Brawer cites that through colon hydrotherapy, the body is flushed out of the toxins that eventually weigh down on the other organs of purification which include the liver, kidneys, lungs, and the skin. And with the absence or at least lessening of the toxicity in the colon, many illnesses can be avoided.

The colonic Irrigation procedure was popularly used during the 20th century. A medical physician from Battle Creek, Michigan named John Harvey Kellogg used colon hydrotherapy on his patients. He was an advocate of the principle surrounding autointoxication.

An article entitled “Should the Colon Be Sacrificed or May It Be Reformed?” appeared in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1917. Here, Dr. Kellogg related his successes in treating majority of his patients from their gastrointestinal conditions through diets, exercises and colonics instead of performing surgery.

Consequently, the article gained positive reaction from orthodox medical practitioners of the time. And for the next thirty years, the treatment became widely used in many doctor’s offices, nursing homes, and hospitals.

However, scientific articles eventually surfaced which argue that there is insufficient evidence that would support autointoxication. The speculation triggered the declined of the treatment’s popularity.

captaincolon — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 02:04:14 +0000

Some probably might think that enema and colema are one and the same. Definitely not. Enema and colema are administered differently and use different equipments. Enema uses about 2 quarts of water and only gets to clean the lower par of the bowel, not the entire colon. On the other hand, colema uses about 5 gallons of water and gets to clean the entire length of the colon.

Moreover, colema have boards wherein the patient can lie comfortably while water is slowly let into his colon to clean it. The colema board has a hole and a splashshield at one end. The end with the hole must then be positioned on the toilet. This allows the patient to easily evacuate and urinate during the entire session.
