Colon Hydrotherapy is the safe, gentle infusion of warm, filtered water into and out of the rectum and large intestine using no chemicals or drugs. There are 2 techniques. One is a continuous fill without pressure simulating a gravity type colonic. The other is a slow fill with a series of fill and release stages which is more typical of a closed system colonic. A state-of-the-art, FDA-cleared, self-sanitizing colon hydrotherapy system allows us to regulate temperature and pressure while maintaining maximum safety. We have created a nurturing, serene, and safe environment wherein your privacy and sense of well-being are easily established. Our service uses hygienic and comfortable disposable equipment with multi-filtered, purified water. Skilled practitioners guide you through a relaxing experience, integrating abdominal and pressure-point massage when appropriate. Many clients have come to The Natural Path Alternative simply because of the colonic device used. It is a non gravity which provides the security of having many water filters while maintaining an easy water flow that matches the flow of the body.

Iridology is the science and practice of analyzing the iris, pupil and sclera of the eye to determine inherited and accumulated health patterns. It is a science that has been used for interpreting health as far back as 1000 BC. The eyes we are born with give us a natural, economical, and non-invasive approach to assess our health. However, over time, lifestyle habits change our eyes. Through the optic nerves information is sent to the brain and receives messages back about our overall health. Accumulations of inorganic materials and toxins, inflammation, and assimilation difficulties can all be seen in the eye. Iridology is a painless method of assessment, allowing detection of health imbalances for preventative health. A personalized herbal program accompanies all iridology sessions. The lymphatic system is a complicated network of vessels and nodes that distribute our infection fighting cells of our immune system. Lymphatic Drainage help aide this system avoiding toxicity. The benefits of acupuncture and our 30 Day Detox as well as our other cleanses are numerous. All Our therapies work together to form a complete wellness program.
