"...floating, weightless, swirling in space, stretching gently
into the soft resistance of water...limbs being folded and rocked, eyes closed, mind dancing with shadows, breathing with the Universe...

That’s what I felt during my Watsu®

Aqua Natal

 Colonics

: means Water Shiatsu. It was created in California in the eighties
by Harold Dull exploring Zen Shiatsu moves and stretches in the warm waters at
Harbin Hot Springs. Watsu®
 is now offered worldwide in spas, rehabilitation clinics
and private pools, as a powerful modality for healing trauma, injuries, stress and
as a deeply nourishing and relaxing massage treatment.

Watsu®
® is done in body-temperature warm water.

The client is being held, face above surface, ears below surface, relaxing, while gently swirled around, stretched and massaged by the Angel of Water.

The support water provides, takes the weight of the vertebrae and allows the spine to be moved in ways impossible on land. The warm water’s therapeutic benefits and its freeing of gravity's pull, make it an ideal modality for healing to happen on all levels.

Gentle twists and pulls relieve the pressure a rigid spine places on nerves, and helps undo dysfunction this pressure causes in the body. Our bodies are
more than 80% water, we naturally strive to flow to function optimally, We are Water Beings!.


Watsu®
® is for Everyone! Being held in the practitioners arms facilitates a space
where the receiver can completely relax, release and experience heartfelt presence and trust. To trust, let go of stress, gravity pull and tension, is cleansing, the waters gift! it is very healing, life giving, it allows our fluid healthy bodies to emerge again.

Water Dance: Is like Watsu®
 Massage. It begins with you being held, moved and relaxed above surface, then given nose clips to gradually gently, go entirely under the water surface. Once freed from the bounds of head support you can completely let go, dive deep into relaxation, move and let yourself release in literally unlimited ways.

It's queit and you only hear your heart beat! Liquid warmth caressing your skin, Shiatsu Massage pressure points and deep breath, sends energy through your now Fluid Body.

Dolphin like movements, snake rolls, somersaults, inversions, aikido and dance moves are just a few elements of this very creative, deep and beautiful Aquatic Therapy.

The healing effects of Water Dance:

include physical, mental and emotional release, as well as it may induce deep states of
relaxation, self-realization, meditation and bliss.

Colonics: also known as Colon Hydrotherapy, is the gentle infusion of warm, filtered water into the colon via the rectum, utilizing a small disposable speculum tube. It is like having a shower of the insides. Washing, hydrating and stimulating the colon to improve peristalsis (muscular movement) and elimination.

"Every tissue in the body
is fed by the bloodstream, which is supplied by the bowel. When the bowel is dirty, so are the organs and tissues, It is the bowel that must be cared for first"
- Dr Bernard Jensen.

Over 60,000 people die from colon cancer every year. Millions suffer from terrible health problems caused directly or indirectly by a toxic colon.

The natural immune system can only be built up by a clean colon, a body with minimal amount of accumulated toxic material. Health begins in the colon!

A session is about 45 minutes on the table, 15 min to get ready and complete the session. It is quite a relaxing experience, with a lot of nurturing meridian and lymph draining massage. The system is closed with no offensive odor and the client is covered during the procedure. Time to breathe, relax and release.

A series of at least 3 colonics is recommended to support the body’s cleansing cycle which takes about one month. A couple of sessions the first week, then one or two for the next three weeks as part of a deep cleansing treatment, combined with proper nutrition, hydration, exercise and relaxation.

Some of the positive results people often experience is the feeling of lightness, cleanliness, increase of energy and clarity. Others may experience a clearing of mind/body distress, ease from constipation, body imbalances, aches and pain.

A new sense of awareness, a new beginning, a blessing from the Angel of Water.

Some peoples concerns is that colonics flush out friendly bacteria. It is true, it does do that, along with washing out the waste, gas and harmful bacteria. However after cleansing, there is a better internal environment for the friendly bacteria to flourish and grow back again naturally. Along with a healthy lifestyle and flora supplements, colonics are very safe. "With all the healing work I do, colonics are probably the most potent in relieving a persons toxic condition, it sure changed my life!" - Ninaya
