Colon Hydrotherapy is a philosophy of life, a way to understand and approach health through internal hygiene. It is a safe, hygienic, painless, odorless, and effective method to quickly eliminate gases and organic matter inside the colon and stuck to the walls of the intestine.
Colon hydrotherapy works through a process which utilizes a double-circuit, sterile, disposable and single-use cannula to carrying out the filling and emptying of the large intestine. We use water that has been previously filtered, purified and sterilized in our naturalization biological industrial plant and ozonized without any chemicals.

Although waste is evacuated daily, over time toxic organic waste accumulates and becomes embedded in the walls and folds of the colon and is absorbed back into the bloodstream. Modern and denatured food, poor eating habits, inadequate water intake and stress, amongst many other factors, can be the causes of various health issues. In addition, the accumulation of waste can lead to putrefaction, alteration of the bacterial flora, malodorous gases and swelling of the belly.
Colon hydrotherapy is beneficial for people who are health-conscious, are in good physical condition, and understand that good internal hygiene is fundamental to one’s overall well-being and vitality.
Since it is the safest and most effective method to quickly, easily and safely remove waste stuck to the walls and in the folds of the colon, there are people who also use colon hydrotherapy as a starting point for fasting, detox diets, liver cleanings, etc. As the launch point for cleansing, colon hydrotherapy aids in making purifying processes more effective and pleasant.
To briefly summarize, the colon, or large intestine, is the last section of the digestive system where substances that have not been absorbed by the small intestine go.
In the first half of the colon a large amount of water is absorbed in the chyle to compact the stool and is then stored in the second half of the colon until it is evacuated.
Evacuation occurs through the peristaltic movement of the colon. However, it is important to know that for peristalsis to properly develop and be as effective as possible, must be avoided industrialized food and sedentary life must be avoided, as they directly affect its proper functioning.
Additionally, the colon can also have an abnormal anatomy that limits correct digestive health:
A megacolon, a dolicocolon or diverticula, is prone to the accumulation of organic matter at the intestinal level, producing various digestive disorders that will affect a person throughout their entire lifetime and will be more or less severe according to the person’s eating habits and intestinal hygiene.
Therefore, if the large intestine does not evacuate adequately in quantity and frequency, the colon will accumulate waste, thus altering the balance of the bacterial flora. This balance is of vital importance since the bacterial activity in the colon has many functions, such as the production of Vitamin K and vitamins of group B. In addition, it is responsible, together with the lungs and the kidneys, for maintaining a correct acid-balance and preventing the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria.
Ideally, one should experience 2-3 bowel movements per day that are neither too hard nor too liquid. When one feels the urge to use the bathroom, they should not hold it in and should immediately use the bathroom to facilitate quick, painless evacuation. The fecal material should be brown in color, and if one maintains good hygiene and nutrition, the bowel movements should odorless and should not experience gas nor belly swelling. One should feel an immediate sense of relief and wellbeing after experiencing a bowel movement.
Constipation means to experience infrequent bowel movements or bowel movements that are hard to pass. Someone who eats 2-3 meals day, should evacuate 2 to 3 times a day, if their food and water intake are correct. Eating habits, deficient water intake, lifestyle (sedentary or not), drug use amongst other factors, will affect a person’s regularity.
Constipation can occur with a lack of regularity (the person can take several days to evacuate) or with difficulty to expel stool, either by its hardness or lack of intestinal tone.
As a result, faeces accumulates in the intestine, causing bacteria and yeasts to increase, ferment and putrefy at the intestinal level, which generates acid waste and gases that irritate and inflame the intestinal mucosa.
Added to this, part of the toxins generated in the intestine will be reabsorbed by the bloodstream, leading to the appearance of various discomforts and organic disorders over time.
In a healthy organism, intestinal flora is the bacteria and yeast that live and work in the colon. Their total weight is about one kilo to one and a half kilos. When in the colon is in optimal hygienic conditions and biological balance, intestinal flora is generated permanently and naturally.
It is important to take care of the probiotic bacteria of your organism through a careful diet, a diet that is not lacking in fresh fruits and vegetables. This is the ideal way to keep your organism biologically healthy and vital.
Prebiotics are the essential food of your intestinal flora. Therefore, it is very important to make an abundant diet of raw and fresh fruits and vegetables to have the appropriate prebiotic intake and maintain your colon in optimal biological balance.
When our diets are rich in fresh fruits and vegetables, our water intake is sufficient, and our lifestyles active, the probiotic bacteria in the colon will be healthy and in perfect biological balance, and we will not feel gas nor bloating. However, when we experience discomforts such as excessive flatulence, smelly stools, swollen belly, abdominal heaviness, slow digestion, bad breath, physical fatigue or other discomfort, our body is warning us that something is not right in our internal environment.
Therefore, if we want to improve our organic environment, we must always start with colon hygiene to eliminate organic waste and make the appropriate changes to our diets.
No, not at all, since the lack of hygiene can be the source of gas, belly swelling and other organic disorders typical of a state of excessive fermentation or putrefaction. Therefore, proper internal hygiene will always be biologically healthy for our probiotic bacteria.
As we have commented throughout this page, the diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables together with an adequate hygiene of the colon is the "fundamental pillar" to have a healthy bacterial flora and in optimal conditions.
Autointoxication is an accumulation of organic waste that is again reabsorbed by the bloodstream. And although our body is a perfect machine and its organs of excretion work without ceasing 24 hours a day to eliminate these wastes, they do not always achieve it.
You have to think that nowadays, other factors such as pesticides, self-medication, industrialized food, chemical additives or dyes, among others, that can collapse our emuntories, are added to bad eating habits. And these chemical or synthetic substances are reabsorbed again by our bloodstream, causing symptoms of physical and mental discomfort, simply by a lack of proper hygiene.
The toxins accumulate in the large intestine as a result of a set of factors that we discussed previously (stress, consumption of acidifying foods such as sugar, meats, flours, caffeine, alcohol, self-medication, etc.).
When the pH of the large intestine is altered by this acidity, it generates a substance that lines the intestinal walls as a protective mechanism, and this is called "mucoid plaque". This substance prevents the proper absorption of vitamins and nutrients, which leads to chronic malnutrition (it eats a lot but is poorly nourished). She is the typical person who is always tired or easily exhausted.
When the large intestine becomes toxic, the quality of our blood is altered and the toxins are spread to other organs and tissues. All this process leads to our filter, the liver, to purify an overloaded and toxic blood that over the years will prevent its proper functioning. And all this, over time, will be named after some pathology, being able to avoid in 90% of cases simply changing to healthy habits.
Of course yes; Our organism is like a small gear clock. If one fails, the rest will fail.
We must know that the liver is the body's main detoxification organ, with more than 500 known functions. It is a gland that filters more than 2000 liters of blood per day and its function is so important that without the liver we could not live more than 24 hours.
But the liver, like the colon, is also affected by bad eating habits, stress, negative emotions and feelings, self-medication and various factors already mentioned, causing liver malformation, greater accumulation of waste and all its consequences.
But the importance of the liver goes much further, simply because among all the organs of your body, the liver is the general commander. If your liver does not work properly, it will alter the function of your gallbladder and also your kidney function, causing a state of acidosis and all the consequences that this entails: decalcification, dermatitis and all kinds of degenerative processes, including cancer.
Do not forget that a drop of blood that goes through the big toe will take only 20 seconds to reach your eye, therefore, the main filter of the blood should be kept in optimal conditions of hygiene to maintain a correct state of health and wellness.
That said, it will be understood that it is vital to maintain a colon in optimal hygiene conditions to prevent the toxic load that accumulates in the colon from entering the bloodstream, thus affecting liver function.
In addition, it has been shown that constipation produces pressure in the liver, irritating both the liver and the gallbladder, preventing the proper secretion of gastric juices and promoting the appearance of numerous digestive disorders.
Yes. The lymph is a system parallel to the circulatory system whose main task is the transport of nutrients from the blood to each of the cells, but in turn also eliminates part of the waste that is produced at the cellular level in the intestine.
If the walls of the colon are impacted by aging organic matter, these wastes will be retained by the lymphatic system in areas that will become storage pockets that will accumulate more waste in the large intestine. This storage will make the lymph thicker, and if added to this we do not have a sufficient intake of water, we will lead our body to a state of dehydration that can depress our immune system, with the serious consequences that this entails.
Yes. 70-80% of our immune system depends on a healthy colon and optimal hygiene conditions. The intestinal epithelium is a barrier against microbes, since the mucosa is connected to our immune system through the T and B lymphocytes, which constitute our defense mechanism, essential to prevent infections. We must know that the large intestine is the organ of the body that contacts the largest number of antigens, being essential to protect its proper functioning.
In addition, the bacterial flora that lines the walls of the colon exerts a defensive function against external attacks, and only in a biologically healthy colon will effective immune responses be produced.
Acid substances and toxic compounds that we ingest habitually involuntarily, are harmful to our body and specifically to the colon, which under these circumstances, secretes a mucous substance called "mucoid plaque" that lines its walls to protect from that state of acidity .
These toxic substances come from a modern and industrialized diet; refined foods, preservatives, dyes, drugs, drugs, alcohol, heavy metals, some microbial activity, and even by toxins produced by incomplete digestion.
When these substances end up in the colon, it generates a protective film that isolates these toxic substances from the intestinal mucosa, a film which, as we have said, we call "mucoid plaque". But this intestinal coating, in turn, prevents the colon from functioning properly, making osmotic exchanges difficult, the production of bacterial flora, the synthesis of certain vitamins, and even a poor response to our capacity for self-healing.
In healthy organisms, this mucoid plaque is eliminated in days by the enzymes of the pancreas, returning normality to the digestive system. But most people, unwittingly and unknowingly thanks to advertising and misinformation, permanently consume denatured foods, preventing the pancreas from being able to eliminate the constant formation of this mucoid plaque, sometimes becoming so thick that it becomes difficult intestinal motility.
As we have said repeatedly throughout this website, the most important thing is the internal hygiene and eating habits, avoiding frozen foods, refined, processed, manipulated or loaded with chemical additives.
Over time, the formation of this mucoid plaque causes various dysfunctions such as:
- A slowing down of intestinal transit
- The fermentation of accumulated waste, which will generate gas and belly swelling
- The indigestible bolus becomes sticky and although the peristaltic movement is displacing it, a significant amount of organic matter remains adhering to the walls and the folds of the colon
- Dehydrated stools become difficult to expel, producing persistent constipation
- The pressure generated by this accumulation can produce diverticula (sachets filled with fecal matter), which could lead to inflammation, infection and final diverticulitis
- And this toxic process could end in an ulcerative colitis, an irritable colon, or a more serious degenerative process
And all this for not taking into account that hygiene and food are essential for our well-being.
The concept of cleaning the colon dates back to 1500 BC. and has accompanied the man since then throughout history. Currently there are several mechanisms, the technique of the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® being the most effective, simple, hygienic, painless and safe method.
No, at the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® it is not at all. The cannula is applied with total delicacy and is painless.
When the colon is in normal conditions of hygiene and is evacuated regularly, the session is comfortable and pleasant, and is not uncomfortable.
But in an organism collapsed by an inadequate diet, constipation, swelling and abundant gases, there is always an important accumulation of organic matter in its walls and folds, and therefore it will not be as comfortable; In those cases, the discomforts will improve as you get rid of the wastes that are impacted on the walls and folds of the colon.
As the session progresses and the colon is in better hygiene conditions, the session is more comfortable, and the result at the end of the session is profound inner peace and general well-being. It is always essential to follow the feeding guidelines indicated previously and in a personalized way to avoid as much as possible symptoms of discomfort during the session.
Before beginning the process, a thin cannula is introduced through the anal sphincter (which produces no pain) and then the water is allowed to enter smoothly and at a controlled temperature manually and electronically. This special double connection cannula allows, on the one hand, the entry of purified, sterilized and naturalized water from our purification and ozonation plant. And on the other side, through a secondary hose, it allows the exit of already dissolved waste that is eliminated from the walls and folds of the colon.
If you are a woman, during the whole session you will be accompanied by female staff so that you feel comfortable and safe. Or by male staff if you are a gentleman.
At the end of colon cleansing you will find yourself in perfect condition, with a feeling of deep well-being, ready to continue with your usual tasks.
In the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® it is absolutely hygienic and safe. You have the absolute guarantee of security and 100% of satisfaction. There are already more than 150,000 colon hydrotherapies performed and as the only side effect you will experience a deep state of peace, relaxation and well-being at the end of the session. And this is not accidental; it is the fruit of a rigorous, exhaustive protocol, and of a daily and documented quality control of all our work.
We are the only colon hydrotherapy company in Europe with a biological industrial plant for naturalization, ozonation and water sterilization, among many other characteristics. Our 4 cabins and bathrooms are washed, sterilized and sealed before each use. For this and much more, the health inspection has given us an "excellent".
But the best is not only in our facilities; Our team is our best heritage, ethical, professional and experienced, which will make you enjoy a unique experience of deep wellbeing, as this is part of their philosophical way of living. We wait for you and prepare to live your best experience.
Not at all. The colon hydrotherapy is a hygiene technique aimed at people who are in a correct state of health.
Colon hydrotherapy can be performed by anyone evacuating without bleeding and without pain. If you have any doubts, call us and ask us about your particular case; You will find ethical information, it would be, truthful and transparent.
Although there are different types of enemas, the main differences are that while the objective of the enemas is to help empty the intestinal tube light from the recent residues that can accumulate due to constipation, the colon hydrotherapy goes further, releasing the organic matter that remains stuck in the walls and folds of the colon, something that can not be achieved with a simple enema or with the old colon hydrotherapy equipment that needs 3 sessions to be able to make the complete colon route.
The performance of the enemas is usually chemical (for the substances used) while the colon hydrotherapy acts mechanically (in the European Institute of Colon Hydrotherapy only filtered, naturalized, sterilized with ozone and ionized water is used), stimulating the peristaltic movement of the large intestine, without damaging the bacterial flora or irritating the intestinal mucosa.
Laxatives empty the colon for a short time, as well as unhealthy for its bacterial flora. They act producing a thin aqueous substance that slides through the colon but is unable to eliminate the dry and impacted residues that are stuck in the walls and folds of the colon.
Colon hydrotherapy uses purified water that does not irritate the colon mucosa, and its most important benefit is the hydration of the intestinal tube.
The preparation will depend on each particular case, since each of us have different needs, according to the particular anatomy of your colon, eating habits, water intake, number of daily evacuations and a long etcetera. That is why, once you have requested your appointment, our specialized staff will adapt the preparation to your particular case.
Absolutely. The indications for your previous preparation will be enough to make your session comfortable and effective.
Not at all; nobody comes accompanied. At the end of your session you will find yourself in fantastic conditions to continue your normal life.
Yes always. At the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® you will be permanently assisted by our professionals. You will not feel uncomfortable at any time since during the whole session you will be covered and covered, and the session will be carried out with maximum hygiene. We are also users of colon hydrotherapy and we understand your possible concerns regarding your privacy. And for that reason, if you are a woman, you will be attended by female staff.
At the European Institute of Colon Hydrotherapy, water quality is a priority. We are the only center specializing in colon cleansing in Europe that has a biological industrial plant for naturalization, ozonation and water sterilization.
In addition, we perform daily internal analyzes, and control of water quality by external audits in laboratories that comply with ISO Quality Standards.
Of course yes. Also, you notice it and it feels clear. The equipment used by the European Institute of Colon Hydrotherapy differs from current and conventional equipment in that the latter need to perform at least 3 sessions to perform the entire route of the colon, and still not always achieve it, while modern equipment used in the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® realize the complete route of the colon from the first session thanks to the systems FullWithdraw and GasExtraction, realizing a cleaning in depth that will offer you immediately a state of relaxation and deep well-being.
No, colon hydrotherapy only cleans the large intestine because in our intestinal anatomy there is a valve between the small intestine and the colon called the ileocecal valve or Bauhin valve, which prevents the return of the chyle (body fluid that occurs during digestion), also preventing the water applied during the session from going beyond the large intestine.
In most cases it will be enough and will leave feeling a deep state of inner peace and well-being. In other cases it will depend on each particular case.
There are people who evacuate with normality and adequate frequency, however, other people for different reasons, do not evacuate with that normality; It may be due to inappropriate habits or many other factors. However, even in these cases, at the end of the session you will feel a deep state of well-being if you followed the preparatory indications prior to colon hydrotherapy, which we always indicate in a personalized way depending on your particular case.
The colon never becomes empty unless you perform a fast, since it is an organ in constant use; every time you eat a digestive bolus that ends in the large intestine is produced. But as the goal of colon hydrotherapy is to cleanse that which is adhering to the walls and folds of the colon, as the impacted organic matter is eliminated, you will feel a deep and growing state of well-being. Only a colon in optimal conditions of hygiene and biological balance will report health and vitality.
At the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® there is no specific time since each person has different needs according to their anatomy, their eating habits and a long etcetera. At the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® we have 4 modern cabins with permanent sterilization so as not to be limited in time and dedicate ourselves completely to your individual needs. Our goal is that you, at the end of the session, have experienced the best experience of peace and well-being.
As we have said before, colon hydrotherapy is a philosophy of life. Each person adapts the sessions to their particular needs, since each case is personal and non-transferable.
Yes, we can guarantee that from our experience and technology, with a single session of colon hydrotherapy you will leave with a deep state of peace and well-being that probably has not felt for years. From here, maintaining that state of well-being will depend on your emotions and good eating habits.
The answer is categorical: NO, not at all. The colon hydrotherapy will not solve your constipation, nor your skin problems, nor that long etcetera.
that you imagine or that you may have read, since this will depend on your eating habits, on your correct water intake, and also of your emotions among many other factors.
Colon hydrotherapy is a hygiene technique such as a sauna or a steam bath. It enters into the philosophy of life of certain people, and it is they who, based on their individual desires, decide how often to carry it out. If your doctor has recommended it to you, consult him.
As we have mentioned in other previous points, colon hydrotherapy is an absolutely hygienic technique; the person is not stained, there are no smells, and does not require a subsequent shower (although in our facilities we have several showers and other facilities).
Of course not. In the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon® hygiene and sterilization is our one of our strengths, and precisely for this the health inspection gave us an "excellent"; We use new, sterile and disposable kits for each person. Our modern equipment is washed automatically and manually to ensure complete hygiene and disinfection before each use.
The booths are sealed and flooded with high concentrations of Ozone for 3 minutes, to then be sucked in by a powerful industrial extractor of high power up to 20 times per minute, making you enter a totally fresh room, disinfected and sterilized before each use.
The same protocol is given to the bathrooms, which are washed, sterilized and sealed before each use, thus ensuring maximum hygiene and disinfection before and during the entire session.
At the same time, in the European Institute of Hydrotherapy of Colon®, in all the facilities, it has this system of extraction, sterilization, renewal and disinfection of the air.
It is not necessary to repopulate the intestinal flora, nor is it necessary to take probiotics after a session of colon hydrotherapy, since the cleaning does not drag the intestinal flora, since it is an internal shower without any added substance, and therefore the only will be eliminated are toxic waste and dead intestinal flora resulting from the cell renewal itself (all cells in our body are born, have their life cycle and die).
Only in specific cases in which you have excessive intestinal gas would this supplement be recommended. Although always, the most appropriate and healthy is a diet rich in raw and fresh fruits and vegetables.
As we have commented in numerous previous points, after a session of colon hydrotherapy you will feel fantastic, relaxed and with a feeling of deep general well-being to continue with your habitual life.
At this point it is necessary to know what is the normal diet in each person. The most advisable is an adequate diet to restore the correct biological functioning of the colon. We are always going to give you some personalized indications based on the type of organic matter that you eliminate during the session to adapt them to your individual needs.
Of course, since you will be in optimal conditions to continue with normal life.
Of course not as long as you have followed the individual and personal indications that we have indicated for your particular case before your session. You, after the session, will be relaxed, at ease, and with a fantastic feeling of well-being. It is important that you follow the indications that we give you at the end of your session since it will depend on this state of well-being to be maintained over time.
Each person is different since several factors will influence such as eating habits, water intake, metabolism, emotions, etc. The normal thing is that it takes between 3 and 6 days to evacuate again, since the complete emptying of the colon has occurred, which must replenish its circuit through the various meals that it subsequently makes.
It must be borne in mind that in the colon hydrotherapy session the colon is completely covered, and when leaving the tube light empty, it is necessary to give it a time to redo the stool. This will also depend on each person, since there are people who have a very fast intestinal transit with respect to others. Here it is of fundamental importance to make a conscious and careful diet for 7 days to make the most of its wide benefits.
Colon hydrotherapy is a hygiene technique and therefore has no negative side effects. If you do the proper preparation as indicated individually and personalized in each particular case, you will always feel a sense of relaxation and general well-being. Only in poorly prepared organisms can discomfort be experienced.
Colon hydrotherapy is a hygiene technique that provides local hydration without dragging flora or disturbing its osmotic balance. The amount of mineral salts that can be eliminated during a session are very similar to those that are eliminated with daily stools, and will quickly replenish them with a correct diet. It is not necessary to take mineral salts to replace them but it is important to make a healthy diet.
No. The colon hydrotherapy cleans and empties the light of the intestinal tube by eliminating the organic matter accumulated in the walls and folds of the colon, eliminating more or less quantity depending on how appropriate its preparation has been, since each case is individual and differs from person to person.
It is evident that the person experiences an immediate corporal lightness, but it must be borne in mind that overweight is not only in what accumulates in the large intestine, but in the fat and fluid retention of the body, or because of bad eating habits. , lack of exercise or constitutional tendencies among other factors, including emotions.
Colon hydrotherapy will only be a good start for those people who are willing to switch to healthier eating habits and a lifestyle that helps maintain a proper emotional state, but colon hydrotherapy will never be the solution to your overweight.
The immediate loss of weight that you may experience will be the amount of organic matter that has accumulated in your intestinal tract and in the walls and folds, although once you return to make several meals, your intestinal circuit will again contain your usual weight. Only if you have a lot of toxic load on the walls and folds of the colon, you will experience a slight decrease in your weight, although it is precisely this toxic load that prevents you from properly assimilating the nutrients.
You can perfectly perform colon hydrotherapies during menstruation, thus helping to reduce the cramps and inflammation that often accompany it. The rule is a depurative process, and when accompanied by a hygiene technique such as colon hydrotherapy, the body is grateful for this help. For your comfort and tranquility, our female staff will advise you in that regard.
Punctual diarrhea can occur due to several factors: poor food, incomplete food digestion, intestinal parasites, pathogenic bacteria, antibiotics, food allergies, etc. But a chronic diarrhea may be indicating something more serious.
Although colon hydrotherapy would facilitate the elimination of the toxins that are irritating the intestine, we always recommend that you consult with your specialist doctor who knows your medical history.
We do not recommend it. You should consult with your specialist who is carrying the pregnancy so that you can indicate if you consider it appropriate or not.
We do not recommend it. In any case, check with your specialist.
If you have been suffering from constipation for years, the first thing you should do is change your eating habits. Colon hydrotherapy can be done as long as you have made the decision to make those changes, and depending on the organic matter that you eliminate during your session, we will help you make the most appropriate changes for your particular case.
Of course colon hydrotherapy can be helpful, using the technique and doing the proper preparation, although you have to know that alone will not be enough.
Colon hydrotherapy is a hygiene technique that does not cure or resolve any pathology. This will depend on your emotions and eating habits, and in these cases you should always consult your dermatologist.
The colon hydrotherapy not only does not create dependence, but on the contrary, helps tone the intestinal muscles, helping to maintain or recover the peristaltic movements necessary for a proper evacuation.
If you have any type of pathology, you should consult your doctor before thinking about getting a colon hydrotherapy.
Undoubtedly it will be useful; What's more, if we want to make a 100% effective and beneficial fast, we should always start with a colon hydrotherapy.
Of course it will be of inestimable help but always without replacing the preparation that your specialist doctor has indicated. The colon hydrotherapy can be useful to have the colon in better conditions of hygiene, but always following the instructions of your doctor and consulting it previously, since in this case it is your doctor who knows your medical history and your real needs.
Yes you can make several sessions, but it is advisable to prepare with adequate nutrition to experience the beneficial effects of this technique.
Any person who is going to evacuate without bleeding and without pain can get a colon hydrotherapy. Even so, we will always recommend that if you have any pathology or organic disorder, consult with your family doctor who knows your medical history.
You should visit several centers to discover for yourself which offers the best service and maximum guarantees.
