Colonic

Avoid heavy, greasy, or spicy meals for at least 2–3 hours before your appointment. Skip alcohol and caffeine beforehand, and drink plenty of water up to 2 hours before your session. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. The simpler your preparation, the better your experience will be.

Yes — a light meal is fine. Just avoid eating a large or heavy meal within 2–3 hours of your session. A light snack or small meal earlier in the day is perfectly acceptable.

Wear something comfortable and easy to change in and out of. Loose-fitting clothing works best. Everything you need for your session is provided at our facility.

Many clients describe feeling lighter, more comfortable, and refreshed. Increased energy and an overall sense of well-being are common. Some clients feel tired immediately afterward, which is completely normal — rest if you need to.

You may notice a temporary reduction in weight from the release of waste and water, especially if you've been experiencing bloating or constipation. This is not fat loss — only accumulated waste is eliminated. Many clients feel lighter and less bloated, and this can be a positive starting point as part of a broader wellness routine.

Yes. Eat at your normal meal time and choose light, nourishing foods — salads, soups, broths, fresh fruit. Avoid heavy, greasy, or spicy meals for the rest of the day while your body adjusts.

Light movement like walking or gentle yoga is usually fine. Avoid intense workouts, heavy lifting, or exercises that strain the abdomen for the rest of the day. If you feel tired, rest — your body is continuing to process.

It depends on your goals and how your body responds. Some clients feel significant relief after one session; others benefit from a short series. First-time clients often begin with 2–3 sessions spaced a few days apart. Your therapist will suggest a plan based on your individual needs — there is no pressure to commit to a package.

Some clients come to us experiencing bloating, constipation, fatigue, sluggishness, skin concerns, headaches, or general abdominal discomfort. If any of these sound familiar, a wellness consultation can help you understand whether colon hydrotherapy may be a good fit.

Many clients report improved comfort, clearer thinking, reduced bloating, and a greater sense of energy and balance after their sessions. Colon hydrotherapy is best viewed as one part of an overall wellness routine rather than a standalone treatment.
