What is the difference between colon hydrotherapy, enemas and laxatives?
Colon hydrotherapy is designed to cleanse, hydrate, and retone the entire length of the large intestine (approx 5 to 6 feet) whereas an enema only reaches the lower part of the colon or about 1 foot. Laxatives generally contain drugs and chemicals that irritate the colon walls and are known for dehydrating the bowel instead of hydrating the system as with colon hydrotherapy.
