Colonic Irrigation
Water is fundamental to life, forming the basis of health and vitality. Harnessing the natural cleansing properties of water, colonic irrigation is a therapeutic process that promotes digestive health and overall well-being.
The Angel of Water system, an advanced, gravity-fed colon hydrotherapy device, represents the pinnacle of this practice, offering a dignified, safe, and effective method for internal cleansing.
What is the Angel of Water System?
The Angel of Water system is an open-design system that uses warm, filtered water to gently cleanse the colon. This method is not only highly effective but also prioritises patient comfort and dignity.
Although the treatment is self-administered, the practitioner will be on hand should you need assistance. The process involves the gentle introduction of water into the colon to stimulate natural peristalsis, the muscular contractions that aid in the elimination of waste.
As the water softens and loosens built-up waste along the colon walls, the body releases it naturally, resulting in a thorough cleansing experience.
Benefits of Colonic Irrigation
Enhanced Digestion
By removing waste and toxins, colonic irrigation can improve nutrient absorption and alleviate symptoms of bloating and constipation.
Skin Health
The removal of internal toxins may lead to clearer, better hydrated and healthier-looking skin.
Weight reduction and flatter stomach
By removing waste and toxins, colonic irrigation can improve nutrient absorption and alleviate symptoms of bloating and constipation.
Pre-Procedure Preparation
The Angel of Water system is commonly used before medical procedures like endoscopic or radiological exams, ensuring the colon is clean and prepared.
Improved Energy Levels
By removing waste and toxins, colonic irrigation can improve nutrient absorption and alleviate symptoms of bloating and constipation.
Preventative Care
Regular sessions may support long-term digestive health as part of a balanced lifestyle.
Other benefits may include:
A reduction of cellulite, improved colon rhythm, relief of colitis and gastritis, relief for patients who suffer from genitourinary disorders, activation of venous and lymphatic circulation, a feeling of cleanliness and lightness and improvement of the water balance in the body.
What to Expect During a Session
For first-time visitors, the appointment may last around 60 minutes, including consultation time to address individual health concerns and ensure the treatment is tailored to the patient’s needs.
A typical session lasts approximately 35 to 40 minutes. The process begins with the patient lying comfortably on a specialised treatment table. A small, sterile rectal nozzle is inserted around 1.5 inches into the rectum, and a gentle flow of gravity-fed water at body temperature (37°C) is introduced.
This stimulates peristalsis, encouraging the colon to release accumulated waste and toxins. The process is repeated throughout the session to achieve a comprehensive cleanse from the rectum to the cecum.
Preparing for Your Appointment
To optimise your session:
- Hydration: Drink at least two litres of water or herbal tea daily in the days leading up to your appointment.
- Dietary Adjustments: Avoid red meat, processed foods, dairy, sugar, and alcohol for 24-48 hours before your session. Focus on light, nourishing meals, and refrain from eating solid foods for at least two hours before treatment.
- Clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothing for ease during and after the session.
Aftercare and Recommendations
Post-treatment, it’s essential to allow your body time to adjust:
- Stay Hydrated: Replenish lost fluids with purified water, herbal teas, or electrolyte-rich drinks.
- Eat Light: Opt for steamed vegetables, soups, or well-chewed raw fruits. Avoid greasy, processed, or spicy foods.
- Rest: Your body may feel relaxed or slightly fatigued; adequate rest will support recovery.
- Monitor Bowel Activity: It may take a day or two for normal bowel movements to resume as the colon gradually refills.

Additional Insights
While colonic irrigation offers significant benefits, it is not a cure-all. It should complement a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet rich in fibre, regular hydration, and physical activity.
Some clients choose to combine sessions with detox programmes for enhanced results.
It’s worth noting that colonic irrigation is not for everyone, and individual experiences may vary. Consulting a qualified healthcare professional can help determine if this therapy aligns with your health goals and needs.
Book Your Session
Please note that bookings for colon hydrotherapy sessions require a minimum of 24-48 hours’ notice to ensure adequate preparation and optimal treatment efficacy. We recommend scheduling your appointment accordingly.
