How is Tattwa Different
Our Facility
Our Facility has two private Colonic
rooms, equipped with a modern
LIBBE Open-System, Class II medical device, registered
with the FDA and designed to provide privacy, be relaxing
and comfortable. Our therapists are I-ACT, NBCHT and
LIBBE certified. We use only hospital grade disposables
which are sanitary and fresh for every client. Additionally,
we offer digestive education, consultation, to track,
measure and assist with digestive health via support
from enzymes, probiotics and nutritional guidance.
Benefits of An Open System
Unlike the “closed systems”
where the therapist must assist in all aspects of
the treatment, including insertion and manually draining
the patient’s colon, Tattwa only uses updated
modern, state-of-the-art “open system”
technology.
The Open System is far more comfortable,
hygienic and private. Tattwa uses the LIBBE open system,
which has been registered as a Class II medical device
by the FDA. It is an ergonomically designed fiberglass
recliner-bed, with a drain attached. However, the
real benefit of the open system is that it allows
the client to have the utmost privacy and it is comfortable
and sanitary with a built in odor exhaust system.
At Tattwa, once the therapist has
explained how to gently insert the disposable rectal
tube, they leave the room. At all times during the
treatment, the client is covered by a disposable drape,
maintaining the utmost privacy in a sanitary manner.
During the session the colon is gently irrigated with
gravity fed, temperature controlled, filtered water.
Each colon hydrotherapy session lasts
approximately 45 minutes, during which Tattwa’s
knowledgeable therapists will periodically return
to demonstrate how the client may massage their abdomen
to promote the release of the accumulated waste matter,
ensure progress and discuss possible corrective adjustments.
