 Florida Colon Hydro Therapist, Colon Hydrotherapy Colonics for Cleansing
Colon Hydrotherapy treatments are solely for prevention and colon cleansing and detoxification and are in no way a substitute for traditional, allopathic medical care.
Every time we put off the need to move our bowels, we are telling our colon that it is not important, that we don’t have the time, and eventually the neurological impulses stop and we have trained our colons to be constipated.
I was drawn to the practice of colon hydro therapy when it was presented during a session at my Massage Therapy School.

 Colon Hydrotherapy
Many of these clients claim that due to colon hydrotherapy, they have been able to live their lives without drugs, tranquilizers, muscle relaxants and pain killers.
Historians tells us that the practice of Colon Hydrotherapy or, in its most basic form the enema, was first used by the ancient Egyptians.
Colon Hydrotherapy eventually gained the attention of James A. Wiltsie M.D., who contended that "our knowledge of the normal and abnormal physiology of the colon, and of its pathology and management, has not kept pace with that of many organs and systems of the body".

 National Cancer Institute - Colon Cancer Treatment
Patients whose colon cancer spreads or recurs after initial treatment with chemotherapy may be offered further chemotherapy with a different drug or combination of drugs.
Cancer has spread beyond the innermost lining of the colon and/or rectum to the second and third layers and involves the inside wall of the colon and/or rectum, but it has not spread to the outer wall or outside the colon and/or rectum.
Radiation therapy or chemotherapy may be offered to some patients as palliative therapy to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.

Following treatment of colon cancer, periodic evaluations may lead to the earlier identification and management of recurrent disease.[11] The impact of such monitoring on overall mortality of patients with recurrent colon cancer is limited by the relatively small proportion of patients in whom localized, potentially curable metastases are found.

 CCNetwork - Recurrent Colon Cancer

In summary, for patients with colon cancer isolated to the liver who are unable to undergo surgical removal of the cancer, hepatic artery infusion improves response rates and prolongs survival when compared to no treatment and may produce a minor survival advantage compared to patients treated with systemic 5-fluorouracil chemotherapy.
Highly selected patients with isolated areas of colon cancer can be cured if the primary cancer in the colon and the isolated area of cancer outside the colon can be surgically removed.

 INTRODUCTION
Colonic hydrotherapy, unlike the use of laxatives, is not habit forming and actually improves the tone of the colon.
The colonic itself will take 30-45 minutes during which time water will be gently introduced into the colon via the rectum whilst your therapist uses special massage techniques to stimulate the release of stored matter.
Your visit to a registered colonic therapist will involve the taking of your case history followed by an explanation of the procedure.

 Colon Cleansing: Natural Health for your intestines
Colon cleansing uses natural health and herbs to help your body to heal health problems which are often related to a colon which is not functioning as nature intended.
It stimulates the muscular movement of the colon and over time strengthen the muscles of the large intestine, halts putrefaction and disinfects, soothes and heals the mucous membrane lining of your entire digestive tract.
Using Colon Cleanse Formulas #1 and #2 (as above) without heavy juicing, raw fruits and vegetables etc. will likely produce results such as 2-3 bowel movements each day, better energy level, improvements with headaches, female problems, male problems, and numerous other benefits, but the colon will still be largely uncleansed.

Colon cancer may be treated with external radiation.
Stage I: In stage I, the cancer has spread beyond the innermost lining of the colon to the second and third layers and involves the inside wall of the colon, but it has not spread to the outer wall of the colon or outside the colon.

 Colon Cleansing

I believe the benefits of colon cleansing are many, not only in terms of health, but also as it relates to appearance: the skin looks vibrant; cellulite, water retention, and blemishes disappear; and the whites of the eyes regain a youthful clearness.
When you have cleansed your colon and restored the balance of the good and bad bacteria, when you have adequate production of enzymes and your dietary intake and internal production of vitamins is correct, your food intolerance should greatly improve or disappear.

 eMedicine - Atresia, Stenosis, and Other Obstruction of the Colon : Article by Jeffrey Zitsman, MD
Survival of patients with colonic atresia and stenosis is related to the patient's condition before surgery, technical difficulties with bowel reconstitution, sepsis, and associated anomalies (Ameh, 2000; Dalla Vecchia, 1998).
Colonic atresia, like all other intestinal atresias, is fatal if the obstruction is not relieved.
Colonic atresia was first recorded in 1673 (Oldham, 1998); however, no patient with the condition survived until 1922, when Gaub recorded a successful case in which he performed a colostomy.

 Chapter 5 - Laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of colonic polyps
Developments in laparoscopic colonic surgery have contributed to the application of this approach to the resection of colonic polyps [3-14].The laparoscopic approach has introduced two technical challenges; firstly the localization of the polyp and secondly its proper surgical extirpation.
According to the preoperative location, the affected colonic segment was approached by the so-called laparoscopic “dissection facilitated” procedure.
Methods: Indications for surgery were the existence of a colonic adenomatous polyp that could not be resected by colonoscopy in a total of 20 patients, because of size or difficult location (n=18) or polyps in combination with diverticulitis (n=2).

 Virtual Hospital: The Motility of the Gastrointestinal Tract: Chapter XI
The peristaltic reflex, characterized by a contraction rostral to a point of mechanical stimulation, such as a pinch, and a relaxation caudal to that point, seems much more variable in the colon than it is in the small intestine.
The use of intraluminal manometry, the recording of intraluminal pressures, to assess the motility of the colon and anorectum provides the best idea of the way the organ works, but it falls far short of the ideal.
In the colon beyond the hepatic flexure, the same investigators who first described antiperistalsis in the right colon in experimental animals observed only orthoperistalsis, rhythmic ring contractions that move always toward the anus.
