Closed-System Colon Hydrotherapy in Scottsdale, AZ

Colon Hydrotherapy is often referred to as a colonic, a colon cleanse or colon irrigation. These are names for hydrotherapy which uses water for inner cleansing. Colon hydrotherapy is a safe, effective method of removing waste, gas and mucous from the large intestine, using FDA registered equipment, without the use of drugs. Professional Colon Hydrotherapy Devices have systems, that the pressure, temperature, and flow of water, are all safely regulated throughout the session. Filtered and temperature regulated water is introduced into the colon, the waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through stimulating natural peristalsis. The inflow of water and the release of waste may be repeated many times. There is no odor! Odor is whisked away thru a sewer drain pipe. Our colon hydrotherapists are trained, certified and members of I-ACT and board certified with the National Board of Colon Hydrotherapy. 

At Valley Colonics & Wellness, we use the Hydro-San Plus system and disposable, single-use speculums.

The term closed system refers to the way water and waste travel through the equipment.

A small, disposable speculum is gently inserted into the rectum and connected to the device through dedicated tubing.  

The Hydro-San Plus closed system uses two separate tubes: one to deliver filtered, temperature-controlled water into the colon and another to carry water and waste out. Both are connected to the speculum, allowing water to enter and waste to exit through separate pathways.

The waste travels directly through enclosed tubing into the drainage system rather than an open basin. This is why it's called a closed system, the water and waste remain contained within the equipment, helping minimize odors and maintain a clean, private, and discreet experience.  

When it's time to release, the incoming water is stopped, allowing water and waste to exit through a separate, enclosed waste line connected directly to the drainage system.

The closed system also allows your therapist to remain actively involved throughout the treatment, controlling the water flow and monitoring your comfort.

1. Filtered, Temperature-Controlled Water
   Water passes through our filtration system before entering the colon. The Hydro-San Plus allows your therapist to monitor and regulate the water temperature and flow throughout your session.
2. Gentle Fills and Releases
   Water is introduced in controlled intervals. As you begin to feel fullness or the urge to release, your therapist stops the incoming water and allows it to drain through the closed waste line.
   This process is repeated throughout the session, with adjustments based on your individual comfort and response.
3. Hands-On Abdominal Support
   Your colon hydrotherapist remains with you throughout the entire procedure. Gentle abdominal massage may be incorporated when appropriate.
   You'll also be encouraged to breathe comfortably and communicate any sensations or concerns.
4. A Clear Viewing Tube
   The Hydro-San Plus features a clear viewing tube that allows you and your therapist to observe the water and waste being released.
   Some clients find this aspect of the experience interesting and satisfying, while others prefer not to watch. The choice is entirely yours.
5. Continuous Therapist Guidance
   Unlike an open system, your therapist manages the water flow and release cycles for you. You're never left alone to operate the equipment.
   Water flow and session length are adjusted according to your comfort, and the procedure can be stopped whenever necessary.

You're receiving personalized, hands-on care from an experienced, board-certified colon hydrotherapist.

The relief of symptoms can be immediate with on going improvement.

The colon, also known as the large intestine plays a vital role in digestive health, absorbing water and nutrients while eliminating waste and toxins from the body. Over time, the colon can accumulate waste buildup, toxins, and undigested material, which may contribute to symptoms like bloating, fatigue, constipation, skin issues, and more.

Colon hydrotherapy offers a gentle and effective way to support your body’s natural detoxification processes, helping to flush out toxins from environmental pollutants, GMOs, pesticides, processed foods, and chronic stress. Regular cleansing of the colon can lead to improved digestion, enhanced nutrient absorption, better elimination, and a greater sense of overall well-being.

Toxic buildup in the colon has been linked to a variety of health concerns, including leaky gut syndrome, inflammation, autoimmune disorders, and even chronic disease. Unlike enemas, which only reach the lower portion of the colon, colon hydrotherapy gently irrigates the entire length of the colon using warm, purified water—helping to release accumulated waste that may have been stored for months or even years.

In fact, the average adult can carry several pounds of compacted waste in the colon without realizing it. Colon hydrotherapy offers a safe solution to help reset your gut and restore balance to your digestive system.

If this is a first time session, or if it has been a while since the last one, it is recommended to choose a series of 2-3 in a 7 to 10 day period, or as close together as possible. 

Depending on each person, more or fewer sessions may be needed.   

It is rare to get a full cleanse of the colon in a single session.   

Did you know that the colon is approximately 5 feet in length? for most people it may take a few sessions to allow hydration and elimination.  

Several factors can influence how your body responds during a session, including hydration, bowel habits, diet, stress levels, and individual digestive health. The amount of water and waste released can vary from person to person and even between appointments.
