Colon Cleanse and Skin Health

Colon hydrotherapy is a practice that ensures a deep intestinal cleansing using purified water to determine the expulsion of waste, fecal residues and toxins. Although it is mainly used to prepare the intestine for examinations such as colonoscopy or to respond to disorders such as constipation and dysbiosis, colon hydrotherapy can also be used for other purposes. For example, rebalancing intestinal function can have positive repercussions on the well-being of the skin, especially in cases of acne, eczema and other dermatological conditions.

The correlation between skin and intestine

Many studies have recently confirmed the correlation between the intestinal microbiota and skin health. A situation of microbial imbalance, in fact, can weaken the metabolic and immune system, causing persistent inflammatory states that, in turn, can exacerbate skin dysfunctions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis, worsening the outcomes. The health of the intestinal department thus proves to benefit the body even outside of the digestive system alone: ​​to avoid situations of dysbiosis, it is therefore recommended to adopt a healthy and balanced diet, possibly using probiotic and prebiotic supplements that can facilitate the virtuous repopulation of the intestinal mucosa. In addition, it is possible to intervene with colon hydrotherapy sessions.

How is colon hydrotherapy performed?

Colon hydrotherapy is a quick and painless treatment, performed by repeatedly irrigating the intestine with purified water, using a double-entry tube passed through the anus. The washing is alternated with moments of wastewater disposal that, in an absolutely hygienic way, allows the release of waste and fecal residues. To facilitate the process, during the therapy the doctor will massage the abdomen in order to promote peristalsis. The therapy lasts usually 30-50 minutes based on the individual response to the stimuli, and can be repeated in a variable number of sessions depending on the doctor's instructions.

The benefits of colon hydrotherapy on the skin

The close relationship between the intestinal microbiota and the immune system means that any alteration has repercussions on different functions of the organism. The skin, for example, suffers in cases of dysbiosis because a microbial imbalance can cause inflammatory states and inadequate immune responses, which can worsen the condition of eczema, acne and other skin diseases. Through colon hydrotherapy, it is possible to purify the intestine from waste and dead cells, washing the mucosa so that a balanced bacterial composition can be restored. In order for colon hydrotherapy sessions to be effective and safe, it is necessary to go to an expert physician who can recommend the treatment plan best suited to the patient's needs.
