However, in some cases, girls 16 years and above can have a colonic irrigation treatment done.

Additionally, the foetus and baby are vulnerable to any changes or increased toxin exposure within the mother's system.

Avoid rich, spicy, sugary and greasy foods and raw vegetables immediately after the session. Alcohol should also be avoided as it can dehydrate the body and interfere with the post-treatment recovery process.<\/p>\n          <\/div><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"faq-item\">\n          <div class=\"faq-q\" onclick=\"toggleFaq(this)\">\n            <h3>How often should I have colonic irrigation?<\/h3>\n            <span class=\"faq-toggle\"><i class=\"fa-solid fa-plus\"><\/i><\/span>\n          <\/div>\n          <div class=\"faq-a\"><div class=\"faq-a-inner\">\n            <p>This varies depending on the individual.
