Colon Hydrotherapy - Merge Medical Center

I was born in a small town in Virginia and I always felt the need to serve people and help them with their problems. I became a doctor and moved away from that small town and travel the world with the Air Force for 12 years as a physician before I found my new home in Charleston South Carolina. I fell in love with the city because of their beaches , weather but mostly because the spirit behind the people that live here (as many call it the “friendliest city” in United States ) . Since then I’ve started a medical practice , met my wife and had three kids that are my world . In my practice I focused on the holistic side of medicine mind , body , and spirit because I never believed that just medicine could heal everything , I wanted to find the root cause to tackle the real reason behind a disease and help my patients healing not just treating the symptoms . It has always be in my heart to try to help the community with what talents and resources that I’ve been given to do so. I want to find those people in need who cannot otherwise afford our services and give generously to them.

So we are calling our community to nominate people in need that cannot afford this kind of services , please message us their name phone and brief explanation of why you think they are a good candidate to receive free services from us , and on Christmas day we will choose 1 nominee to we can guide them thru the journey of healing .
We also want our community to nominate families in need of material resources (clothes, toys,food, money, etc ) we will also choose 1 person or family and try to fulfill their lists, this is been a very hard year for many so we want to bless as many as we can .

Exercise

No surprise here: getting moving can…get things moving, at least for some people. Increasing physical activity is a frontline recommendation for those with idiopathic constipation—as little as 30 minutes a day may alleviate symptoms in some people. To be fair, though, findings are mixed, and there’s a lack of overwhelming evidence that daily exercise is effective for relieving constipation. (Exercise is wonderful for physical and mental health; it just might not be a silver bullet for constipation.)

Fiber for constipation

If f***s are about 75% water, that leaves 25% for solid material. Of this 25%, about one-third consists of indigestible matter such as cellulose and other fibers. With this in mind, it’s easy to see how inadequate fiber intake could contribute to constipation and why low fiber diets are a risk factor for constipation. An “n=1” experiment of increasing dietary fiber should tell someone within just a few days whether that simple intervention is enough to get things moving smoothly.

It should be noted, though, that while increased stool bulk may help stimulate colonic motility and improve transit time for some patients, in others, increasing dietary fiber can actually make things worse. If constipation is not caused by a lack of fiber, then adding more fiber would be unlikely to help. If dietary fiber is already adequate and colonic motility is compromised for some other reason, increased dietary fiber would result in larger, bulkier stools that are still not being eliminated in a timely manner, ultimately leading to more constipation. Increased bloating and abdominal distension resulting from increased fiber intake is often cited as a reason for not complying with advice to increase fiber consumption.

Some people who adopt a low-carb or ketogenic diet find that they have less frequent BMs. This is often attributed to the lack of fiber in ketogenic diets, but the truth is, between vegetables, nuts, seeds and low-sugar fruits, there’s plenty of room for fiber on keto. It’s possible the decreased frequency—which, again, does not necessarily indicate constipation—is due to the elimination of high-carb foods like grains and beans, which are gut irritants for many people, and which may have been causing artificially increased BM frequency.

Hydration

An obvious place to start is hydration. If someone is inadequately hydrated, the body may look to hold on to precious water from wherever it can, including by reabsorbing some from the stool, leading to stools that are hard, dry, and difficult to pass. (F***s are typically 75% water.) Proper hydration can prevent this, and many people across the age spectrum do not consume adequate water. If someone already does have sufficient water intake, though, increasing it further may be unlikely to help. According to researchers, “There is no evidence that constipation can successfully be treated by increasing fluid intake unless there is evidence of dehydration.” Nevertheless, fluid intake should be inquired about to rule out dehydration as a possibility, or to recommend increased water consumption if warranted.
