Frequently Asked Questions

Colonics, also known as Colon Hydrotherapy or Colon Irrigation, is a method of removing waste from the colon without the use of drugs or laxatives. It hydrates the colon by infusing filtered water into the rectum, through a sterile rectal-disposable speculum. In a closed system there are two separate lines—water in, and waste out—to prevent any possible contamination. In the Open system, the sterile rectal-disposable speculum is one line of water in. The fecal matter is softened and loosened, which allows the peristalsis action to act. The fecal matter naturally moves throughout the colon and is evacuated. This process is naturally repeated several times during the session.

Colon Hydrotherapy is helpful with the following disorders: Constipation, Diarrhea, Flatulence, Headaches, Hemorrhoids, Intestinal parasites, Indigestion, Skin problems, and Weight problems.

Although we make no medical claims about what colon hydrotherapy can do for you. Colon hydrotherapy is a valuable procedure used to assist the body in cleansing, also a great option prior to colonoscopies. By doing this, the entire body can function better. We can only share results we hear from our clients. The benefits that clients have felt after their sessions are:

Energy/Less fatigue | Improved bowel movements | Less bloating and gas | Mental clarity | Sinus drainage | Better immune system | Relief from headaches | Relief from allergies | Relief from low back pain | Reduction of menstrual cramps | Weight loss | Better absorption | Fewer food cravings | Less inflammation/body aches | Heals digestive issues

Colon Hydrotherapy is most effective when paired with a healthy lifestyle!

Closed System: At the beginning of your session, you will be taken into the colon hydrotherapy room. Your therapist will do a thorough consult and walk you through the process, instructing you on how to insert the nozzle yourself and how the system works. To make sure you fully understand and feel safe. After giving you instructions, the therapist will begin the session facilitating the session, through a series of fills and releases. After 30- 40 mins the therapist will remove the speculum and leave the room so you may have privacy so you may release the excess fecal matter and water on the toilet.

Open System: At the beginning of your session, you will be taken into the colon hydrotherapy room. Your therapist will do a thorough consult and walk you through the process, instructing you on how to insert the nozzle yourself and how the system works. To make sure you fully understand and feel safe. After giving you instructions, the therapist will leave the room and you will disrobe from the waist down, sit on the system, insert the nozzle and cover from the waist down with the provided blanket. You will then call the therapist with the call button that is on the system and the therapist will begin the session. Water will flow from the nozzle into the colon causing the process of peristalsis to begin and you will naturally eliminate waste into the system. The therapist will make sure you are taken care of during the entire session while also allowing times of privacy.

Every person’s health goals are different, and the number of sessions depends on the individual. It takes more than one session to cleanse your system. After all, you have had the same colon since birth, and it has taken years to get your body in the state it is in now. Most people benefit from a series of six sessions. After your first session, the colon hydrotherapist will discuss what is recommended for you. Colonics can be used as part of any regular maintenance program.

Client Testimonials

I have been a client at Refresh Your Soul for over three years.  I get a monthly colonic and sauna session.  When I first came to Wendy, I sought relief from chronic constipation and bloating.  With Wendy’s guidance and experience, I began my monthly sessions of colonics.  I was nervous and unsure, but Wendy quickly made me comfortable with the treatment I would be receiving. Over three years later, my constipation is gone, and the bloating is almost non-existent.  At 53 years old and in menopause, I feel healthier and better.  I am at a comfortable weight and with Wendy’s encouragement, I have changed my diet and use fiber and a greens supplement in smoothies.  I look forward to her cookbook that is coming out so I can incorporate her recipes into my diet.  I will always be a work in progress, but the Colonics have helped me achieve a level of health I had not experienced in a very long time. The staff at Refresh Your Soul is friendly and knowledgeable and works hard to make your experience good. The office is clean and organized.  Wendy is caring and educates by learning new techniques to help her clients.  I enjoy my time with her, and I always leave feeling refreshed and renewed. Thank you, Wendy, for always helping people and being a true joy to your clients!!
I can't thank Wendy enough for her help in resolving my chronic constipation issues. I had been suffering from this problem for over 15 years. Despite seeing several doctors, I was always told to "drink more water" or "eat more fiber." I forgot what normal digestion should feel like, and I had almost given up hope of finding a solution until I discovered Wendy and Refreshing Your Soul. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable and at ease, which is a huge feat considering most people don't like to discuss their bathroom habits. Wendy took the time to listen to my concerns and worked with me to develop a targeted testing plan to determine the root cause of my issues. The colonic hydrotherapy sessions also relieved my symptoms and improved my overall digestion. Thanks to the expertise of Wendy and the care of her team at Refresh Your Soul, I am now feeling much better and finally free from the discomfort of chronic constipation. I finally know what it is like to feel normal and at ease. I highly recommend Wendy and Refresh Your Soul to anyone struggling with similar issues and looking for a natural and effective solution. Thank you again for everything!
