  "I had more than one experience at Clear Living and every single one of them were very positive.  As a health enthusiast, I'd recommend the colon hydrotherapy in general, but in particular, Clear Living is self-administered, safe and incredibly comfortable and cozy; not to mention their state-of-the-art technology is ahead of the game! The staff is extremely knowledgeable, pleasant and welcoming. So, if exploring your digestive track with warm water sounds like fun to you, then be adventurous and give it a shot! What do you got to lose but toxins? Maybe parasites... but hopefully not!It's an alternative therapy with many health benefits for the whole body! A wonderful tool." Cesar Teran, Toronto, ON

Colon Hydrotherapy Corrects Constipation

“One of my more significant cases was Tommy, an eight-year-old boy with the most awful constipation anyone could imagine,” says former general surgeon and emergency medicine specialist Paul Flashner, MD, of Wellesley, Massachusetts. Observing their superior results for his patients, Dr. Flashner has recently adapted his treatment techniques almost completely to complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). He has most definitely incorporated colon hydrotherapy as a regular CAM technique. “Tommy’s constipation was really bad. He never had a bowel movement for a week at a time. Recognizing the dangers of physiological toxicity, his parents took their son for consultation with numerous gastroenterologists. The child had been subjected to colonoscopy a dozen times, but nothing could be found as the source of his blockage. Laxatives hardly helped at all. There was no diagnosis except that he suffered severely from constipation,” confirms Dr. Flashner. “Then the parents found their way to me so that the boy might undergo examination and treatment one more time. “I improved the child’s diet and removed all junk foods. Then I instigated an exercise program, had him drink lots of water, balanced his colonic flora, and added fiber food supplements. But most vital for Tommy’s welfare is that he took colon hydrotherapy under my prescription. The beneficial effect was dramatic, for within six months he was experiencing a natural and normal bowel movement every day. No laxatives were involved in his progress,” states Dr. Flashner. “Now the child does not need to consult me anymore; he still continues his colon hydrotherapy. He did this once a month for six months, and currently he undergoes the cleansing just four times a year. It’s now two years and Tommy remains in excellent physical condition. “Colon hydrotherapy is the perfect specific procedure to eliminate constipation and restore normal bowel function. My approach to medical practice is to balance the GI tract using stool testing. I find various pathologies relating to bacteria, yeast, parasites, and other organisms of this nature. A lot of disease comes from imbalances in the colon, as manifested by inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, autoimmune diseases, allergies, multiple sclerosis, and certainly constipation. Such imbalances can be corrected by means of colon hydrotherapy, herbal supplements, and diet,” says Dr. Paul Flashner. “There is no question about the huge difference a health professional can bring to the patient by utilizing colon hydrotherapy plus other complementary and alternative methods of healing.”

Giving Colon Hydrotherapy is Standard Procedure for Sharda Sharma, MD

“I have trained and certified colon hydrotherapists working as part of my staff. Under my supervision for the past year-and-a-half they have been treating constipation, abdominal cramps, allergies, and a variety of other conditions, including ten patients with hepatitis C. These hepatitis patients respond to colon hydrotherapy and do well,” assures Dr. Sharma. “For instance, Felicia, a 42 year-old high school teacher, had suffered from constipation – no bowel movements for six days at a stretch. She was bloated, fatigued, lethargic, headachy, and crampy. My treatment choice for her was enzyme supplements and colon hydrotherapy twice weekly for thirteen weeks. These treatments solved the constipation problem for Felicia. “Colon hydrotherapy is excellent as a treatment for the yeast syndrome. A very anxious 50-year-old female, Sara Audrey, consulted me because she was running to the toilet every two hours with either diarrhea or attempting to find relief from constipation. It turns out that she had irritable bowel syndrome complicated by candidiasis. During the administration of colon hydrotherapy, I observed that she was loaded with Candida albicans. I recognized the white yeast organisms floating through the transparent tube of the colon flushing device,” says Dr. Sharma. “But the patient is now in fine shape – much relieved. She has good bowel movements twice daily with no gas. This is typical of almost all patients undergoing colon hydrotherapy.”

Christopher J. Hussar, DO, DDS, Took Colon Hydrotherapy

From his medical/surgical practice in Reno, Nevada, osteopathic physician and dental cavitation specialist Christopher J. Hussar, DO, DDS, offers the following personal statement, “I myself have enjoyed two colon hydrotherapeutic treatments when I was experiencing partial bowel obstruction. Each colon hydrotherapy session had me feeling better. It’s my belief that this treatment should be recommended for any person who is having chronic constipation. Then, the local colon hydrotherapist can become the main factor in keeping. Colon hydrotherapy is a safe and natural laxative which works better than any other type. that individual comfortable. I maintain that one should do whatever it takes to keep up with regular bowel movements. “In Reno, I refer my patients who are in need of bowel cleansing to a colon hydrotherapist. The only reason that I don’t refer people on a regular basis is that most of them come to see me from out of town. Therefore, I tell them to use the services of a skilled colon hydrotherapist located in their area so that they can go for treatment often,” says Dr. Christopher J. Hussar.

Colon Hydrotherapy Used by James P. Carter, MD, DrPH

“After conducting a comprehensive digestive stool analysis on any patient suspected of having dysbiosis (poor intestinal hygiene), I attempt to clean the bowel by prescribing colon hydrotherapy once a week times three. In my medical practice, I employ a registered nurse on staff to administer this treatment,” says James P. Carter, MD, DrPH, MS, of Mandeville, Louisiana. Dr. Carter is Professor and Head of the Nutrition Section at Tulane University School of Medicine. “Also I use colon hydrotherapy as part of an overall detoxification program, and it may be combined with treatment such as drinking epsom salts, but both are not taken on the same day,” he advises. “It promotes the second stage of liver detoxification to cause dissolved poisons to come out in the bile as a solvent. The patient’s washout at least once a week from below is adjunctive with the epsom salts. “Colon hydrotherapy is an excellent detoxifier for the overindulgence of alcohol and drug addictions of all kinds. Residues of drugs and other agents in the tissues are eliminated with colon hydrotherapy,” states Dr. James P. Carter. “It takes away any desire to use drugs or imbibe alcoholic beverages. Colon hydrotherapy should be part of nearly any addict’s therapeutic regimen.” References
