The effects of colonics can differ from person to person and can also vary from one colonic session to another. It is best to approach the procedure without preconceived expectations that cannot be guaranteed. However, some people report feeling more energetic, less bloated, mentally clear, and lighter after the procedure. Moreover, colonics can have a cathartic effect. In some cases, a colonic session may be intense and leave the individual feeling fatigued. In such instances, it is advisable to go home and rest. It is important to note that the outcome of each colon hydrotherapy session may vary.

There is no need to worry about the safety of colonics. At Colonics Sydney, we take pride in following rigorous regulations set forth by NSW Health. Your safety is our top priority and we always prioritise it. If you feel uneasy during the treatment, please feel free to halt the session at any point.

At Colonics Sydney, we offer a unique method of Colon Hydrotherapy known as the Woods Gravity method, which does not involve filling the colon with water. Instead, this method relies on activating peristalsis, the natural muscular contractions that occur in the digestive tract. We do not use machines, pumps or pressurised water in this process. By regularly cleansing your colon with our method, you can strengthen and rehabilitate your colon. As a result, you may experience increased bowel movements due to improved peristalsis.

We suggest you wait an hour after your treatment before eating, to allow your body to rejuvenate before undergoing digestion again. Please avoid alcohol, sugar and processed foods as they can cause inflammation. Bone broth, soup, or a simple meal of protein and salad/cooked vegetables is a good choice after a colonic but do listen to your body - eat only if you're hungry. Remember to drink plenty of filtered water too. Aftercare will be provided to you after your session.

It's important to note that laxatives are not a solution to constipation. In fact, they can worsen the problem by not addressing the root cause of gut issues. Laxatives require water to work, which can lead to dehydration and further constipation. It's crucial to find ways to improve gut health and promote regularity without relying on laxatives to avoid exacerbating the issue.

No. Whilst highly beneficial, your first and/or one colonic does not fully clean the colon or 'reset' the gut. Rehabilitating the gut is a multi factorial process that often requires multiple sessions.

If it is your first time at the clinic please arrive 10-15 minutes before your appointment to fill out a New Client Form. Preparation before a colonic is relatively simple! Please refrain from eating for 3 hours before your appointment. If you want to drink any liquids such as hot drinks, juices, smoothies etc. please do so 1 hour beforehand. Water is fine right up until your appointment but we ask that you don't consume/scull large amounts just prior. A deposit has been paid to secure your booking. You can pay the remainder of your colonic with cash, bank transfer or EFT upon completion of your treatment. The way you feel after undergoing Colon Hydrotherapy can differ and is dependent on your individual health journey. You may experience a sense of lightness and vitality, fatigue, weariness, or simply feel indifferent. Colon Hydrotherapy (colonic) is a detoxification process that may or may not cause some discomfort afterwards. We will provide you with Aftercare information which includes detailed solutions if you are to experience any after effects. We will also provide dietary suggestions post colonic. It is wise to avoid processed foods, alcohol and soft drinks after your colonic and instead consume bone broth, soup, good quality protein and stay well hydrated.

$150 per session.

Though Woods Gravity Colonics are safe and effective, we do not introduce colonics during pregnancy. Existing clients may be seen at our discretion.

There is a misconception that having daily bowel movements means you do not need a colonic. However, this is not necessarily true as even a daily bowel movement does not guarantee a healthy stool. We are exposed to toxins on a daily basis, and our colon may have remaining waste that cannot be eliminated naturally. It's like a toothpaste tube that still has paste left inside even after squeezing it out. This waste can harden and cause various issues. Colonics are not just beneficial for bowel health but also for mental health, reducing gas and toxins, and improving skin inflammation. The benefits are endless!

During your colonic session, your therapist will be able to observe the results, but you will not. If you're curious, we can arrange to have parts of the session filmed. However, please keep in mind that while we strive for ideal results, every colonic may not yield the same outcome. Additionally, filming during a session may not always be possible.

Colon Hydrotherapy is a common, extremely effective solution for constipation, and we believe that Woods Gravity Colonics offers the most effective treatment. We can attest from years of clinical experience that colonics are the best way to relieve fecal impaction caused by hardened stools and are more effective than laxatives. If you are suffering from constipation, we can also provide you with our Constipation protocol to address your needs.

It is possible for Woods Gravity Colonics to effectively eliminate solid waste and gas, ultimately reducing uncomfortable bloating. If persistent bloating is an issue, we offer valuable guidance to identify potential causes and suggest lifestyle adjustments that can alleviate discomfort.

Colonics can help reduce inflammation, but they shouldn't be relied on as a quick-fix weight loss treatment or gimmick. Consistent treatments can promote a balanced microbiome, leading to a healthier metabolism. However, those looking for immediate weight loss results may be disappointed.

If you have been diagnosed with or suspect you have IBS, colonics can be highly beneficial. Our specialty is discussing and addressing IBS during your session.

It's possible that you may have a significant amount of waste in your colon based on your personal circumstances. However, it's important to note that it may take more than one colonic for it to be released. Constipation can have several causes and typically requires lifestyle modifications and several cleansing sessions for accumulated waste to dislodge and pass during a colon cleanse.

One of the most commonly asked questions is about the number of colonics one needs. While there is no set answer, it's important to understand that colonics are not a one-time solution and that we don't provide treatment plans until after your first colonic, but expect to book another session soon after as advised by your therapist. Regular colon cleansing is recommended for your health and well-being, and it should be tailored to your budget and lifestyle. For optimal health and relief from issues like constipation, bloating, and digestive problems, a series of colonics or ongoing treatment is recommended, possibly every two weeks.

Colonics typically do not interfere with any medication nor are there contraindications. This includes antibiotics.

Absolutely! You are scheduled for a 45min time slot, which gives you plenty of time to fully release and return to your day as normal.

No. We do not treat children at Colonics Sydney. You must be over 18 years of age.

The duration of the appointment is usually around 45-60 minutes but may vary. Kindly allocate 60 minutes for your booking.

If you have had recent abdominal and pelvic surgery including a C-Section birth or weight loss surgery, it is advised to wait 12 weeks until you can have a colonic. We regrettably and unfortunately can not treat anyone with Crohn's disease, Diverticulitis, Ulcerative colitis, kidney problems, Heart problems, active chemotherapy, colon cancer, colectomy, bowel perforation, bowel re-sectioning and if you're pregnant and have not had colonics previous to falling pregnant. Our treatment bed is fixed and does not move up or down therefore anyone requiring assistance to get onto the bed, and to the toilet may have difficulties also. We DO NOT treat children or very elderly people (over the age of 90). If you have a specific illness or injury it is best to call beforehand to discuss.

We ask you fast from eating food for 3 hours and liquids 1 hour before your treatment. Upon arrival you will fill out a New Client Form and your Therapist will then analyse and consult with you. You will then be taken into the treatment room and thoroughly explained the procedure so you understand how the system works (there is a video explanation to the left, also). The Therapist will leave the room and you will be asked to remove your clothing from the waist down (however you will be fully covered with disposable towelling). You will then lie on the bed. Once you are ready your Therapist will enter the room to begin the treatment, the therapist has clean hands and will wear disposable gloves and a disposable apron and will prepare the workspace. An instrument called a speculum is lubricated and gently inserted into the rectum - THIS DOES NOT, AND SHOULD NOT HURT. At Colonics Sydney we use single-use (disposable), TGA-approved equipment which is collected and disposed of by an outsourced waste disposal service as per NSW Health requirements. Once inserted, the water and waste tubes connect to the speculum. You are then covered up again completely - this process takes SECONDS. The water is then released down the water tube which does not generate enough pressure to travel into the colon, instead making it only to the rectum where it simultaneously exits through the waste tube and, through clever technique by the Therapist, the muscular contractions of the colon (called Peristalsis) are activated. The Therapist will gently massage your abdominal area when necessary and facilitate and control the entire process so you can relax and trust you are being well looked after. The treatment is approximately 45 minutes and during that time you can converse about lifestyle, health and gut issues. It is imperative to mention that the colonic will not hurt though some discomfort in the gut may arise (which is a good thing - that means you are detoxing!). A highly experienced and qualified Therapist fully facilitates the treatment and we take pride in our extremely high hygiene standards. Though Colonics are considered an alternative health treatment, we give you a professional clinical experience with the comfort of a holistic setting.

Unfortunately not!

It is exaggerated to claim that all of your good bacteria are removed during a colonic. In fact, friendly bacteria tend to reside within the mucous lining of the colon and are not easily removed. However, it is important to eliminate overgrowth of harmful bacteria to maintain a healthy balance. We recommend incorporating probiotics and fermented foods such as kefir, sauerkraut, kvass, and occasionally kombucha into your diet to promote good bacterial growth and maintain overall health.

The timing of the procedure depends on your schedule, as there is no significant difference in its effectiveness. However, since Colonics Sydney lacks showering facilities, it is recommended that individuals opt for a sauna session post-treatment before heading home.

Unfortunately, certain people can not use the sauna due to the risk it carries. If you are pregnant, under the age of 18, very elderly or feeling nauseous and feverish, it is advised not to use the sauna. If you have a particular medical condition please seek your Doctors approval before using our Full Spectrum Sauna.

Frequent use of the sauna, at least once a week, can lead to remarkable and long-lasting benefits. However, the outcomes and frequency of usage vary depending on individual preferences. Some people may choose to use the sauna occasionally or when they undergo a colonic treatment. Ultimately, the decision is yours. We currently offer a fantastic deal of four sauna sessions for just $90, valid for seven days. We encourage you to take advantage of this offer!

The sauna session lasts for 45 minutes, but the temperature is not consistently high throughout. While it's not necessary to stay in for the entire duration, there are several advantages to enduring it for as long as you can handle. Generally, sessions lasting between 30 and 45 minutes are considered ideal and offer the greatest benefits. If you start feeling overwhelmed, it's perfectly acceptable to step out of the sauna and take a break. You can always return to the sauna at your convenience, as you have it for a full 45 minutes to use as you see fit.

We provide all necessary items for your session, but you are welcome to bring your own water bottle if you prefer. We suggest using a thermos bottle as it will keep your water cool, even in the sauna. Plastic and glass bottles are also permitted, but please note that the water may heat up quickly. No need to worry, as we have a water filter available for you to refill your bottle. If you enjoy reading, we recommend bringing some reading material to help you relax and pass the time. You may also bring your phone or iPad in the sauna, and connect to the internal Bluetooth.

Before your sauna session, it is important to make sure you are well-hydrated. You will release a significant amount of sweat during your session, so it is recommended to drink plenty of water beforehand. If you have a sauna booked after a colonic, there is no need to worry as the body will be hydrated during the colonic treatment. You can wear whatever you feel comfortable in and appropriate for the weather, but in the sauna, you have the option to go naked, wear swimwear or underwear. After the session, you may continue to perspire for a few minutes, so keep in mind that we do not have a shower available (there is a sink and water available in the room if you need to wet a towel to wipe down your body). It is recommended that you come without makeup and body creams, as they may sweat off during the session. This is not a major issue, but it is better to be aware of it.

Yes! We offer 2 person sauna sessions for only $50!
