The Practice

Our Health Mission

Colonics are just one part of a healthy lifestyle. We strive every day to live our lives to the fullest. Be happy. Be healthy. And most importantly to live with intention. It is a motto. It is a mantra. It is a state of well-being. All things that can be achieved with an open mind, a happy heart, and a cleansed spirit.

Colon Hydrotherapy is also referred to as Colonics. It is a process that cleanses, maintains and restores optimum colon health. Many of us have built-up toxins stuck in the large intestine, inhibiting proper nutrient absorption and overloading us with toxins. Through colon hydrotherapy, the body is empowered to properly eliminate toxins with the gentle flow of water.

We offer hygenic, safe and comfortable Colon Hydrotherapy, using disposable equipment and water that has been filtered and purified. Our state-of-the-art, FDA cleared system, allows us to regulate temperature and pressure while maintaining maximum safety. We take great care to provide a beautiful, nurturing, and serene environment within which privacy and a sense of well-being are easily established. You can rest assured that your colonic at Cape Cod Colonics is always a healing experience facilitated by our Advanced I-ACT Certified Colon Hydrotherapist.

The Function of the Large Intestine

Your large intestine, also referred to as the colon, performs the vital functions of absorbing water and minerals from digested food, and eliminating waste. It is approximately 5-6 feet long, 2.5 inches in diameter, and is composed of 3 muscle layers, nerves, blood vessels and mucous membrane lining.

Rhythmic muscle contractions move waste from one end to the other for elimination. A diet high in refined foods, excessive fats, low water intake and fiber, and lack of exercise all contribute to disrupting full and complete waste elimination. Consequently, the colon becomes sluggish, overloaded and toxic, as waste accumulates in its folds and crevices. This polluted environment becomes a fertile breeding ground for a host of harmful bacteria and yeast, whose by-products contribute to the toxic load.

As these poisons are slowly re-absorbed into the bloodstream, vitality and energy are depleted, and a whole array of seemingly unrelated symptoms may appear.

What is Colon Hydrotherapy?

Colon Hydrotherapy, also known as colonics, is a method of removing waste from the large intestine without the use of chemicals or drugs. Colon hydrotherapy is a safe, gentle infusion of warm filtered water into the colon; the waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation, through the rectum. This is a restorative, painless procedure, which is both relaxing and effective.

You may not expect that constipation and bowel issues affect as many people as it does, but one trip to the pharmacy aisle and the number of intestinal regulators and antacids that are available might change your mind. As a society, many people in the United States have poor eating habits. And the poor diet coupled with people’s busy and stressful lives makes us susceptible to bowel problems like constipation and bloating.

Colon hydrotherapy is designed to gently wash away the build-up debris, excessive mucus, overgrowth of yeast and harmful bacteria, restoring the colon to health. The alternating warm and cool water stream and massage can help to restore proper nerve function and muscle tone, thus restoring proper elimination.
