How much of the intestines are actually cleansed during a colon hydrotherapy session?
During a treatment it is possible for a professional colon therapist to cleanse the entire length of the colon. This depends entirely on the amount of waste packed into a colon, and its hydration level – its readiness and availability to be released. The small intestine is not directly cleansed by the water of a colonic because of the presence of the ileo-cecal valve. The ileo-cecal valve is a one-way valve which does not allow water or waste to pass from the large intestine back to the small intestine. Although we do find that some waste from the small intestine will release during a colonic, to specifically address cleansing the small intestine an oral form of cleansing, using herbs, is necessary.
