Local cost of colon hydrotherapy (colonics)

This is just an informal poll. Please let us know how much you pay for a colonic session (in local currency) and where that is. Please give a general location. I know pricing is different in, say, NYC versus Nebraska or London versus Liverpool.

I'm not looking for business names, just geographical variations in cost. Please do not include gratuity unless it's included.

Over the last 5 years or so, I have paid

US$55 in a clinic in the Mid-cities area of Dallas-Ft Worth, TX in the last 3 years

US$50 to a woman who administered them in her apartment in Sana Monica, CA

US$55 to a store front clinic in Santa New Port, CA

All were administered by a woman and all were about 1 hour long and very satisfying...none involve anything more than a colonic irrigation

$65 per session in brea ,ca

$75.00 per hr. northbrook, Il

80.. over in Connecticut if you get the right one...

A few deep Enemas at home clean me out good enough; if not, I do a few more. For the cost of one colonic, a person can buy some nice Enema equipment.

I'm with illfer on this one. The last time I had a colonic in this area was in the 70's, and they were around $30.00 then, that would be in the north Dallas area, I imagine they are around $65.00-$75.00 now. For that price I can cobble together good parts and make my own bag, and still have enough left for lunch.

Philadelphia $75 to $95

The times that I have sought out a Colonic I have been looking for a thorough cleansing administered by someone else. It’s the administration that’s the turn on for me. There’s a whole different dynamic to an enema or a colonic when someone else is controlling the flow, retention and expulsion.

I’ve often felt that when I take a session of three 2qt+ enemas, and my returns are clear that I was getting completely cleansed, but if you read enough of the Colonic sites you will see that they claim that a colonic is deeper some even talking about the large number of gallons of water involved in a colonic. I once went to a clinic in New Port Beach, CA (mistype pervious post on this thread) ;with the goal of determining whether I was getting cleansed thoroughly.

You could say that I put my butt on the line in the interest of science, and I took a 4 bag session the night before and then went to the appointment the next afternoon. The clinic had a machine with the lighted tube and you could see what was coming out of the colonic.

I told the therapist what I was interested in understanding and she said it was fine with that as she said she often took enemas herself, solo when she didn’t have time for a full colonic. We talked a little about the continued use of daily or near daily enemas ever making you dependent upon them (I’m 50+ years into that test without any evidence that I’m unable to resume normal bodily funcition when ever I stop taking enemas) she indicated that as long as you expelled with some effort using your muscles and retained long enough to get mild cramping (peristaltic action), she didn’t think that there was any harm at all.

She administered a colonic that was basically the same as all the other’s that I had been given and the returns in the tube showed that indeed if I took a service of enemas and my returns were clear, I was getting just as cleansed as I could with a colonic.

What you guys are saying about the cost of enema equipment vs the cost of a colonic is valid, right up to the time when the therapist tells you to put on the gown, and then lifts that gown, parts your cheek and inserts the speculum and then controls the flow. You just can’t beat the personal touch of someone else parting your cheeks and controlling your filling and retention.

My very first colonic, many years ago, involved a colonic being administered by a man and his wife in their “home clinic” which ultimately led to me having an ejaculation while filling. It was a one-time event that I have never been able to repeat but I never schedule a colonic without the faint hope in the back of my mind that the this therapist might also be willing to help me expel my semen along with the colonic.

IMHO...the cost benefit ration of Colonics vs enema equipment just doesn’t compute.

Folks, I appreciate your opinions of colonics versus home enemas. Thank you for your opinion but please keep on topic. Prices and location, that's the topic.

Southern California. 50-80 dollars for a one hour session. I would say the average is 65-70, probably more in the trendy areas like Santa Monica or Beverly Hills.

Throughout the Intermountain West, colonics go for 55 to 75 bucks. I have found that "Groupon" offers for 1/2 price colonics are usually for open system or "Libbe" providers. Utah, Arizona, and Nevada are havens for day spas and natural health businesses. Most of the major cities and towns have providers. Those providers in Scottsdale, Arizona are usually on the higher end price wise. The same seems true in Southern, California.

South west uk saw today advertised at £65 for 1 1/4 hours

It was around $70 for a hr in nc last year

I recently went to an Enema Nurse in NYC who gave enemas, closed colonic irrigation, massage, prostate massage, happy ending. All is a la cart.

Straight colonic $100 for an hour.

Enemas, 2 for $80 then $30 for each additional

About $80

I dont have colonics regularly as I prefer to give myself an enema in the privacy of my own bathroom.

I used to but it became too much of a hassle.

I've been paying $95 for closed system colonics at Detoxforlife in Scottsdale. Angelica gave me the most recent one three weeks ago. I would pay over $100 because she's very good. It never hurts, and it's more like getting a relaxing massage. She also administers hospital style cleansing enemas for patients going for medical procedures of the lower rectum. They cost $85. I've had only one of those, and those are a little uncomfortable.....as hospital size cleansing enemas tend to be.

I know most of the ones in San Antonio wanna charge for two back to back sessions for more than $100, sometimes even $200. But there is one outside of town that charges about $85 for a closed colonic. However, you do need a prescription for one in Texas, which means another $30-50. Seems a little too steep for me.

The places around here (Seattle/Tacoma) that say they use closed systems are all in the $105+ range. Seen some Groupons in the $50 range, one for a place that says Libbe, other doesn't say much of anything.

I figure that I can do a Libbe-style colonic in the bathtub with a colon tube and a 5 gallon bucket.

Central Oregon - $75.

125 in Boston

Philadelphia, PA area $90-$125 closed systems
