PRE-COLON
HYDROTHERAPY PREPARATION
Colonic Preparation
- Please have a light
meal or a healthy snack two to three hours before your appointment.
After that, have no more solid food prior to your colonic. You may
have some juice or water just before the appointment, if desired.
(Note: If your colonic is part of a half-day spa package, it is
important that you have a regular meal before your appointment,
to avoid any light-headedness. You may eat up to 1 hour before your
appointment, in this case.)
- Avoid gas-forming foods
the day before your appointment. Bananas beans, broccoli, cabbage,
carbonated beverages, cauliflower, cucumbers, melons, raw apples
or onions, peppers, and unripe fruit typically trigger gas. Avoid
these or any foods that cause gas for you.
- The Cayce readings
suggest that applying a castor oil pack for an hour on three days
in a row before your appointment will facilitate your most effective
colonic. The Cayce readings also recommend consuming a half-teaspoon
or so of cold-pressed (extra virgin) olive oil after each pack.
POST-COLON HYDROTHERAPY SUGGESTIONS
- Avoid gas-forming foods
for two days after your colonic session. Bananas, beans, broccoli,
cabbage, carbonated beverages, cauliflower, cucumbers, melons, raw
apples or onions, peppers, and unripe fruit typically trigger gas.
Avoid these or any foods that cause gas for you.
- Eat yogurt with live
cultures for several days and have plenty of fruit, vegetables,
salads with olive oil dressing, and whole grains or animal protein.
- Between meals, drink
a minimum of 48 ounces of water a day.
- Avoid strenuous exercise
the day of your appointment.
- Your next elimination
is usually within one to three days.
- Please call if you
have any questions (757) 437-7202.
