Colon Hydrotherapy, in its initial form, was practised in ancient Egypt, several centuries before Christ. Today, Colon Hydrotherapy has been favored by doctors and people in many countries as one of the most popular and effective methods of treatment and prevention in many diseases. In Colon Hydrotherapy, the objective is to rinse the colon by applying filtered hot water from the anus into the colon. During this process, fecal particles are removed from the inner wall of the colon and intestinal bacteria toxins are diluted.
Colon Hydrotherapy improves muscular contractions or peristalsis in the colon, eases defecation and reduces the absorption of toxins. If there is the need to perform a colonoscopy on a patient, the patient is typically instructed to abstain from eating solid food for three days. However, if the patient undergoes colon hydrotherapy, this period will be reduced to under twelve hours. By using the Masstec Colon Hydrotherapy Device, the patient’s colon is completely cleansed in a very short time (a maximum of 45 minutes) and is prepared for colonoscopy. Chronic and drug-refractory constipation, which is a risk factor for colon cancer, can easily and painlessly be cured or controlled by undergoing periodic colon hydrotherapy sessions. Moreover, the reduction of toxins and microbial contamination, and also regulating the natural colonic flora (beneficial/probiotic bacteria) as a result of colon hydrotherapy can create the feeling of well-being, boost absorption in the colon, and also improve the natural operations of the colon and neighboring organs (the liver, kidneys, etc.). Although pharmacological methods are also used to cleanse the colon, they have drawbacks such as being time-consuming, potential drug interactions, creating electrolyte disorders in the body, and restrictions of use in pregnant and lactating women, and also patients with kidney and liver failure. These have led to Colon Hydrotherapy being seen as a healthy and safe alternative
