Hi all,
I went in for my first colonic on Friday and had a great experience. It wasn't all great, but I felt much better afterwards. The practitioner said she felt like it went really well and i got all kinds of stuff out! afterwards i swear that my belly has reduced in size (it was always pretty distended) and i no longer feel so much pressure on my bladder! wow, these are all great things.
anyway, now i feel renewed and want to keep my colon healthy! so far i have had no bms since the colonic, and i have been eating a LOT, so i feel like it is just filling up with crap!! anyone have any advice? maybe it just takes a little while to go again since it got cleaned out.
i am going off the p&bs for a little while as i wasn't "going" much at all without enemas, and trying to schedule my day around them was driving me crazy! lol..

This is a reply to # 417,219There are three different reactions to colonics regarding post-first-colonic bowel movements. Ideally, they should improve and this is sometimes the case. Quite often the functioning remains the same and additional colonics, improved hydration and diet, etc. will improve functioning.
When colon functioning declines after a colonic it is an indication that the bowel muscle is weak and impairing peristalsis so that accumulated waste following the colonic is not being propelled through the colon fast enough. The key to this is to strengthen the bowel muscle...which can be accomplished with a series of colonics (particularly alternating warm and cool water), using fiber therapy along with drinking plenty of water and adding more fibrous foods to your diet, and making sure that your overall muscle tone is good by exercising regularly.

This is a reply to # 417,220Hi P tree,
Thanks for your response!
Weak colon must be my issue, as this is the same thing that happened to me with the p&b's--stuff just wasn't flowing. I had watery bms prior, so this would make sense.
Now I'm taking Triphala which seems to help things to move, will try drinking more water and eating more fiber, though I feel I do a lot of both! I eat veggies & grains but also regular protein such as chicken and fish as it just makes me feel much better than grains--they seem to make my bms so sticky. I work out for 8-10 hours/week, so I know that I'm working my abs and glutes and things like this...
I decided to go off the p&b's cuz it was somewhat depressing to not be able to keep things moving without triphala or enemas--no matter how much h20 i drink! do you think i should maybe reconsider and continue the p&bs and try to add fiber to strengthen my colon? right now i'm planing to begin fibersmart from renewlife and this seems like a more gentle fiber mix that won't stop me up so much.
any ideas?
your advice is appreciated..

This is a reply to # 417,222Rather than using the p&b cleanse, you should probably start off with a very small dose of psyllium alone in water. Try 1/2-1 tsp psyllium in a glass of water once a day and see if the lower dose will get things moving and keep you from getting blocked up. Another option is to try another type of fiber...there are many.
