Gravity Colonics at Yes2Health
Experienced Colon Hydrotherapist: Rebekah
Effective Colon Hydrotherapy for Optimal Detoxification
In 2022, Rebekah trained in the Wood’s Gravity-Centered Colonic, the most gentle and comfortable colonic method available. This natural technique allows water to flow into the intestine from a source above the body, using gravity, with no motors or pumps. The water enters and exits the body naturally, promoting the colon’s peristaltic motion. The method is incredibly effective at removing toxic matter while strengthening the colon. Rebekah guides you through the entire process, using pressure points and gentle massage to enhance the experience.
Benefits of Gravity Colonics
When accumulated waste and toxic matter are removed from the body, overall function improves, boosting your body’s natural healing capacity. The typical session lasts 30-45 minutes. For those with moderate to severe constipation, we recommend booking three consecutive Gravity Colonics, either over three days or spaced out over three weeks. At Yes2Health, we only use filtered water to ensure the removal of heavy metals, bacteria, cysts, chlorine, and pesticides before entering your body.
Difference Between Gravity and Pressurised Colon Hydrotherapy
At Yes2Health, we offer both machine and gravity-centered colonics. The gravity system is based on the original method developed by Dr. Robert Woods and Dr. Norman Walker. Rebekah has received hands-on training from Shirley Woods, the granddaughter of Dr. Woods. This method uses simultaneous in-and-out water flow, preventing water retention and discomfort, unlike pressurized systems that rely on motors or pumps. Gravity colonics stimulate the natural peristaltic motion of the colon, promoting long-term colon health in a gentle, comfortable manner.
The Importance of Colon Cleansing
The colon is the main repository for accumulated waste in the body. If left untreated, waste becomes impacted, septic, and can seep toxins back into the bloodstream, affecting overall health. The condition of the colon plays a critical role in general wellbeing, as a toxic, acidic colon breeds bacteria and disease. Colon cleansing can alleviate numerous health conditions, such as acidosis, cancer, heart disease, obesity, constipation, bloating, and digestive issues. A clean colon ensures optimal nutrient absorption, better digestion, and overall health.
Why You Can’t Eliminate Waste on Your Own
Although the body naturally eliminates waste, modern diets high in processed and refined foods can make elimination ineffective. Over time, waste accumulates, impacting the colon and reducing the body’s ability to eliminate waste efficiently. Even those who have regular bowel movements may still struggle with the hidden accumulation of toxic material.
How Often Should You Have a Colonic?
Colon hydrotherapy is not a quick fix; rather, it’s a process that benefits from regular treatments. Many clients begin with two treatments per week, especially if they have health conditions. Diet plays a significant role in the frequency of colonics—combined with a cleansing diet, regular colonics promote more effective detoxification.

What Happens During a Colon Hydrotherapy Session?
During your treatment, you’ll lie comfortably on a cushioned table in a private, soothing environment. Rebekah will administer the treatment using the Wood’s Gravity-Centred Colonic method. The process uses gravity to gently introduce water into your colon, helping to remove waste and toxins. Throughout the session, Rebekah will assist with pressure points and massage to help promote comfort and effective cleansing. The session typically lasts 30-45 minutes, followed by time on the toilet if needed.
After Your Colonic: What to Expect
After your first colonic, you may feel a sense of rejuvenation and lightness. Some individuals may feel slightly fatigued, especially after their first treatment, so it’s best to avoid rushing off to another activity.
Can I Get a Colonic During My Menstrual Cycle?
Yes! It’s perfectly fine to receive a Gravity colonic during your menstrual cycle. The treatment may even help alleviate uncomfortable symptoms such as bloating, cramping, and gas, aiding in the overall flow of waste
Can Men Benefit from Colon Hydrotherapy?
Absolutely! Many men benefit from colon hydrotherapy as more individuals recognise the importance of gut health. Men can experience improved digestion, increased energy, and relief from various health conditions through regular colon cleanses.
Can I Receive a Colonic if I’m Feeling Sick?
Yes! In fact, colon hydrotherapy is one of the most effective ways to support your recovery when feeling unwell. Illness often results from the body being overwhelmed by waste and toxicity. A colonic helps to eliminate that waste, promoting quicker healing.
Will Colon Hydrotherapy Wash Out Healthy Bacteria?
No, colon hydrotherapy does not wash out healthy bacteria. In fact, it creates an optimal environment for healthy flora to thrive. After your session, it’s recommended to rehydrate with coconut water, vegetable juice or some fruit, all of which help to support the regeneration of beneficial bacteria.
Will I Become Dependent on Colonics?
Gravity colonics strengthen the colon by improving its natural peristaltic action. Over time, regular treatments can lead to more regular and efficient elimination without dependency.
Tips for Gas and Constipation Relief
To alleviate gas and constipation, avoid excessive fruit, practice food combining, and incorporate fresh ginger root tea with organic honey or tonics into your routine. Yoga postures, brisk walks, and digestive enzymes can also help relieve discomfort.
