Finding a Colon Hydrotherapist

I am not looking for recommendations from this group of enthusiasts. I just want to know if anyone has met the same situation as I have.

I asked my chiropractor for recommendations on colon hydrotherapists in my area. He stated he looked through his list of contacts, but could only find places that offered colonics as well as massages. He could not find practitioners who only focused on colon hydrotherapy and as such, felt uncomfortable in making a recommendation.

First, is the trend on colon therapy leaning towards adding in massages and other services? Second, has anyone had a colonic from both a hydrotherapist only and a practitioner who offered colonics as well as massages/other services. If so, can anyone tell a difference in the quality of the colonic between the two practitioners?

As a side note, my chiropractor didn't bat an eyelid when I asked for a recommendation. He didn't ask me why I thought I needed a therapist either.

There is a colon hydrotherapist in southern Maine USA. They are on route 236 in Eliot, could be Kittery. I've never been there but might possibly go one of these days. If any of you have been there, can you please describe your experience?

Some colonhydrotherpists work in spas or naturopathic clinics that offer massage and other legit services as well. Shared overhead. Doesn't mean you have to book both a colonic and a massage, just that it's available. Never done it, but I've heard relaxing with a massage before a colonic is sometimes recommended.

@annie3434. There are some other threads about experiences with colonics. Find out if they use an open or closed system. If you have the option, pick a closed system. An open system is like a continuous enema with expulsions while the water continues to run in. Closed systems have a larger speculum that allows water to run in, then, at your direction or a prescriped pressure level monitored by the operator, they stop the fill and allow release through the speculum. I've had both, and highly prefer the closed system - unfortunately, there isn't one within a hundred miles of where I live. Both are comforting and relaxing. Good luck, I think you'd enjoy it!!

Like the others here, mine have been usually in chiropractors’s offices, all closed systems but one but I had no idea they were called closed until starting Zity 9 years ago. All those were using the colonic machine with brushed metal face with the fluorescent backlit clear glass window showing your outflow running through the tube behind it. Mine were all trained therapists working independently in the other type healthcare (chiro……., naturopath, etc.) offices. I just adored every one starting in about 1975, even the very first one.

Does anyone have perhaps a very good or their best way to find a colonic administrator nearby? Been here a much longer time than I ever wanted or expected, but no colonics so far. Just search for colonic, or enema nurse, or hydrotherapy? Thanks,

Search for colon hydrotherapy in your area. Some naturopaths provide “gut health” and offer colonics but don’t specify it on their websites. Our population here is about 120,000 and I believe there are only three.
