The
programmes are aimed at Cleansing and Detoxifying all body systems.
The starting point is always the Colon and then the goal is to work
through each body system including: the Liver/Gallbladder, Kidneys/Bladder,
Lymphatic/Immune, Skin and Endocrine Systems.
Each
programme consists of dietary advice, herbal formulas, treatments
in the clinic, or work to do at home. The programmes can be undertaken
at your pace over a period of several months or alternatively you
can undertake a three day deep tissue cleanse which
is a complete programme over 3 consecutive days. The choice is yours.
Warning:
there may be contraindications with prescribed or over the counter
medicines, therefore it is best to check with your doctor and a
qualified health practitioner before starting these programmes.
Do not undertaken these programmes if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
If
you would like to undertake these programmes, it is preferable to
have a Naturopathic Health Consultation first. Please see the Thyme
to Heal Consultation Information leaflet for information.
It
is the Naturopathic belief that all disease starts in the Colon.
If the Colon is toxic, the body will be toxic. Therefore, it is
essential that the Colon is kept clean and functioning correctly
for good health and well-being to be achieved.
The
Colon Cleansing Programme includes taking herbs as well as having
Colon Hydrotherapy. It is the starting point for a total body
“detox”. The herbs help to soften and loosen any impaction
and therefore may enhance the results of the Colonic Hydrotherapy.
It is recommended that the herbs be taken for a minimum of 2 weeks
prior to the Colonic Hydrotherapy and then can be continued afterwards
for several weeks/months .
The
next major organs to be cleansed are the Liver and Gallbladder.
It is important to undertake the Colon Cleansing Programme first,
as there is no point dumping toxins from the Liver and Gallbladder
into a dirty bowel.
The
Liver cleans your blood, synthesises hormones and neutralises poisons.
Some
symptoms of an unhealthy Liver and Gallbladder:
The
Kidneys help to excrete waste products, maintain healthy blood pressure,
and balance the water content of the blood. If you have bladder
problems, the Kidneys will require cleansing as the bladder and
Kidneys derive from the same tissue.
Some
symptoms related to the Kidneys:
Cystitis,
urinary tract infections, kidney stones, lower back ache
This
is best undertaken after the Colon Cleansing Programme. The immune
system protects the body from being attacked by bacteria, it cleans
up body rubbish and old used up cells, and helps transport water
and tissue fluid around the body.
Some
symptoms of poor immunity/sluggish lymphatic system:
Frequent
colds/infections, poor skin, throat problems, lumps and bumps on
the body, cysts, hormone problems, swelling, water retention
The
programme includes:
1
to 3 months supply of Echinacea and Red Clover formula
(150ml)
Skin
Brushing for 5 minutes every day (dry skin) (Skin brushing
sheet provided)
The
skin is the largest eliminatory organ in the body. If there are
problems with the skin, then it is usually indicative of problems
deeper within the body. Therefore, it is advisable for both the
Colon and Liver Programmes to be undertaken before and in conjunction
with the Skin Programme.
Some
skin problems which may be helped by this programme:
Acne,
Psoriasis, Eczema
The
programme includes:
1
to 3 months supply of Burdock and Cleavers Formula (150ml)
It
is advisable to undertake the Colon Cleansing and Liver/Gallbladder
and Kidney/Bladder Programme prior to this programme. The programme
is aimed at both men, and women (of menstruating or menopausal
ages).
Some
symptoms which may be alleviated by this programme:
Female—PMT,
PMS, Endometriosis, Fibroids, Hot sweats, other menopausal symptoms,
fertility problems
Male—Prostate
problems, fatigue, lack of vitality, fertility problems
This
programme condenses the Colon, Liver and Gallbladder and Lymphatic/Immune
programmes into a 3 day cleanse. During the Programme, you will
undertake a juice fast at home and then come to the clinic for Colonic
Hydrotherapy and Manual Lymphatic Drainage.
The
programme is run over a Saturday, Sunday and Monday with Colonic
Hydrotherapy everyday.

This
is a physical or emotional crisis which may accompany these cleansing
programmes. (Do not be disappointed if you do not get a Healing
crisis, as the body will find other ways to eliminate toxins). Symptoms
may be headaches, spots, flu like symptoms, aches and pains, tears.
Whatever forms it takes it is indicative of toxins which were previously
poisoning the body are leaving. It will be a positive sign of healing!
It should only last 3 to 4 days and not more than 7, and after this
time you will begin to reap the benefits.
If
you want an unusual gift for a Birthday, Christmas or Valentines
day (yes, I have had people buy a Colonic Gift Voucher for their
loved one fornti Valene’s day!). Then, why not buy a Colonic Gift
Voucher or a presentation box full of detoxification goodies (the
"Detox Box").
