Do I need a special diet?

Yes.  We recommend avoiding heavy, processed foods and following a healthy diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins.

When should I start this diet?

A couple of days before your procedure

When should I stop eating and drinking?

It is best to have nothing to eat or drink for at least two hours before your procedure. This helps with any nausea and limits food digestion during the procedure.

What should I wear?

Wear loose and comfortable clothing so you can leave the upper half on. Don’t worry we have sheets and blankets for your bottom half to keep you warm and protect your privacy.

What about my medications?

Keep taking any prescription medication as usual. Your therapist will discuss this with you at your first appointment.

What if I’m pregnant?

Colonics are considered safe after the first trimester and can greatly benefit mum and baby due to the removal of toxic waste from mum.

Can I have a colonic during my period?

Yes, you can, and that is a great time to have a colonic.  Your colonic may help with bloating. PMS, headaches etc, during your cycle.

Should I consult my Doctor or Natural Health Practitioner before having a colonic?

Yes. We recommend that you have these conversations. as each individual is different, and your practitioners will know your complete history.
