		<description>1) It is somewhat misleading to say it is known as &quot;colonic hydrotherapy&quot;. A far more common name for it is &quot;colonic irrigation&quot;. 

2) It&#039;s highly misleading to state that colonic irrigation is offered by doctors, i.e physicians. No, FYI, they don&#039;t do it. For constipation, the most they offer you is drugs; i.e. a laxative drug of some sort. In sharp contrast, colonic irrigation is an &quot;alternative&quot; treatment, offered by independent practicioners, called &quot;colonic irrigators&quot;. 

3) The http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colon_hydrotherapy page is somewhat misleading because it implies colonic irrigators use enema kits like the one in the picture in
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Combination_enema_and_douche_syringe.jpg . No, they don&#039;t use cheap, plastic enema kits like that! They&#039;ve got equipment that is far more sohisticated than what you see in that picture!

4) Quoting the American Cancer Society (ACS), Wikipedia also says, &quot;No scientific evidence supports the alleged benefits of colon cleansing.&quot; By saying this, both the ACS and the Wikipedia tend to imply colonic irrigation is both irrelevant and unnecessary. However... 

A) Both of them fail to objectively consider the pros and cons of colon cleansing. And... 

B) Both of them fail to say that there is no scientific evidence against using colonic irrigation for occasional constipation. And... 

C) Both of them fail to say that some people do need something, from time to time, for constipation. And... 

D) Both of them fail to say that using colonic irrigation is certainly healthier than using drugs!</description>
