What hydrocolon therapy is and how it works<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hydrocolon therapy is a painless procedure to take care of intestinal well-being. A real whirlpool is performed on the mucous membrane of the colon, which is often irritated or congested due to bad habits such as sedentariness, unhealthy eating habits, smoking and stress.<\/p>\n

As a result of a non-regular lifestyle or chronic intake of medication, so-called intestinal dysbiosis, an alteration of the bacterial flora, can develop. This condition is at the root of numerous complaints such as bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, exhaustion, mood swings and sleep disturbances.<\/p>\n

In women it may favour recurrent cystitis and candida infections, while in men it may increase the risk of prostatitis.<\/p>\n

What to do first, what it consists of, duration and contraindications<\/h2>\n

No special dietary restrictions are required before the procedure; it is recommended to eat a light meal in the previous 2-3 hours<\/strong>. The treatment can be performed at all ages, with the patient's condition being assessed on a case-by-case basis.<\/p>\n

During the session<\/strong>, water is introduced through a small rectal cannula while gentle abdominal massages are performed to promote distribution along the intestine. The flow is controlled for pressure and quantity, allowing a gradual cleansing action that favours the elimination of waste and residues.<\/p>\n

The session lasts approximately 50 minutes<\/strong> and involves alternating cycles of filling and evacuation. At the end there is a feeling of abdominal lightness and general well-being.<\/p>\n

The procedure is comfortable, with no odour or discomfort. It is normal for there to be no evacuation for 2-3 days afterwards, so taking milk enzymes may be recommended.<\/p>\n

Hydrocolon therapy has a\u2019deep cleansing action<\/strong>It stimulates peristalsis, promotes the elimination of toxins, gas, mucus and bacteria and helps rebalance intestinal flora. It also improves blood circulation and nutrient absorption.<\/p>\n

Some studies show a correlation between balance of the gut microbiota<\/strong> and prevention of metabolic and neoplastic diseases. The treatment can therefore contribute to the maintenance of general health.<\/p>\n

Two or three sessions spaced several weeks apart are recommended, with annual recalls.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The main contraindications are inflammation or neoplasm of the colon and heart failure.
\nBefore treatment, an examination with the spa doctor is always planned<\/strong>, which assesses suitability, indicates the frequency of sessions and provides post-procedure guidance.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":11009,"template":"","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11488","cure","type-cure","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/termechianciano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cure\/11488","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/termechianciano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cure"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/termechianciano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cure"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/termechianciano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cure\/11488\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12670,"href":"https:\/\/termechianciano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cure\/11488\/revisions\/12670"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/termechianciano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11009"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/termechianciano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11488"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
