How can I learn more about gut health and colonics?

If you are interested in learning more about colonics and gut health, you are invited to purchase a copy of The Ultimate Guide to Functional Gut Health on Amazon. This book includes all the latest studies related to microbiome, the gut brain axis, candida and gut dysbiosis, fermented foods, the skin, the liver, sibo, Ibs, juicing, nutrition and  so much more related to gut health. It is an ideal resource and educational tool for those who aim to improve personal wellness through optimal gut health. 

Why do gut health treatment plans at Dublin Vitality Center, The Gut Wellness Clinic include colonics?

 

Because many people believe that cleansing the body can benefit the skin, boost mood and help improve underlying signs and symptoms of toxicity. It’s no secret that boosted mood, a flatter tummy, clearer skin and optimal vitality start from within. That is why more and more people chose to combine gut health cleansing colonics, food intolerance testing, with advanced skincare protocols to achieve lasting improvements and overall wellness naturally. If you have been suffering from bloating, constipation, IBS, or if you have ongoing skin issues and cannot find the reason,  consider combining colonics with food intolerance testing, microbiome probiotics, and liver cleansing for exceptional results inside and out. 

Can colonic hydrotherapy help me feel better?

 Many people report feeling uplifted and rejuvenated not only physically, but also mentally too after undergoing colonic hydrotherapy. Perhaps this is to do with the link between serotonin production in the gut and its ability to improve mood by affecting the brain. There is certainly a link between the gut and the brain, and for those who tend towards natural therapies, colonics are always a high priority when it comes to boosting overall vitality.

What are the benefits of colonics for gut and wellness improvements?

It’s not unusual for people to report the following after undergoing gut health colonic hydrotherapy at Dublin Vitality Centre especially when treatments are undertaken in combination with changes to diet and exercise and care is taken to reboot the self with holistic self-love.

Probiotic Implants

It is now accepted that many skin problems, mood issues, weight problems and imbalances start in the gut and bowel. It is also accepted that the western world has been plighted with imbalanced gut flora due to widespread and incorrect use of certain substances and meds. Therefore, it makes perfect sense to look to the gut when seeking to make skin and wellbeing improvements. After all, clearing and cleansing the liver and colon with colonic hydrotherapy and liver coffee enemas has always been a popular wellbeing gut health protocol. So too has planting the gut garden with probiotics, and probiotic implants. 

 

Food triggers may be the cause of skin problems, bloating, mood imbalances and weight gain. That is why optimal natural wellbeing skin, gut health, and colonic hydrotherapy programmes at Dublin Vitality Center, The Gut Wellness Clinic often include a food intolerance test . A food intolerance test may help identify imbalances that result in symptoms that show up in the skin or in the digestive system, and may – when eliminated from the diet for a certain period of time – relieve such skin and gut health problems especially when combined with changes to diet and exercise.

Why do people have probiotic implants with colonic hydrotherapy?

Probiotic implants put probiotics exactly where they are needed; in the gut. In his book The Brain Maker acclaimed author and medical doctor Dr. David Perlmutter writes that the best way to replant gut flora is with probiotic enemas. Taking oral probiotics and having direct gut flora probiotic enemas is recommended to improve wellbeing. Add to this prebiotic foods such as kimchi and kombucha to feed the good gut flora in your bowel. Pre and probiotics may relieve skin and gut health problems when combined with changes to diet and exercise. Many people chose to undergo colonic hydrotherapy and gut health therapies at Dublin Vitality Center, The Gut Wellness Clinic when all other treatments and topical skin products have proven unhelpful. Very often, such persons are delighted to find that the answer to their issues was in their gut all along.

What Makes Skin Treatments So Effective at The Gut Wellness Clinic?

At Dublin Vitality Center®, The Gut Wellness Clinic, we focus entirely on holistic wellness treatments that enhance and support the vital link between the gut and the mind.  However, with many years and much experience of skin and gut related protocols, we recommend pure, plant-based botanicals, natural hyaluronic acid, plant-derived peptides, and organic collagen, ensuring that your skincare protocols work in harmony with the delicate skin and gut microbiome.

This is because of the now widely accepted data that transdermal absorption can significantly increase during skincare treatments, and what goes on your skin directly affects your gut. This longstanding awareness of the connection between the gut and skin drives our commitment to sourcing only the most natural skin botanicals and recommending them to you. By focusing on internal cleansing with treatments such as colonic hydrotherapy, liver coffee enemas, and probiotics, we help address the root causes of skin imbalances, contributing to improved overall health and skin clarity.

Increasing evidence supports the connection between skin health and gut wellness, particularly in managing conditions such as acne and rosacea. At Dublin Vitality Center, we are dedicated to achieving this balance and enhancing equalibrium of body an mind through our comprehensive wellness treatments, which now include Aura-Soma® consultations, food intolerance testing, as well as colonic hydrotherapy. That is because we fully understand that nurturing both the gut and skin together leads to optimal results.

For nearly two decades, Dublin Vitality Center has been at the forefront of gut and wellness care in Dublin and remains one of a handful of internationally certified colonic training schools in the world.

Can colonics improve the the skin?

 

It is no secret that many people have reported improvements to skin conditions after colonics. But our skin programmes don’t stop there. For those suffering with long term acne, psoriasis,  rosacea or red veins,  Dublin Vitality Centre offers not only inner body cleansing, and gut flora restoration programmes, but also comprehensive skin treatment that are results driven, and built upon years and years of experience including:

  • Micro-Needling
  • Microdermabrasion
  • IPL Laser Red Vein Removal
  • Diathermy thread vein removal
 

What is candida?

Candida is said to be one of the most common forms of unhelpful gut flora. It is thought that Candida and other imbalanced unhealthy gut flora cultures accumulate on the bowel wall. Certainly,  it is sometimes possible to see white fluffy cotton wool-like matter coming away during colonic hydrotherapy. During a probiotic implant, live friendly gut flora microbiome cultures have the opportunity to populate deep inside the lumen of the gut or bowel where they may grow and flourish to restore gut flora. It is thought that in the absence of this excess Candida, healthy live gut flora microbiome cultures can grow and become balanced. In fact, world leading gut health medical doctors like Dr. Perlmutter – author of Brain Maker and Wheat Belly- believe that the best way to restore gut flora is via a probiotic enema implant introduced directly into the bowel via enema. In recent times, gut friendly probiotic enemas have become part of many advanced symbiotic skin wellbeing programmes. The very best skin practitioners now recommend colonics and gut restoration as part of their programmes. Of course, any wellness strategy should be complimented with the introduction of dietary and exercise amendments for optimal results. Add to that,  topical application of probiotics, live gut flora microbiome cultures which are in are applied to the skin. And take an oral probiotic to ensure good gut flora is introduced directly into the gut, as well as being introduced deep into the skin through transdermal absorption in symbiotic skin products.

Probiotics Are Important to Overall Well-Being

It seems that everyone is talking about imbalanced gut flora these days. Certainly dysbiosis of the gut is a concern for anyone who has been exposed to antibiotics or other gut flora disturbing medication at least once in their lives. This can happen through exposure to harsh chemicals or over use of normal  medications, and antibiotics. The best probiotic is of course the one that reaches your gut in tact. That is why experts recommend direct probiotic implantation, available at Dublin Vitality Centre.

Imbalanced Gut Flora

Imbalanced gut flora can be linked to many conditions including gut and skin problems.  In recent times, care of the gut along with keeping it clear of bad gut flora, cleansing with colonics hydrotherapy, and replanting good gut flora has become a foundation to many people’s daily skin, and health care philosophy. Many world leading experts in the area of skincare, and probiotics believe in supplementing oral probiotics by adding probiotic enemas – which contain live healthy gut flora microbiome – to functional gut health programmes when making healthy changes to lifestyle.

There is A MICROSCOPIC GARDEN IN YOUR GUT

Consider the gut to be a microscopic garden of plants. There are thousands of scientific books about imbalanced gut flora and live culture microbiome out there. One simplified way to understand the connection between your inner wellbeing, and imbalanced gut flora is to imagine a biodiverse micro garden living deep inside your gut bowel walls. Imagine that inside your gut (aka bowel, colon, large intestine) there is a highly diverse  living microbiome garden. Deep inside the walls of the bowel all manner of nano plants, micro-organisms, biotics and cultures grow together in harmony and balance. Everything has its place in the garden. When there is balance in the garden of your gut, your immune system, skin and all body functions are optimised and you experience wellbeing, looking and feeling your best. If a weed comes along, it should not be able to proliferate because good flora plants dominate, and are there to control the balance. This is called “gut flora symbiosis”. Adding probiotics to a healthy lifestyle programme is the key to swinging the scales of gut flora biosis in your favour to see improvements to skin, immunity and overall well being.

GUT FLORA IMPLANTATION

According to Dr. David Perlmutter, a gut health expert, author, and second generation medical doctor who devoted his career to gut health after the death of his father from Alzheimer’s, the very best and most direct way to restore gut flora is through a series of probiotic implants directly into the bowel. At Dublin Vitality Centre, this is done weekly for at least 3 weeks. Following colonic hydrotherapy, probiotics are introduced directly into the bowel. Friendly gut flora microbes come into direct contact with the gut wall and have the opportunity to be absorbed.

WHAT IS GUT HEALTH?

Gut health means taking care of the gut through mindful healthy lifestyle practices and dietary choices. Many people now agree that gut health forms the structure on which their overall health, beauty and skincare rests because imbalanced gut flora is extremely common due to incorrect use of antibiotics and other drugs. It makes sense to integrate gut health into a healthy lifestyle programme since more and more evidence suggests that a vast number of wellbeing and skin issues manifest from poor or imbalanced gut health. Imbalanced gut flora affects 90% of the population according to. Dr. David Perlmutter, author of Brain Maker. And gut health is not just about the gut. It is about integrating mindfulness, and dietary awareness into a healthy lifestyle and exercise programme with the aim of improving all areas of the body and mind. Your gut is your colon is your bowel is your large intestine. All of these four things refer to the same organ.

WHERE DID THE IDEA OF GUT HEALTH COME FROM

All we know is that it’s nothing new. As far back as the 1930s, a scientist named Minoru Shirota discovered that certain cultures lived in the gut (aka colon, bowel). He found that care of the gut (colon) promoted long life. So he developed a drink called Yakult which contains probiotics, the food stuff that the gut flora needed . Oral probiotics must by-pass the digestive system, a system designed to kill bacteria. Probiotics implants may help as they are introduced directly into the bowel.

HOW CAN WE FIX IMBALANCED GUT FLORA AND STRENGTHEN THE GUT?

There is no definitive one size fits all answer to this question but certainly being mindful of the gut and bowel and keeping it balanced should become part of everyone’s priority in combination with healthy lifestyle and dietary changes. It is useful to understand what the gut is.The gut = colon = bowel = large intestine

Change Your Mind , Change Your Life

If you are feeling stuck in your ways. If life has stopped being fun, and you no longer enjoy your job, these feelings signify the need for change. But knowing how to change or what to do next is not always clear. Despite this, you do know the answers. Inside your mind lives the key. Only that your inner knowing has become switched off, buried underneath fears and worries and focus on someone else’s life choices, and purpose. Its time to take focus off what someone else is doing, and make your life about you. Just because it works for them does not make it the right thing for you. You owe it to yourself to find your own unique purpose, and to live the very best version of yourself that you can. If you are angry or jealous of another person’s success, this is a strong signal that what you are doing no longer serves you. Know that you have inside you a purpose that has yet to be discovered, honoured, and supported. The treasure that awaits is yet to found, and brought out into the world. Congratulations. There is something more for you to do.

This gentle healing therapy uses the psychology of colour to connect you with the most powerful parts of inner self-awareness. Learn to listen to your subconscious mind. Give yourself permission to find answers within yourself, and be all that you are meant to be. Book a personal Aura-Soma® Consultations at Dublin Vitality centre today and get ready for personal transformation.

 

Combine A Gut Health Colonic Course with an Aura-Soma® Consultation

 

Many people chose to undergo mind wellbeing programmes like  Aura-Soma® Consultations in combination with lifestyle and dietary changes when all other attempts to see improvements have not yielded the desired benefits. The effect of working holistically on body and mind simultaneously can render powerful improvements in your inner wellbeing. If you always wanted to try colonic irrigation or colonic hydrotherapy (its other name) but were put off by the loss of privacy, Vitality Centre Dublin has good news for you. The Harley Street Method is an advanced Med II device whereby it is possible to undergo colonic irrigation in absolute privacy. For many people this is the mind-leap they need to have a treatment they feel would benefit them. In the Harley Street Method, tubes are considerably smaller than in traditional methods (approximately the size of the tip of a pen and only inserted about 1 inch into the body). The Harley Street Method of colonic hydrotherapy takes its name from the famous street in London where the best treatments in the world are to be found. It is designed to allow for self insertion of the tube if preferred, and the system is equipped with a mini personal shower, an automatic odor vacuum and many other features which make colonic hydrotherapy accessible to those who are challenged by the idea of a loss of privacy. Forget everything you ever thought you knew about colonic irrigation and try The Harley Street Method today. You won’t look back. 

Vitality Centre Dublin is the only I-ACT internationally certified school of training for colonic hydrotherapy in Ireland. I-ACT is the only qualification accepted globally, even in the USA where the profession of colonic hydrotherapy is regulated by law.
