Joseph Petersen and Jaime Clifford, Certified Colon Hydrotherapists

The Northport Wellness Center proudly announces that Certified Colon Hydrotherapists, Joseph Petersen and Jaime Clifford have joined our professional team.

The toxic mess that our industrial and technological age has created has resulted in a break down of our overall wellness. We are now exposed to over 70,000 chemicals in use today that were not in use just 100 years ago. Optimal Wellness of Long Island offers a safe, gentle and wonderfully effective way to help you remove potentially harmful toxins in your body in order to achieve optimal wellness.

Why Colon Cleansing?

The colon (or large intestine) is a hollow tube-like organ made up of a muscle structure that moves toxic materials out of the body by a wave-like motion known as peristalsis. Use of laxatives over an extended period of time will weaken these muscles, creating dependency.

From the beginning of the large intestine (cecum) to the rectum, it is approximately 5-6 feet long. When a person is constipated, the walls of the colon are generally packed or lined with accumulated feces. This causes extended periods of intestinal overloading by failure to respond to the immediate call of nature. In this condition, the colon can neither absorb nor eliminate properly. Polluted blood from this system is picked up by the liver and circulates through every part of the body, reaching every cell.

To properly clean the body tissue, we must start by a thorough cleansing of the bowel. It took time to pollute our bodies to the point of disease, so it also takes time to reverse this process through a series of internal cleansings (colonics).

Who Needs Internal Cleansing?

Do you experience any of the following signals regularly?

  • Constipation or Diarrhea
  • Need for Frequent Laxatives
  • Frequent Headaches
  • Skin Problems
  • Lower Back Pain
  • Lowered Resistance to Infection
  • Fatigue
  • Insomnia
  • Irritability
  • Edema/Swelling
  • Bloating
  • Bad Breath
  • Asthma/Sinus Problems
  • Food Allergies
  • Overweight
  • Loss of Memory
  • Depression
  • Menstrual Problems
  • General Aches and Pains
  • Yeast Infections
  • Parasites
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome

The average person is carrying several pounds of dried up fecal matter impacted in the colon as a result of eating white flour, meat, fat, dairy products, sugar, alcohol, processed foods and preservatives. It is safe to say that anyone who has been on a Basic American Diet (B.A.D) will benefit from periodic internal cleansings, especially if you live in an urban area, where pollutants are high.

Colonics are a gift you give your body, mind and soul. It is a time for deep healing and letting go at whatever level you are ready. It is a sacred process! Respect the body's wisdom and seek to help restore your body to optimal health and wellness, naturally.
