Colon Therapy

Many holistic practitioners believe that health begins with a well-cared for colon. The precise functioning of the body’s organs of detoxification explains why: every 4 minutes the blood cycles through the portal vein from the colon to the liver and back again. If the colon is toxic, through the connecting pathway of the portal vein, the liver becomes overloaded. The liver, then, can’t do its main function, which is to detoxify the whole body. The colon and liver are the 1-2 detoxification punch for the body.

Our therapy cleans the colon using a gentle water irrigation technique. Water is filtrated and passed through UV light to assure its purity. Colon therapy offers many health benefits including detoxification, cleansing of the bloodstream and the stimulation of internal organs. While you are relaxing, letting us gently stimulate your body to release its toxic materials, we facilitate the process through the use of reflexology and abdominal massage.

Colon therapy, when combined with flotation and the body polish, gives an unsurpassed detoxification.

When combined with essential oils in Raindrop Therapy, the cleansing is more thorough, and structural and electrical alignment are brought to the body.

Raindrop Colonic Therapy

The Raindrop Technique is a method of using reflexology and massage techniques in combination with essential oils. Specific oils are applied to the body, bringing structural as well as electrical balance. This gentle treatment helps align the energy centers of the body, and allows release if they are blocked. Oils used are: Young Living products of Valor, Aroma-Siez, Ortho-ease, as well as oils of thyme, oregano, cypress, wintergreen, basil, peppermint, and marjoram. When this treatment is done in conjunction with colon therapy, the cleansing is more thorough.

When Raindrop colon therapy is combined with both floatation and La Casa’s unique body polish (said by the New York Times to “come close to magical realism, leaving you feeling otherworldly”), you have given your body an unsurpassed detoxification.

Oxidative Therapies

When virgin forests covered the Earth, and when our oceans teemed with life, the oxygen content in the atmosphere was 38%. Today, it is less than 20%, and even lower in most urban areas.

Over 90% of the body’s energy is created by oxygen. Every single activity of the body is regulated by oxygen. Without oxygen, we cannot think, feel or act. The more oxygen we have in our system, the more energy we are able to produce. In fact, a good definition of vitality is the body’s ability to assimilate oxygen. On the other hand, oxygen deficiency creates an anaerobic environment, which can lead to anything from debilitating fatigue to life-threatening disease. Otto Warburg won a Nobel Prize (twice) for his discovery that the cancer condition comes into existence only when normal cellular respiration has been replaced with anaerobic cellular respiration. Renowned molecular biologist and geneticist, Stephen Levine, has concluded that the lack of oxygen in human cells and tissues is the underlying root cause of not just cancer, but of all chronic degenerative disease.

At La Casa, we have various ways of introducing more oxygen into the body.

Super-Enriched Oxygen Bath

Give your whole body a good dousing of the element you need the most: Oxygen. Relax in a steam cabinet while the pores in your body absorb this vital, enriched from of activated oxygen. This is a detoxification par excellence. The form of oxygen we use kills bacteria, viruses, yeast, fungi; it increases circulation and regulates metabolism. This is a therapeutic treatment like none other. Makes a great combination with colonic therapy.

Oxidative Exercise

Rebounding is unique as an aerobic exercise because it stimulates, strengthens and cleanses every cell in the body. This is because it uses vertical motion rather than the horizontal motion that is used in all other forms of exercise. When rebounding is combined with breathing concentrated oxygen, the whole body is feed on a cellular level.
