Everything you need to know about colon hydrotherapy

Last updated: September 2026 · Reviewed by Gravity One Studio's certified staff

Why is colon health important?

Colon health plays an important role in overall wellness and digestive comfort. When waste builds up in the colon, it can affect how your body feels and functions over time. At Gravity One Studio, we focus on providing modern colon hydrotherapy sessions in a calm, professional setting to support digestive wellness.

Is modern colon hydrotherapy safe?

Modern colon hydrotherapy is widely considered safe when performed using FDA-cleared equipment and proper protocols. Today's systems use gentle, purified water and standardized procedures. Many people choose colon hydrotherapy as an alternative to frequent laxative use or enemas.

What is the difference between colon hydrotherapy, enemas, and laxatives?

Colon hydrotherapy gently cleanses the full length of the large intestine, which is approximately five to six feet long. Enemas typically reach only the lower portion of the colon. Laxatives work by irritating the colon to stimulate bowel movement and may contribute to dehydration, while colon hydrotherapy focuses on hydration and gentle cleansing.

Does colon hydrotherapy hurt?

Most clients describe colon hydrotherapy as relaxing and refreshing. Warm, purified water is introduced very gently. Some people notice mild pressure or brief cramping during the session, which usually passes quickly as the body releases waste.

Do I need a prescription for a colonic in Texas?

Yes. Texas requires a current prescription on file, so we know this service is safe for you before you come in. Our $35 Health Assessment covers it: you complete your health intake online and our physician reviews it before your first session. Every guest completes it, it renews every 12 months, and we are not able to accept a prescription from an outside physician.

How much does a colonic cost at Gravity One Studio?

A first visit is $140 plus the $35 Health Assessment. Return sessions are $99 for members and $115 for non-members. Session packs run from 3 for $297 to 10 for $900.

Is the Health Assessment included in packages?

No. The $35 Health Assessment is a separate fee and is never discounted or bundled into a pack. It covers our physician's review of your health intake, and it renews every 12 months.

What is an open-system colonic?

An open-system colonic lets you release on your own, in private, with a therapist nearby rather than administering the release. Our Angel of Water units are open-system: you lie on a contoured basin, warm purified water flows in gently, and waste leaves through the basin whenever your body is ready. There is no bedpan and no tubing to manage, and a staff member stays within call the whole time.

Who should not receive colon hydrotherapy?

Colon hydrotherapy is not recommended for individuals with certain medical conditions, including recent colon or rectal surgery, colon or rectal cancer, uncontrolled high blood pressure, kidney disease, severe hemorrhoids, abdominal hernias, gastrointestinal bleeding, aneurysms, or during pregnancy. A full list of contraindications is reviewed prior to booking.

Is there any risk of cross-contamination?

No. All tubing, nozzles, and supplies are single-use and disposed of after each client. Our equipment includes safety features that ensure fresh, purified water for every session. We also follow hospital-grade cleaning and disinfecting protocols.

How long does a colon hydrotherapy session take?

A typical session lasts about 45 minutes. For your first visit, we recommend allowing approximately one hour total.

How many colonic sessions do most people need?

The number of sessions varies based on individual needs and digestive patterns. Some people benefit from multiple sessions over a few weeks, while others schedule occasional maintenance visits. Many clients choose monthly sessions as part of ongoing wellness support.

How should I prepare for a colonic?

Don't eat for 2 hours before your session or drink for 1 hour before, and wear socks, as our rooms run cool. In the day before your appointment, limit alcohol, carbonated drinks, and heavy foods. Eating fruits and vegetables and avoiding gas-producing foods may help.

Can I get a colonic during my menstrual cycle?

Yes. Many clients find colon hydrotherapy comfortable during their menstrual cycle. Menstruation does not interfere with the session.

Will I feel tired or uncomfortable afterward?

Most people feel fine after their session. Occasionally, mild fatigue or nausea may occur after a first visit and usually resolves within 24 hours. Rest and hydration are recommended if this happens.

Can I return to work after a colonic session?

Yes. Most clients return to their normal daily activities immediately after their session.

Do you offer discounts for military or first responders?

Yes. Gravity One Studio proudly supports active military members and first responders. A $10 courtesy discount is available with valid credentials.
