Benefits of Colonic Hydrotherapy

The benefits of Colonic Hydrotherapy can often be quickly observed in the form of improved bowel function together with clearer skin, more mental clarity and fewer headaches. Circulatory, immune, inflammatory and weight problems can also often improve with colonic treatments when accompanied by recommended diet and lifestyle changes. After treatment the bowel is better able to absorb nutrients and less likely to absorb enterotoxins.

Anyone can benefit from a Colonic Treatment, commonly people leave a treatment feeling clean, revitalised and well. You don’t ned to have a condition to benefit from the extensive health gains from this gift to yourself.

Colonic Hydrotherapy is very effective with many conditions including bloating, constipation, colitis, diverticulitis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, candida, haemorrhoids and diarrhoea.

In addition to supporting the above conditions, Colon Hydrotherapy also treats skin conditions (eczema, acne and psoriasis), headaches, food allergies, low energy, PMT and Asthma.

Colonic Hydrotherapy kills harmful bacteria, parasites, toxins and viruses. It also lays a sound foundation, improves health and promotes a more active lifestyle. Colonic Hydrotherapy treats the cause, not the symptoms!

Cleaning the large intestine starts a new life cycle and facilitates a more enjoyable, exciting life.

The River Retreat treatment room surrounded by ancient woodlands and next to an enchanting river is the perfect space to enjoy the nurturance of this experience.

Benefits of Qigong

Qigong is an ancient Chinese system of exercise and meditation that makes the mind and spirit tranquil, cultivates health, well-being, and long life. It has been practised for centuries by millions of Chinese people and is based on repetitions of very precise sets of movements, specifically designed to benefit health on many different levels.

Qi Gong is easy to learn and enjoyable to do. Even a few minutes of practise can have an invigorating and rejuvenating effect. Regular practise brings about a deep strengthening effect for the whole body and its various systems (nervous, digestive, respiratory, skeleto-muscular, hormonal, gynaecological, etc).

Its ability to help in healing a large variety of chronic and acute injuries and illnesses has been the subject of various research programmes led by the Chinese medical authorities.

The aim of Qi Gong is to promote the movement of Qi (energy) in the body; this is done by opening certain gates and stretching and twisting energy channels. A key point in Qi Gong practice is relaxation and deep breathing, both of which are prerequisites to allow Qi to flow.

With a little bit of regular practise, Qi Gong can have a powerful effect on mind, body and spirit. Reported benefits have included increased general health and well being, reduced levels of stress, and a brighter and more balanced outlook on life's possibilities.
