A colonic is the infusion of water or other liquids into the rectum by a colon therapist to cleanse and flush out the colon. It is also called colonic hydrotherapy or colon irrigation. A colonic is meant to remove waste that has accumulated in the colon and prevent or treat constipation. However, colon hydrotherapy might do more harm than good. Colon cleanses have been linked with parasitic infections, abscesses in the digestive tract, rectum and colon perforation, and heart failure.
