Some people attend a colonic hydrotherapy treatment without making any dietary adjustments beforehand, without realising that if they had made some simple changes to their diets ahead of time, they’d get even more out of their appointments.
Let’s look at some of the simple things you can do.
Hydrate, Hydrate, hydrate!
The best thing you can do before a colonic hydrotherapy treatment is drink at least 2 litre of water 24 hours before your appointment.
This is really beneficial because not only will it hydrate you but it will also help to move fecal matter along, which is extremely helpful when it comes to releasing toxic matter.
Colonic hydrotherapy is wonderful at hydrating the body at a cellular level but you don’t just want to be hydrating for the whole or most of the session, you want to release as well.
Avoid or reduce caffeine, alcohol and carbonated drinks
Greatly limiting or avoiding alcohol and caffeine at any time is a step in the right direction but it is highly recommended before a colonic hydrotherapy treatment.
Why? Because these beverages act as a diuretic and are very dehydrating to the body and irritating to the gut.
Carbonated drinks produce gas in the digestive tract which causes bloating and can make a colonic treatment very uncomfortable and less effective.
So to get the most out of your treatment drink up the water, herbal teas, fresh fruit and vegetable juices.
Eat light, clean foods before your Colonic Hydrotherapy treament
Consuming lots of green vegetables a day or two before your treatment is ideal.
This is because they are high in fiber, which aids in constipation relief and helps the bowels flow more regularly.
Think of eating light, clean foods as grooming and supporting a good elimination, while alos hydrating, nourishing and feeding the digestive system the nutrients, vitamins and minerals it needs.
Above all else, stay away from junk food
One final thought is that if you can cut out or cut down on heavy, fast and/or processed foods, sugar, meat, dairy, and gluten before your colonic hydrotherapy treatment, you’ll avoid putting extra pressure on your digestive system which may cause bloating, gas and/or constipation.
When you have a gut system in that poor state, it can potentially make the colonic treatment uncomfortable and inefficient.
As you can see, the tips above are not all that hard to put into practice but will definitely make sure you get optimal results and the best possible experience during your colonic hydrotherapy treatment at Detox Colonics.
