Dangers Of Colonics

I read about colon hydrotherapy and its many benefits and I try. However, I recall hearing that people w / abdominal hernia are not candidates for this purpose. My doc said I had a small umbilical hernia near my home I remember correctly, but nothing serious. However, I want to be cautious. Everyone knows the dangers of colonics for people w / abdominal hernia'a? (Doc no avail and I called a few clinics, but without success ..... have appointment) Just need an answer like, today! Thank you all! :)

If you need an answer like today, I propose to postpone the appointment until you have more information about your health and colonics. My opinion is that nonprofessinal hernia and abdominal colic is not a good combination. However, ask an impartial professional. That's what they get plenty of money for.

About 8 years ago, I went through a phase of using enemas and later "graduated" to colonics for chronic fatigue that I was suffering from. I found the colonics I feel very good for one day, maybe two. Then my health problems would return. Colonics was only a temporary solution.

I heard a woman with a spastic colitis, which had to be hospitalized after a colonic. The link below is probably strongly biased against colonics, but you might want to take a look. http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=na ...

A colonic is a procedure very healthy for anyone, it's bad for so many people are so skeptical. I take a colon once a month and an enema and off between the two.

There are currently no known benefits of a colon. You should not have even if you're healthy and if you have abdominal problems, then you should not.

Forget cleaning the colon, they have zero health benefits, but many risks.

From Wiki:
"No scientific evidence supports the purported benefits of colon cleansing. The intestine itself is not dirty and drugs limitation or disease, cleans naturally without the need for assistance. Some types of cleaning colon present potential hazards and the equipment used in colon cleansing has caused damage to the rectum, colon cleansing, in a small number of people and caused amebiasis when improperly sterilized. enema preparations for Some been associated with heart attacks and electrolyte imbalance. Frequent trading may interfere with the proper functioning of the colon and can cause dependence on laxatives or enemas to defecate.

"Cleaning the colon is not necessary that the body naturally eliminates waste. Cleaning the colon may disturb the balance between bacteria and natural chemicals in the gut, and may interfere with the ability to remove the colon cells dead. Other rare but serious complications include gastrointestinal perforation from an incorrect insertion, and amoebic infection from improperly sterilized equipment. Some colon cleansing plans to disrupt the electrolyte balance which can lead to dehydration and salt depletion, while repeated or excessive cleansing programs can lead to anemia and malnutrition. The excessive use of enemas has also been associated with heart problems such as heart failure and Heart attacks linked to electrolyte imbalances when used with coffee. "
