History of colonic irrigation

The history of colonic irrigation started around 1500 B.C. in the ancient Egyptian document Ebers Papyrus, which dealt with medicine. Hypocrites (4th and 5th century B.C.) were recorded using enemas for fever therapy. Galen (2nd century A.D.) also recognized and promoted the use of enemas. In 1600 A.D., Pare offered the first distinction between colon hydrotherapy and the popular enema therapy of that age.

The factors that contributed mainly to the ambivalence were primarily due to the untrained and unskilled practice of colonic irrigation, which was detrimental to its professional growth when the therapy gained the attention of physicians such as James A. Wiltsie, M.D., and Joseph E.G. Waddington, M.D.

Dr Waddington: “Abnormal functioning of the intestinal canal is the precursor of much ill-health, especially of a chronic disease condition. Restoration of physiologic intestinal elimination is often the first. But too often ignored, important preliminary to the eventual restoration of the health in general.” Dr Wiltsie contends that “our knowledge of the normal and abnormal physiology of the colon, and its pathology and management. It has not kept pace with that of many organs and systems of the body. As long as we continue to assume that the colon will take care of itself, just that long will we remain in complete ignorance of perhaps the most important source of ill health in the whole body.”

Technological history of colonic irrigation

In summary, through misconceptions, misunderstandings and preconceived emotionalism. Historically, we recognize two unequivocal conclusions. First, there is something of value to this modality, or we would have conclusively withdrawn it. Second, through a lack of professional control and study, colonic irrigation never received the attention and recognition it justly deserves. Today, with modern technological advancements in colonic irrigation instrumentation, particularly concerning safety.

Along with educated and skilled hygienists, colonic irrigation has become a valuable adjunctive modality for physicians in treating disease. At this time, colon hydrotherapy is still relatively unknown and misunderstood. Colonic irrigation can be essential in achieving and maintaining vibrant health when combined with sound nutrition, exercise, and a positive mental and spiritual outlook.
