When the colon is irritated by diet, stress, drugs, chemicals, and other substances, it tries to protect itself by producing more mucus. This additional mucus can bind with the sludge from refined foods, such as white flour, and build up on the wall of the bowel, narrowing the lumen. This layer of gluey, hardened feces can weigh several pounds and is a good place for harmful organisms to breed. Do not think because you have regular bowel movements, or even diarrhea, that you have escaped this problem. The stool can pass daily through a dirty colon and leave the accumulated residue on the walls behind. The local effects of this poisonous residue are irritation and inflammation of the colon: the general reactions include diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, headaches, dull eyes, poor skin, spots, aching muscles, joint pains, and depression.
Colon cleansing is the first step on the road to recovery. When you have cleansed your colon and restored the balance of the good and bad bacteria, when you have adequate production of enzymes and your dietary intake and internal production of vitamins is correct, your food intolerance should greatly improve or disappear. We believe the benefits of colon cleansing are many, not only in terms of health, but also as it relates to appearance: the skin looks vibrant; cellulite, water retention, and blemishes disappear; and the whites of the eyes regain a youthful clearness. Many of our elder clients report a dramatic relief of aches and pains in their back , chest and joints. Others noticed a dramatic increase of energy and mental awareness.
At DKA we use medicated oils, kashayam (herbal decoction) as well as light massage techniques, to dislodge toxic waste matter adhering to the walls of the colon. The dislodged fecal impactions are then gently washed away through the systems waste disposal hose. Each colon therapy session lasts for approximately 45 mins. A series of eight separate therapy sessions may be recommended, to achieve the maximum cleaning benefit. This helps to eliminate fecal matter which may have been lodged for weeks, months, or even years. After the initial secession of vasti treatment, you may be well advised to seek follow up treatment every six month. In this way you can maintain the benefits you have achieved during your first treatment session, as well as maintain a strong functioning colon.
