“I have been seeing Crystal for 3 years for her amazing facials and I've started having colonics with her for the past year. She always makes me feel calm and relaxed. I would recommend colonics to anyone wanting to feel detoxed and healthy. They are a great experience and Crystal has a passionate approach and knowledge base that makes me feel safe and protected. Her holistic facials are so wonderful, my skin has improved and my home care with her advise and guidance has also gotten a lot better, I couldn't have done it without her!"

"I have experienced incredible results, especially when it comes to Colon Hydrotherapy. Under her guidance and care I have had been able to release an INSANE amount of suppressed emotions (fear, self doubt, anxiety and anger) along with years and years of built up toxic waste.
​
I always leave feeling lighter, clearer, calmer, at ease more connected in my body.
Her ability to hold safe space while she works her magic allows for a deeply sacred and transformative experience. 12/10 highly recommend. Thank you Crystal! Forever grateful for you."

After Your Appointment
What to expect after your colonic:
Cleansing the body takes time but it is one of the most important parts of health. Here is what to expect after your first session with us!
Most clients feel lighter, more relaxed and less bloated
YOUR BODY TAKES TIME TO RESET
It’s important to remember that supporting your colon and creating healthy elimination is a process. Every body is different, and your experience will depend on your digestive health, your history, your lifestyle and what your body has been carrying.
If this is your first colonic, remember that one session is just the beginning. If you’ve experienced long-term constipation, sluggish digestion or irregular elimination, these patterns didn’t develop overnight and they won’t necessarily change in one appointment.
The colon is approximately two metres long, and it takes time for the body to release accumulated stool and intestinal contents. One session can be a wonderful first step, but for many people, a series of 3–5 or more sessions may be recommended depending on their individual needs and goals.
Think of it as creating a new relationship with your body not a quick fix.
Supporting your body through regular elimination, nourishing food, hydration, movement and self-care can become a beautiful part of your overall wellness routine. And while creating change in the body can sometimes feel uncomfortable or emotional, it can also leave you feeling lighter, more connected and more aware of what your body needs.
This is an investment in you.
An opportunity to slow down, listen to your body and give yourself the care and attention you deserve.
Your body has its own wisdom.
Give it time. Give it support. Give it love.
Feeling bloated after your session?
That’s normal.
Feeling a little bloated or full after your session? Don’t worry this can happen, and it’s completely okay.
Your digestive system has just experienced something new, and your colon may still be moving and releasing. Sometimes your body needs a little time to finish the process, so you may not feel the full effects of your session right away.
This is one of the reasons I recommend completing your sessions back-to-back or as close together as possible, especially when you are beginning your colon hydrotherapy journey. Consistency gives your body the opportunity to continue the process and establish a healthy rhythm of elimination.
Drink plenty of water, listen to your body and give yourself time to relax and allow your system to settle.
As your body becomes more accustomed to the treatments, many clients describe feeling lighter, refreshed, energized and more comfortable after their sessions.
Remember, your body is always doing its best to support you. There is no need to rush the process.
Breathe. Release. Let go.
And trust your body.
How soon should I come back? ASAP.
Now that everything is hydrated and your body understands the process, your body will best release sooner, rather than later. Ideally book your next session no more that a week apart. A few consecutive days would be the ideal but we understand your schedule may not allow for this. The closer together you have your colonics, the easier it will be to clear the colon as less is going back inside in between!
Our top tips after your session:
- Stay hydrated
- Make time to rest
- Eat soft nourishing foods
- Avoid alcohol and processed foods
- Don't trust a fart! You may need to go throughout the day.
Why didn't I release much?
It’s not unusual to release very little in your first session, especially if you’re feeling dehydrated, holding stress and a bit anxious.The more colonics you have the more your body will relax, soften and hydrate and the more you will release. Everyone is different and detoxing can take time. Trust the process.
Why do I feel emotional?
The colon is the center for grief and guilt in the body. By cleansing, we often release those emotions which means tears can come even when you’re not expecting them.
