Are there circumstances when Colon Hydrotherapy is not advisable?
Yes. Certain conditions such as active infections, active inflammation (such as in Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and diverticulitis), a painful fissure or painful hemorrhoids mean treatment cannot be comfortably carried out until they are healed or are in remission. Diseases such as congestive heart disease, severe uncontrolled hypertension, severe anaemia, liver cirrhosis, kidney disease, severe hemorrhaging and colo-rectal cancer are also contra-indications for treatment. Some physical conditions such as severe abdominal or inguinal hernias make it an unsuitable treatment. Pregnancy is not advised in the first and third trimesters.
