Dilys' Story - Colonic Hydrotherapy

‘“Those who do not find some time every day for health must sacrifice a lot of time one day for illness.”

- Father Sebastian Kneipp

When the threat of death stares you in the face, you experience many emotions, fear - perhaps not of dying, but of losing life. Anger – ‘Why should it happen to me?’ ‘It’s not fair’; panic – ‘What shall I do?’ ‘I feel helpless.’

“I’m not sure how long I sat there contemplating the prospect of suicide for I was not sure that I had within me the resources to deal with this. At that moment life felt not only cruel but without hope.

My various emotions turned to anger at those medical people who had told me I had but a short time to live. ‘How dare they tell me I am going to die. Only God has the right to make that decision.’ I took from my briefcase a notepad and pen and began writing down what I really wanted. What were the positive aspects of my life (the resources) that would now help me through this crisis? I knew I had choices. What were some of the choices, my life was offering me? I decided there and then to walk down a different avenue, after all as Joel Wallach (an American vet who retrained, because of his own illness to a naturopathic life) always says – there is always the operation. Other people had chosen the route of natural medicine, why then should I not explore this same path?”

This is from the start of my web site which may be found on www.colonichydrotherapyuk.com, if you are interested please read it, together with the explanation of colonic hydrotherapy on www.colonic-association.org.

The photograph above is of a 72-year young woman who is full of life and energy because she decided to change her lifestyle a little from where she was, to where she is today. Changing can be a big leap into the unknown for many people, but without this change we cannot necessarily find true health and vitality. Thirteen years ago, as you will read, I was threatened with the end of my life if I did not do something about the state I was in. Through investigation and determination I am now more vibrant than I was in my fifties. I enjoy life to the full work most of the week helping others to find the solution to why they are feeling the way they do.

I became a naturopath offering kinesiology, nutrition, herbal and homoeopathic medication and colonic hydrotherapy in my work. I am also a fully qualified NLP practitioner and Health practitioner which means I have much to offer clients working towards a life-changing state. I cover not only physical problems, but help you with psychological and emotional issues which may be responsible for the physical state in which you find yourself.

In London I work at The Integrated Medical Centre, 43 New Cavendish Street, London W1G 9TH (0207224 5111). I also have practices in Bridgewater, Somerset, Exeter, Devon, and Cornwall. If you need to see me outside of London, please telephone my mobile 07050037812 or contact me by email dlysgannon@aol.com
