There are many reasons why someone might choose to have a colonic (also called colonic irrigation or colon hydrotherapy).

It is a therapy that has proven beneficial to people since at least Egyptian times so is not either new or fashionable. Every now and then a celebrity who is undergoing colonic hydrotherapy might bring it to the attention of the media and cause a small upsurge in popularity.

Some of the many reasons for having a colonic could be:

Curiosity

To have a flat stomach

For weight loss

To help with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) symptoms

To reduce bloating

To increase stamina

To help with constipation / diarrhoea

To help remove parasites

To help with candida

As part of a detox (detoxification) program

In preparation for bowel / colon surgery

In answer to your question, I would suggest gathering as much information as possible and then making your informed decision based upon what is right for you and your body. You should always check with your doctor first to be on the safe side.
