Jan. 30/08 – Sometime last week, my mom asked me if I had ever heard of Colonics Therapy since she wants to try it. Upon doing research on this topic, I learned more and realized that there are 2 systems: closed and open. I called two clinics, one offering the closed system and the other, the open system. I wanted to find out the difference. The one my mom plans to go to is the closed system but I seem to like the open system more. She finally went through the procedure and was very satisfied with it. Very conscious about health, my mom encouraged me to go through it as well.
This morning, I went for my first colonic cleansing appointment. The good news is that it’s “totally painless.” The tube they used is the size of a pen only and only goes in 1.5 inches (lubricated, so there was no pain at all). The “open” system I am on is actually very relaxing and private (there was no one else in the “room”). I was lying comfortably on a slanted board attached to the toilet, totally relaxed and spent my waiting time tinkering with my BB. I was at the clinic for 35 mins because that’s how long it took to pump 20 gallons of warm purified water into me. Obviously, the same 20 gallons + some solids came out around the same tube right into the toilet. My tummy got a bit full then everything else happened “automatically.” No effort required at all. I can’t actually even say that it was uncomfortable. If anything, just imagine that you really need to go to the bathroom but can’t find a clean public bathroom, therefore you have to hold and hold till you get home. Imagine how you would feel “seconds” after you sit on your home toilet. Feels relieved and good, right? Well, that’s exactly the feeling. I can tell you right now, the thought of my body being flushed and cleaned makes me feel really good…. :))))
The therapist, Terry, was really nice. She explained everything very well before the procedure making me comfortable. I am not gonna bother trying out the “closed” system at the other place anymore. In that system, you are on a flat massage table and the therapist is there the whole time to monitor the water level and massages your tummy for you. I prefer the privacy of the open system more.
So, the conclusion is YES, I will continue doing this quarterly as a regular body maintenance and YES I do highly recommend it to everyone!!!! :)))))
