THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN… and time to get your body in shape with a detox.

But sometimes your system gets overloaded and struggles to cope with all the toxins bombarding it which is when your own detox system needs a kickstart.I always feel at this time of year  one is inclined to feel a bit sluggish as the summer is over and we are heading into winter. It is just as much psychological as physical as we are inclined to feel tired and tense and definitely need a pick-up at this time of year. If you feel your skin is dull or your digestion bad, a detox treatment could give your body the boost to help you feel bright and fresh.

Some of the benefits of a detox are:

  1. It kick starts your body’s natural elimination processes, reducing fluid retention and reducing your digestion.
  2. It gives more energy and stamina, and improves your concentration as your body starts to work more efficiently.
  3. Skin looks smoother and more toned, and eyes look brighter as toxins are flushed out.
    Stimulates circulation and strengthens your immune system.
  4. Helps you to sleep better by reducing stress levels and improving your sense of wellbeing.

There are numerous ways of solving your toxic overload in your body some of which are :

Colonic Irrigation-

this treatment cleanses the inside of your colon by flushing it with purified, filtered water. Waste material can build up in the colon, reducing its ability to absorb essential minerals and vitamins which results in a sluggish digestion.

After the treatment you will feel lighter around your stomach and abdomen, physically refreshed and re-energised. You may also find your skin is clearer and your eyes look brighter.

Keep meals light after a colonic such as salads, vegetables soups or fruit.
