Colonics are a gentle and effective way to cleanse the bowels of toxins that build up in the colon.  When these toxins can no longer be effectively eliminated through the large intestine, they can cause “auto intoxication” (the poisoning of one’s own system through un-eliminated toxins).  This results in a wide variety of symptoms which may include aching joints, headaches, poor concentration, mood swings, PMS, lethargy, fatigue, etc.  Many diseases may also be linked to auto-intoxication.  Colonics themselves are not a cure for any disease, but they can aid the body’s natural ability to heal itself by temporarily removing the overload on the system caused by the toxins.
