Irritable Bowel Syndrome Introduction...

Introduction in to I.B.S

Irritable Bowel Syndrome or I.B.S is a common condition. The exact cause is unknown and may be different for each individual case.

Symptoms can be quite varied but include the following-

Pain and or discomfort in different parts of the abdomen. The pain often eases when you go to the toilet or pass wind. The pain is often described as 'spasm' or 'colic'. The severity of the pain can vary from mild to severe, both from person to person, and from time to time in the same person.

Bloating and or having a lot of wind.

Some people have bouts of diarrhoea, and some have bouts of constipation and some people have a mixture. Often stools may become small and pellet like or ribbon like.

Mucus may also be mixed with the stools.

A feeling of not being empty even after going to the toilet.


Some people have urgency, which means you have to get to the toilet quickly. A 'morning rush' is common. That is, you feel an urgent need to go to the toilet several times shortly after getting up. This is often during and after breakfast.

Other symptoms sometimes include feeling sick, headache, belching, poor appetite, tiredness, backache, muscle pains, feeling quickly 'full' after eating, heartburn, and bladder symptoms.


For some people the symptoms are mild but for others they may be more of a problem and everything in between.

Please note that if you see blood in your stools this is something to see the G.P with. If changes in bowel habits occur always seek professional advice.

Colon Clense Introdutcion

Colon Cleansing is becoming more and more popular. With lots of options, procedures and products on the market it can be confusing.

Colon Hydrotherapy is a quick and easy way of cleansing the colon. It is very safe and not at all embarrassing nor is it painful. It is a very effective way of cleansing the colon.

Cleansing the colon helps with any number of digestive problems from bloating to constipation, I.B.S, loose stools etc. Detoxifying the colon also has lots of added benefits including better skin, more energy, improving immune system and so the list goes on. Cleansing the colon can also be a preventative measure. Our lifestyle today is not always as healthy as it could be and so cleansing the colon can also help to re-address the balance.

There are many advantage of colon hydrotherapy verses taking a set of herbs or supplements. These include time, it only takes as long as the treatment. Also cost, sometimes prolonged use of herbal supplements can add up in cost. There are so many different herbs and supplements on the market that it is difficult to choose the right ones to do the job and also the quality can differ greatly. The biggest advantage by far is that taking a herbal cleanse can make you feel unwell during the process and it may well last for more than a few days. Again this will not happen with colon hydrotherapy treatments.
