How Does Colon Hydrotherapy Work?
During a colon hydrotherapy session, warm, purified water is gently introduced into the colon through a small, single-use rectal nozzle. The water softens waste material, which is then released naturally through the body's own elimination process.
This cycle of filling and releasing repeats several times throughout the session. The entire process uses only water — no drugs, chemicals, or additives. You remain covered and comfortable in a private room throughout.
Our Angel of Water system is an open-design, FDA-cleared device that allows you to control your experience with guidance from our staff. Many clients find the process surprisingly relaxing.
How the Session Is Designed
Cleanse the Colon
Cleansing here means exactly one thing: warm water in, waste out, repeated over the session. That’s the whole of it.
What the water reaches is the lower colon — not your entire digestive tract, and not anything further up, whatever you may have read elsewhere. We’d rather say that plainly than let you arrive expecting something the equipment was never built to do.
Most guests describe feeling lighter afterward, and a little less full than when they came in.
Gravity, Not Pressure
Nothing is pumped or forced. The water is gravity-fed, which means it enters at very low pressure and stops on its own — your body sets the pace, not the equipment. It’s the reason the session feels less clinical than most people brace for, and the reason it stays unhurried.
Warm, Never Cold
The thing most people brace for is cold water. It never is. Ours runs between 98 and 103 degrees — close enough to your own body that most guests stop noticing it a minute or two in. If you’d like it a touch warmer or cooler within that range, just say so. It’s a small thing that turns out to be most of the difference between a session that feels comfortable and one that doesn’t.
Private, But Not Alone
Our staff stays with you through the first release, so you’re never left alone wondering whether something is going the way it should. After that they step out and the rest of the session is yours — they look in about every fifteen minutes, and there’s a call button beside you if you’d like them sooner. The open-system design means there’s no bedpan and no tubing to manage.
Why Do People Choose Colon Hydrotherapy?
Digestive Comfort
Many clients seek colonics to help relieve bloating and support overall digestive comfort.
Wellness Routine
Some people include colon hydrotherapy as part of their wellness routine to help with occasional constipation.
Alternative to Laxatives
Clients often choose colonics as a gentle alternative to frequent laxative use or enemas.
Pre-Procedure Prep
Some clients use colon hydrotherapy as preparation before medical procedures when recommended by their doctor.
GLP-1 Medications
GLP-1 medications slow digestion for a lot of people. Guests taking them often come in when things have stalled.
What Should I Expect During My First Colonic?
-
Complete Your Intake Online
Your health intake is completed and physician-reviewed before you arrive, so you walk in already cleared. After you book, we send you a link to the digital intake form. The $35 Health Assessment covers our physician's review and renews every 12 months.
-
Prepare & Arrive
Don't eat for 2 hours before your session or drink for 1 hour before, and wear socks, as our rooms run cool. On the day, our team welcomes you, confirms nothing has changed, and answers any questions. You'll be shown to a private room, where we explain the equipment and make sure you're comfortable before we begin.
-
The Session
The session itself takes about 45 minutes. Warm, purified water gently flows in and out on our Angel of Water open system, and you stay covered in your private room the whole time. Our staff guides you through it.
-
Wrap Up
Most clients return to normal activities immediately. After your session, you'll have private time to freshen up. Plan about one hour in total for a first visit.
-
Aftercare
Follow our aftercare guide for the first day or two. It covers hydration, what to eat, and what to expect in the days after your session. Read the aftercare guide.
Is Colon Hydrotherapy Safe?

Common Questions
Does colon hydrotherapy hurt?
Most clients describe colon hydrotherapy as relaxing and refreshing. Warm, purified water is introduced very gently. Some people notice mild pressure or brief cramping during the session, which usually passes quickly as the body releases waste.
Do I need a prescription for a colonic in Texas?
Yes. Texas requires a current prescription on file, so we know this service is safe for you before you come in. Our $35 Health Assessment covers it: you complete your health intake online and our physician reviews it before your first session. Every guest completes it, it renews every 12 months, and we are not able to accept a prescription from an outside physician.
How much does a colonic cost at Gravity One Studio?
A first visit is $140 plus the $35 Health Assessment. Return sessions are $99 for members and $115 for non-members. Session packs run from 3 for $297 to 10 for $900.
What is an open-system colonic?
An open-system colonic lets you release on your own, in private, with a therapist nearby rather than administering the release. Our Angel of Water units are open-system: you lie on a contoured basin, warm purified water flows in gently, and waste leaves through the basin whenever your body is ready. There is no bedpan and no tubing to manage, and a staff member stays within call the whole time.
How long does a colon hydrotherapy session take?
A typical session lasts about 45 minutes. For your first visit, we recommend allowing approximately one hour total.
How should I prepare for a colonic?
Don't eat for 2 hours before your session or drink for 1 hour before, and wear socks, as our rooms run cool. In the day before your appointment, limit alcohol, carbonated drinks, and heavy foods. Eating fruits and vegetables and avoiding gas-producing foods may help.

- Recent colon or rectal surgery
