Colon hydrotherapy and other holistic modalities
Overview of diet and nutrition

Body wraps

Body wraps, such as mud or seaweed wraps, engage our largest organ of the body, the skin. They nourish and detoxify the skin and the internal organs by combining heat, hydration and active agents in the substances used for body wraps.

Mud, for example, achieves the cleansing effect by hunting for free radicals; both mud and seaweed are also beneficial because they nourish the body with micro-minerals.

The other extremely beneficial effect of body wraps is the combination of heat and hydration. This combination has a calming and relaxing effect on the central nervous system. Relaxing the central nervous system means that while the brain and the spinal cord are relaxed rather than engaged, the digestive system can make better use of the blood and oxygen during the colonic treatment.

Performing body wraps after the colonic promotes general body detoxification and speedier recovery.
