At Oasis Colonics, we gently rinse the lower bowel with warm water softening, breaking apart and removing encrusted fecal matter, gas and mucus leaving you feel clearer and lighter. Colonics can help re-tone and re-shape the colon. Some of the benefits of colon hydrotherapy include increased energy, improved circulation, clearer skin and eyes, enhanced mental clarity, weight normalization, improved digestion and relief from bloating.

The colon (large intestine) is approximately 5-6 feet long and approximately 2.5 cm wide. It is lined with a thick layer of mucous in which lives both friendly and unfriendly bacteria, yeasts and parasites. The colon completes the digestive process. It absorbs nutrients and water from digested foods. It processes dead cells and toxins received from the bloodstream. The colon is the body’s sewage system. When toxic waste is not effectively and regularly eliminated, it becomes reabsorbed into the bloodstream and re-distributed throughout the body. These toxins can collect in other organ tissue, such as the brain, wreaking havoc. As the years continue to pass, with inadequate nutrition and emotional stress, the body gradually becomes overwhelmed by toxicity. At this point, disease sets in ~ allergies, arthritis, migraines, skin problems, heart disease, metabolism and hormone imbalances, gout, constipation, parasites, candida overgrowth, IBS, colitis, Crohn’s disease, “bad” cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, et cetera.

People do not generally die from ‘old age’. People die, most often, from a lifetime of acidic accumulation and toxic congestion. Are you ready to improve your health?

~~How long does it take? ~~
At Oasis Colonics, we allow one and a half hours for each session. You will be on the table for approximately 45 to 60 minutes.

~~Is it uncomfortable? ~~
A colonic should NEVER be uncomfortable. At Oasis Colonics, most clients find the experience quite pleasant once they become accustomed to it.

~~Do I have to fast before a colonic? ~~
At Oasis Colonics, fasting is not a requirement. For maximum comfort, however, we recommend that your stomach is fairly empty when you come in for your session. Eat lightly during the day of your session, and, refrain from eating or drinking for two hours before your session.

~~Can I eat afterward? ~~
Yes, you can.

~~Are there restrictions on activities after a colonic? ~~
At Oasis Colonics, we encourage you to listen to your body after your session. Usually it’s best to rest a bit after a colonic, if possible, to give your colon time to settle down. If you feel tired, rest and drink a lot of purified water. If you are energized, drink a lot of purified water and enjoy your feeling of lightness and clarity.

~~How will I feel after a colonic? ~~
At Oasis Colonics, some clients feel fatigued after a session. Other clients feel quite energized. If you feel tired or achy, it is because your body is still detoxifying. Drink a lot of purified water and rest. You will, most likely, feel quite renewed.

~~I’ve heard that getting a colonic depletes the body of necessary bacteria. Is this true? ~~
This idea is based on inaccurate information. The fact is that both friendly bacteria (probiotics) and unfriendly bacteria (harmful, toxic bacteria, fungi and viruses) dwell in the gut. These “flora” reproduce more efficiently in a clean environment. A colonic will not deplete the friendly flora. Conversely, the unfriendly bacteria thrive in a dirty environment. It is the unfriendly bacteria that can cause all kinds of health issues.

~~Having a colonic sounds like a very embarrassing procedure to me… ~~
It is the fear of embarrassment that is worse than any actual embarrassment. At Oasis Colonics, your comfort is very important. We will help ease any trepidation on your first visit by education and a gentle manner.

~~How do I know if I have toxins and encrusted feces in my colon? ~~
Symptoms of toxicity can include chronic constipation or diarrhea, fatigue, depression, headaches, skin blemishes, bad breath, weight issues, lack of vitality and several others.

~~How many sessions will I need? ~~
At Oasis Colonics, we recognize that each person is unique. Generally, a series of three to six colonics is adequate for a thorough initial cleansing. Additional colonics may be useful to tone up a lazy colon for someone who has a bowel condition such as constipation or excessive bloating, or who is in the process of healing a chronic disease. Treatments are administered by a skilled colon hydrotherapist who has over 25 years of experience in this field.

A question that must be asked in this time of financial constraint:
Are colonics worth the price? Many doctors say “Yes!”.

The premise is that pathogenic bacteria and other undesirable microorganisms will be more effectively defeated by a larger contingency of probiotic strains. Certain probiotic strains colonize more effectively in specific areas of the G.I. tract – Lactobacilli do better in the small intestine while Bifidobacteria prefer the colon.

When a label tells you that the food you are buying “contains probiotics,” I encourage you to question whether they are selling health benefits or meremarketing hype. More on that topic in this article from The New York Times ~ Health section.

During a colon hydrotherapy session at Oasis Colonics, gallons of water are circulated in and out of the colon. Throughout the session your colon therapist uses a combination of abdominal massage and breathing techniques to help promote the elimination of toxic waste.

One colon hydrotherapy session may be equivalent to having several regular bowel movements. As you continue colon therapy, future sessions can prove to be even more effective as the older, harder mucus coated feces are soften and dislodged from the colon walls. Utilizing colonics while taking cleansing products, or while on detox programs, can greatly help facilitate and maximize results.

The colon benefits from periodic, thorough cleansing too. Constipation, skin eruptions, headaches, joint pain, gas, bloating, stomach aches, chronic fatigue, weight gain, parasites and digestive problems can all be signs of a toxic colon.

People often suffer silently from these painful, and often embarrassing, health conditions. Colon cleansing can help.

Getting colonics is like deep cleaning your home. Sometimes you need to move the stove, refrigerator and heavy furniture in order to deep clean the corners, nooks and crannies of your well lived-in spaces.

Your colon may also be the carrier of unwanted extra weight and toxicity. The uncomfortable bloating around your abdomen may likely begin deep in your bowels, and be a breeding-ground for unhealthy bacteria, and advancing disease. It’s time for a change!

Comfortable and modest colonic treatments assist the body to eliminate old, built-up waste material. Colon hydrotherapy helps in reducing the toxic load on the liver. This process is especially effective in support of a detox program, cleansing diet and/or weight loss regime.

**Whenever you use ANY cleansing protocol, GET COLONICS. It’s like cleaning your house with the windows open.

Oasis Colonics in Portland, Oregon uses state-of-the-art, sanitary, closed-system, FDA-registered colon hydrotherapy equipment with ultra-violet water filtration. Treatments are administered by an experienced colonic therapist.
