Colonics

A colonic (also called colonic hydrotherapy or colon irrigation) is the infusion of water into the rectum by a colon therapist to cleanse and flush out the colon. Colonics and enemas both aim to cleanse the colon by introducing water by way of the rectum. Although the two methods are similar in approach and in their health benefits, there are some distinct differences between colonics and enemas. Enemas involve a one-time infusion of water into the colon. Colonics involve multiple infusions of water into the colon. The main objective of enemas is to evacuate the lower colon, while colonics are meant to cleanse a larger part of the colon. The colonic is more thorough and may be more beneficial depending on what the problem and illness is. Unlike enemas, which can be performed at home with the help of do-it-yourself kits, colonics require specialized equipment and must be administered by a trained colon therapist. During the colonic warm, filtered water is slowly released into the colon. The water causes the muscles of the colon to contract, called peristalsis. Peristalsis "pushes" feces out through the hose to be disposed in a closed waste system. During this process, the colon therapist may apply light massage to the client's abdominal area to facilitate the process. You’ll want to find an experienced colonics therapist that knows what she/he is doing. The therapist should ask you questions about your health history to be sure there are no contraindications for you to receive the colonics. In addition, the therapist should perform a simple external

check of the colon and intestine, as well as a very simple rectal exam to be sure conditions are right for you to receive the colonics. You’ll also want to find a therapist who will use MMS1 in the colonic at your recommendation. They may or may not be experienced with MMS1 (you can direct them on how to use the drops). Be sure to double check that they are using good water and not water from the faucet as it will generally have chlorine and/or fluoride in it. Routinely they will have you put on a gown and lay on a table for the colonic. I suggest that you use 20 drops of MMS1 (activated MMS) for the first time and 50 drops of MMS1 the second time. If all goes well and you continue with colonics, you can go up to 100 MMS1 drops for subsequent colonic sessions. (This amount of drops is for 20 to 25 liters/quarts of water. If more water is used in the colonic the drops can be adjusted accordingly.) Remember, there is a lot of water used in a colonic, so this amount of MMS1 is not a problem.
