Colon Hydrotherapy, Lymphatic Drainage, and Infertility
Dr. Fong chats with colon hydrotherapist and bio-electric lymphatic drainage therapist, Adrienne Chhouey about the detoxification treatments she practices, and her journey with battling and overcoming infertility. Infertility is a growing problem in today's toxic and stressed-out world. Dr. Fong gets to the root cause of fertility issues, and how to address them naturally with detoxification and naturopathic medicine.*Specific Time StampsAdrienne's Story and overcoming infertility - begins at 00:51Info about Colon Hydrotherapy - begins at 16:43Info about Bio-Electric Lymphatic Drainage Therapy - begins at 30:05 Colon Hydrotherapy, commonly known as a colonic, is the gentle infusion of temperature/ pressure controlled, filtered water into the colon using FDA approved equipment. As water hydrates the colon, waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through natural peristalsis. This may assist in cleansing the colon of accumulated waste material, gas, mucus, and/or undigested foods and toxins.Bio-Electric Lymphatic Drainage (BELD) is a type of therapy that uses a light beam generator, which emits a stream of photons (negative ions). This light beam emits a heartbeat pulsation that when combined with a manual lymphatic drainage massage, helps improve the flow in blood and lymph. Simultaneously, the process loosens waste from cells, which assists in the removal of toxins, poisons and trapped proteins. This literally cleans the spaces between cells and allows waste product and toxins to slowly and safely flow out through the normal channels.
