During colon massage, the large intestine (colon) is stroked or massaged in the direction of its physiological course.
This form of treatment is used when a patient suffers from chronic constipation, for example.
The exact course of the massage is clockwise from the lower right to the lower left, with small spiral movements. The duration should be at least 5 minutes, so that the application can have an optimal effect.
The massage form should not be used in the following diseases without medical consultation: Crohn's disease/Colitis Ulcerosa, current inflammations in the abdominal area, intestinal obstruction, pregnancy and a cancerous disease in the area of application.
