CONSIDER THESE TEN MEDICAL FACTS BEFORE PUTTING OFF COLON HYDROTHERAPY

1- Over one billion dollars a year is spent on so called laxatives in America a year.

2- Try to find a doctor in a thousand that will talk to you about your bowel or bowel management.

3- Over 100 million Americans suffer from bowel problems.

4- Orthodox doctors are experts at cutting out the colon. Try to find one in a thousand that will tell you how to prevent getting your colon cut out.

5- Parasites reside in every dirty colon in America. Try to get one orthodox doctor in a thousand to tell you how to prevent these parasites from living inside you.

6- Rectal/colon cancer is the second leading cancer killer in America. Try to find one orthodox doctor in a thousand who will recommend a colonic or even understands the principle, theory, and practice of colon hydrotherapy in preventing colon cancer.

7- Last year 250,000 Americans had colostomies. Most of them are now walking around with a bag strapped to their sides. The operation could easily cost $50,000 and as much as $100,000. The bags about $70 a week. How many of those people do you think were instructed on how to prevent the need for this procedure?

8- Individuals getting colonics and following a naturopathic lifestyle program do not get colostomies. This condition can be prevented.

9- Six hundred [people die each day in America from rotting colons and no one ever told them about colon hydrotherapy. That's more deaths than in Vietnam, Korea, and all our wars in the past fifty years. Imagine an airplane crashing every day of the year killing six hundred people and no one saying a word about how to prevent it or asking why is this happening?

10- More absenteeism from school and work is due to disturbances of the digestive tract than any other cause.

COMMON QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON COLON HYDROTHERAPY

Question: I understand what an enema is, but what is the difference between an enema and a colonic?

Answer: As beneficial as an enema is, it is very limited in its effect because only a very small amount of water is able to be introduced into the anal canal and lower part of the sigmoid colon. Then it is necessary to sit on the toilet to evacuate after each infusion of water. This is accomplished with a simple home enema bag or Colema board.

With a colonic, scientifically engineered medical equipment, with sophisticated plumbing is used. Pure filtered water is brought safely, comfortably, and hygienically up the full length of your colon and brought back down. Large volumes of water are used over the course of your treatment totaling 8-10-12 and even as much as 15 gallons. It takes a lot of water to begin to soften, breakdown, and flush out years of hardened glue that has attached itself to the walls of the colon, and impacted in the diverticula pockets. It would take between 40 to 120 enemas to equal one colonic in water volume alone. But, the biggest benefit of all is the therapeutic strengthening effect of every muscle in the entire colon. The colonic is designed to restore the colon's natural peristalsis, which is often lost after years of faulty diet, drugs, or constipation.

Question: Are colonics safe?

Answer: Colonic are basically bringing filtered water safely, comfortably, and hygienically up the entire length of the colon and back down again. It is among the safest of medical procedures known. With the new professional colon hydrotherapy equipment, colonics are actually safer than a home enema.

Question: Are colonics painful?

Answer: We've given colonics to our children since they were three years old. They felt so relaxed and comfortable during the treatment that they would fall sound asleep. Colonics are not colonscopies or sigmoidoscopies. A well lubricated speculum is inserted only a few inches into the rectum. No they are not painful, not even to children.

Question: I heard it was possible to catch someone else's germs getting a colonic, is this true?

Answer: If disposable hoses, speculums, and sheets are used this is impossible. Using out dated or home made or nonprofessional equipment or so called colema boards, which is often the case in the underground can be very infectious. Those electing to seek colon hydrotherapy services from the underground are understandingly taking that risk. Let the buyer beware.

Professional medical clinics use modern colon hydrotherapy equipment, disposable, speculums, disposable hoses, and even disposable sheets. With the newly engineered equipment cross contamination is impossible. The designers have idiot proofed the equipment with separate inflow and outflow systems. Unlike the new age underground, professional medical clinics are also inspected by the State Board of Health and the State Board of Medical Examiners.

Question: What do you mean by the new age underground?

Answer: We mean clinics and individuals administering quasi medical treatments illegally. In New Jersey and New York colon hydrotherapy is considered a medical procedure and must be administered under the supervision of a licensed medical doctor. Anyone who is not working under medical supervision is practicing medicine without a license and is committing a crime. Anyone patronizing those who are breaking the law are aiding and abetting them, which is a punishable offense.

Although we do not agree with the law, it is the law. Those in the new age underground are practicing medicine without a licence and are engaged in criminal activity, ignoring the law and hoping they won't get caught.

Question: Is it possible to wash health minerals and electrolytes out of the body doing colonics?

Answer: For years we were of the opinion that colonics could wash some good with the bad. We recommended Jug One and our Intestinal Powder in yogurt, which our patients still do, but in 1988 the national College of Naturopathic Medicine did an in-depth study of seventeen patients doing three colonics a week over an extended period of time. Their conclusion: Colonics produce no appreciable change in electrolytes.

Question: What is considered professional colon hydrotherapy equipment?

Answer: The state of the art professional colon hydrotherapy equipment is Doltola and Toxygen. Both are made in the U.S.A. Professional equipment, unlike what is used in the underground, it is F.D.A. approved. In short: It is a medical device approved by the Federal Government and inspected by the State Board of Health and the State Board of medical Examiners on a regular basis.

Question: What is a Colema board?

Answer: A Colema board is not a colonic, it is an enema. The Colema board was made popular by an ex-associate of mine, Dr. Bernard Jensen in his book entitled "Bowel Management." I begged him to change the name to "enema board." I told him it would confuse people and that some health hucksters would promote them as a colonic, or as good as a colonic, or almost as good as a colonic, etc. Worse of all some people who desperately needed a colonic would think that was what they were getting with a so called Colema board.

It never ceases to amaze me how many people frequent these new age underground clinics thinking they are getting high colonics, when in fact they are getting a low enema.

Question: Doesn't high fiber, herbs, and acidophilus basically accomplish the same thing as a colonic?

Answer: A number of health hucksters, authors, and nutrition gurus have attempted to promote the idea that colonics are only an option, another way to clean the colon. They are all wrong! No disrespect to your favorite health guru, but if he's of that mind set, he's dead wrong! There is nothing like a colonic. Nothing can substitute for a colonic. There's nothing almost as good as a colonic. Nothing cleans the entire colon like a colonic. Nothing regenerates a flaccid colon like a colonic. Nothing creates peristalsis like a colonic. Nothing takes encrusted feces off the colons reflex points like a colonic. Nothing takes putrefactive bacteria out of the body like a colonic. Nothing reduces the body's total level of toxicity like a colonic.

Some of our modern day medical doctors and health gurus, who are ignorant on the benefits of colonics, need to read the old medical and naturopathic literature concerning colonics, which were around long before wonder drugs came into being.

Believe me, we at Abunda Life believe in high fiber, herbs, botanicals, homeopathy, acidophilus, etc. We use tons of them a year in our dispensary. We use them in conjunction with colonics - never as a substitute.

Question: How many colonics will I need?

Answer: The amount of colonics we recommend will vary greatly from person to person. The majority of our patents who have not suffered from a lifetime of constipation, bowel weakness, heavy medications, malabsorption, laxative abuse, recreational drugs, internalization of stress, and other gastrointestinal problems will usually accomplish good colon health, bowel cleansing, tissue detoxification, and normal peristalsis in a series of twelve colonics. We recommend, as does Dr. Norman Walker, Dr. Bernard Jensen, Dr. Henry Lindlahr, Dr. Harvey Kellogg, Dr. Benedict Lust, and many of the old naturopathic writers and authors on colon hydrotherapy, that your treatments be spaced one week apart.

Patients who have suffered with long term colon problems may require two or more treatments a week for a longer duration of time.

Your urine indican test that we do initially will help us determine how many treatments you will need.

Question: What is an indican test?

Answer: Indican is a toxic substance that should eliminate in your bowel. If it shows up above the acceptable norm in your first urine of the day, this is telling us that your bowel is toxic and that it is backed up, and is seeking an alternative means of elimination through the kidneys. This test is a clinical indicator for the number of colonics that may be necessary. The indican test also serves as a feedback mechanism on how well you are progressing in reducing your body's total level of toxicity.

Question: How much does the indican test cost?

Answer: $45. It is insurance reimbursable. It is required your first time because colonics are a medical procedure in New Jersey. We recommend this test after every fourth treatment to monitor your results.

Question: Are there other tests that you recommend that are insurance reimbursable?

Answer: There are over 2500 different diagnostic tests that are available that our outside laboratory we contract with is capable of doing and they are all reimbursable. There are a number of tests that focus on the colon that can be very helpful, including the comprehensive digestive and stool analysis.

Question: After I get through my colon detox series of treatment, what do I need to do to maintain good colon health?

Answer: Periodic follow up treatments are necessary to prevent your colon from gumming up again over a period of time. The purpose of your urine indican testing is to let you know when and how often follow up treatments are recommended. Maintenance is of course a lot easier than therapy, but what it takes to maintain good colon health can vary considerably from one patient to another. Some patients may require at least a treatment a months, while some with no history of colon problems would require maintenance of a treatment every two months. Everyone, including those in excellent health and perfect colons, should get a treatment every three months with the change of seasons.

Question: What medical conditions does colon hydrotherapy treat?

Answer: Colon hydrotherapy is a general health treatment, not a treatment for any specific named medical condition.

Question: How should I expect to feel after a colon hydrotherapy treatment?

Answer: The vast majority of patients feel healthier, lighter, and energetic. Personally I feel much more creative after a colonic treatment. My brain works much better, but about 5% of our patients are so impacted, so toxic that temporarily they feel worse after the first treatment. When toxins get stirred up, it's possible to feel worse, but by the time they take their second treatment they feel much better. Some people get a natural high. Keep in mind that the benefit of the colonic continues immediately after the colonic with additional bowel evacuation for days later as the water from the colonic begins to break up hardened plaque found deep in the colon.

Question: What are some of the health advantages to taking a colonic?

Answer: Indirectly colonics will help every gland, organ, system, and cell of your body. Your colon is your body's sewer system. The health of every cell of your body is related to and dependent on the health of your colon.

I've given colonics to some people whose headaches went away. Others knee pain, back pain, PMS, nervousness, bloating, indigestion, gas, colds, flu, fever, stomach aches, and so many other conditions it seems incredible.

How does this happen and why does this happen? When you bring the body's total level of toxicity down, you free the innate, which is your body's life-force, to restore and heal itself. If your condition is caused directly because of toxins, the condition corrects itself.

Would it be correct for me to tell you that colonics will treat your diseases, aches, and pains? No. Colonics reduce toxicity so that the body is free to heal itself, unencumbered with toxins. If your problem is caused by toxins it will correct itself when we eliminate the cause. I've seen such amazing results from a series of colonic that if I was only allowed to administer one naturopathic treatment it would be colonics.

Question: Who should not take colonics?

Answer: the counter indications for colon hydrotherapy or the people who should not take colonics are: those who have; suffered a recent heart attack, uncontrolled hypertension, hemorrhage, diverticulitis, severe abdominal pain, cancer of the colon or G.I. tract, recent history of G.I. tract bleeding, recent cardiovascular or abdominal surgery, significant changes in bowel activity, severe weakness or debilitation, or inability to get on and off the treatment table by themselves.

Question: What is the fee for colon hydrotherapy?

Answer: As incredible, as unbelievable as it may seem the colon hydrotherapy treatment is still only $70 per treatment ($115 for the first treatment which includes your urine indican test). This represents one of the most outstanding values in the entire medical community.

Question: Is a there a discount for enrolling in the colon detox series?

Answer: There is a liberal discount for enrolling in the colon detox series. The fee is $697 for twelve treatments if paid in advance by cash, check, MasterCard, Visa, Discover Card, or American Express.

Question: How long does the treatment take?

Answer: The actual treatment usually takes between thirty to forty minutes, but you need time to dress and time for your after treatment bowel evacuation. So you need to plan on spending about one hour with us.

Question: How do I make an appointment?

Answer: Our hours are 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Sunday through Friday. We are closed on Saturday. Appointments should be booked a week or more in advance whenever possible to secure your time slot. On your initial visit you need to bring your first urine of the day for your urine indican test. You also need to come in 30 minutes before your appointment the first time to fill out your medical history forms. Payment is made in advance by credit card, check, or money order to secure your appointment. Twenty four (24) hours notice is required on all cancellations.

Question: Is it possible for me to get reimbursed by my medical insurance carrier?

Answer: Colonics are considered medical procedures which are reimbursable. The good major medical insurance carriers will reimburse about 80%. We will supply you with the necessary form called the "super bill" for you to submit to your insurance carrier for reimbursement. In the event your insurance carrier does not pay, or pays only part of your treatment, save your receipts as they are deductible as a medical expense on your taxes at the end of the year.
