Frequently Asked Questions

We provide colon hydrotherapy to adults (age 18 & up) who are:

• generally healthy and want to experience the detoxifying and hydrating benefits of a colonic.
• suffering from digestive issues such as constipation, gas, bloating, IBS-type symptoms.  
• Cancer and Lyme Disease patients for detoxification
• paraplegics and quadriplegics for bowel training purposes

Colon hydrotherapy is perfectly safe for most individuals, however there are some health conditions (see intake form) that would prevent someone from receiving a colonic. Every client is required to complete our intake form for our Certified Colon Hydrotherapists to review prior to their session.  If there is any reason that your Colon Hydrotherapist feels you are NOT a candidate to receive a colonic, you will be referred back to your healthcare provider for further evaluation. 

Some insurance plans may cover colonics. You will most likely need to have your reason for receiving a colonic documented in your health history with your healthcare provider in order to receive a diagnosis code. While we do not accept insurance at this time, we can provide you with a receipt for your records.

Our LIBBE open system device is specifically designed to contain all waste eliminated from the body in a safe and sanitary manner when used properly. It is equipped with a ventilation system that eliminates ALL ODOR, and there is a sprayer hose provided for your convenience to rinse off at the end of your session.

Not at all. Your modesty is protected at all times. Each client is given a private room. You will be instructed to disrobe from the waist down, or if you wish, we can provide you with a hospital-type gown to wear. Once you are positioned on the LIBBE and have inserted the rectal nozzle, a disposable paper sheet is provided to cover yourself. We also have small throw blankets to use upon request, if you get chilly. Your Colon Hydrotherapist will step out of the room after providing you with preparation instructions. There is a "call" button when you are ready for the therapist to return to your room.

In order to get the best results from your colonic session, we recommend drinking 3 to 4 liters of water and consume a lighter, healthier diet 24 hours prior to your session. Try not to eat anything for 2 hours before your scheduled session. Avoid animal proteins, heavy starches and processed foods. This regimen is also recommended for the 24 hours following your session, with the addition of probiotics to repopulate your colon with good bacteria. Avoid alcohol for the remainder of the day, as the effects could be stronger after a colonic.
