What is a cleanse and detox?

The practice of detoxifying the body to get rid of unhealthy toxins has been around for many, many centuries. A cleanse & detox program typically uses treatments such as diet planning, physical activities, as well as blood detoxification in order to eliminate harmful toxins that have built up in your body. It is especially beneficial for cleansing ones arteries, lymph nodes, organs, colon and skin.

Why should I do a cleanse and detox?

Regular detoxing can help strengthen the functioning of your immune system and can help fight off infection. Toxins affect your body’s natural ability to burn fat, leading to weight gain. Detoxing can help rid the body of toxins stored in fat cells and increase your metabolism rate.

The top ten main reasons for a cleanse and detox are:

• Remove toxins from the body
• Prevent chronic disease
• Enhance immune system function
• Lose weight
• Slow premature ageing
• Improve the quality of life
• Increase your energy levels
• Improve the quality of your skin

• Restore balance to your body’s systems

What is included in the cleanse and detox package with The Orchard?

The Orchard’s cleanse and detox package can be broken down into two sets of procedures; Far Infrared (FIR) Medical Sauna Detox and Colonic Therapy.

FIR treatment is where far infrared waves penetrate your skin cells in order to raise your body temperature and gently remove toxins through perspiration. It’s different from conventional saunas and enables the body to perspire at lower temperatures, which helps improve blood circulation. This procedure can also relieve pain and muscle tightness, stabilize your blood pressure and aid detoxification and weight loss efforts. This procedure is recommended for those who cannot tolerate excessive heat of regular saunas, those who wish to cleanse the body and burn calories and those who wish to remove chemicals and toxins from the body.

Colonic therapy is a common practice done in order to alleviate gastrointestinal symptoms. It is done by applying warm filtered water into the colon in order to remove unwanted materials in the bowel. Ozone gas is also used to maintain your colon health. Colonic hydrotherapy is a hygienic and odourless method of reducing constipation and soothing bowel inflammation that can be caused by infection. The procedure can also enhance nutrient absorption, cleanse and disinfect the colon and also alleviate irritable bowel syndrome.
