Colonics - The Treatment Rooms, 9 Witham Road, Skelmersdale (2026)

Menopause can bring a whole list of changes we expect… and quite a few we don’t.

Your digestion can be one of them.

Bloating that seems to appear from nowhere.
Bowels becoming slower or less predictable.
Feeling heavier or more uncomfortable than you used to.
And sometimes just feeling that your body is doing its own thing.

I hear this so often from women in my clinic.

For me, menopause isn’t something that needs “fixing”. It’s a stage of life where sometimes we need to understand our bodies a little differently and find the things that help us feel more comfortable.

For some women, colonic hydrotherapy can form part of that self-care, alongside the basics that matter too — hydration, nutrition, movement, sleep and managing stress.

Sometimes it’s also about giving yourself an hour where you can switch off, talk about what’s going on and focus on you.

If your digestion has changed during perimenopause or menopause and you’re wondering whether colonic hydrotherapy may be suitable for you, talk to me, that’s what I’m here for.

Menopause doesn’t just affect periods, temperature and mood — your digestive system can feel the change too.

As oestrogen and progesterone fluctuate, some women notice their digestion simply isn’t behaving quite like it used to.

More bloating.
Constipation or slower bowel movements.
Changes in how often you go.
That uncomfortable feeling that you haven’t quite finished.

And sometimes it seems to happen even though you haven’t changed what you’re eating.

I see this so often in clinic — women telling me, “My digestion has just changed since menopause.”

So what can we do?

Supporting hydration, movement, fibre, regular eating patterns, stress and sleep can all be important. And for some women, colonic hydrotherapy becomes another part of looking after their digestive wellbeing, particularly when constipation, bloating and that heavy, sluggish feeling have become frustrating.

Menopause is a transition for your whole body.

Your gut goes through menopause with you.

Have you reached the point where you feel like you’ve tried everything for your constipation or bloating?

More fibre. More water. Probiotics. Supplements. Cutting things out. Adding things in.

And every time you Google it, there seems to be another thing you’re supposed to be doing.

But your bowel still isn’t playing ball.

This is something I hear so often in clinic.

The problem is, your bowel doesn’t know what Google says it should be doing.

And what helps one person may not be right for another.

For example, “eat more fibre” sounds simple — but if you’ve suddenly piled loads more fibre into your diet and you’re already bloated, windy or struggling to empty properly, you might just end up feeling even more uncomfortable.

That’s why I like to actually talk about YOUR bowel.

How often are you going? What does your poo look like? Do you strain? Do you feel finished? When are you bloated? What are you eating and drinking? Are you moving enough? Have your medications changed? What’s your normal routine?

Sometimes there are little clues in that conversation that you simply don’t get from typing “why am I constipated?” into Google at 11pm.

And you don’t need to arrive at my clinic knowing what’s wrong or what you need.

Just tell me what’s been happening.

If you’re struggling with constipation, bloating or changes in your bowel habits and you’d like to talk about whether colonic hydrotherapy may be suitable for you, get in touch.

I will support the best I can.

Does your bowel go on holiday before you do?

You’re absolutely fine at home… then you travel and suddenly nothing is happening.

Holiday constipation is something I hear about all the time in clinic.

Think about how much changes when we go away.

Early flights, sitting for hours, different meal times, eating different foods, drinking less water, more alcohol, less movement and a completely different morning routine.

And then there’s the big one…

“I needed to go, but I didn’t like the toilet.”

So you hold it.

Your bowel loves routine, and when we suddenly change that routine it can affect when and how easily we poo.

A few things I’d think about when travelling:

Keep drinking water, particularly when flying.

Get moving when you can.

Try not to completely abandon your usual morning routine.

Give yourself time to sit on the toilet rather than rushing out for the day.

And when you feel the urge to go, try not to keep putting it off because you’d rather wait until you find a “nice toilet”.

If only our bowels understood we’ve paid good money for this holiday and would just behave themselves!

If travelling regularly leaves you constipated, bloated and uncomfortable — or you come home feeling like your bowel needs a little support getting back into its normal routine — talk to me.

That’s what I’m here for.

Have you found yourself coming back to the idea of training in colonic hydrotherapy?

Maybe you’re a nurse or healthcare professional thinking about doing something different.

Maybe you already work in health, beauty or wellbeing and you’d like to add another professional skill.

Or maybe you’ve been looking at colonic hydrotherapy training for a while, but you’re not quite sure whether it’s the right path for you.

You don’t have to have it all figured out before you contact me.

And you certainly don’t have to be ready to enrol.

My RICTAT-accredited Colonic Hydrotherapy Foundation Training combines in-depth theory with supervised, hands-on practical clinical training at The Treatment Rooms in Skelmersdale, Lancashire.

During your practical training you’ll work with real clients and complete a minimum of 15 treatments, building your confidence gradually rather than simply watching from the sidelines.

But for me, training someone to become a colonic hydrotherapist is about much more than learning how to use the equipment.

It’s learning how to consult properly, understand your client, recognise when treatment may or may not be appropriate, work safely and professionally, and develop the confidence to actually step into practice afterwards.

And the support doesn’t suddenly disappear when your training finishes.

If becoming a qualified colonic hydrotherapist is something you’ve been thinking about, send me a message.

Ask me the questions.

Tell me what you currently do and what you’re hoping to achieve.

We can have a conversation and see whether the training feels right for you.

No pressure to enrol.

Talk to me, that’s what I’m here for.

Clinic Companion Guides – £4 each
View the collection: https://colonic-training.co.uk/courses

Colonic therapists — have you ever been halfway through a consultation when a client mentions something and you think…

“Hang on, what do I need to consider here?”

Maybe they have ulcerative colitis or haemorrhoids. Perhaps they’re taking anticoagulants or steroids. Or they mention a medical condition or medication you haven’t come across for a while.

You know you’ve learnt about it before, but sometimes you just need something you can quickly refer back to.

That’s exactly why I created the Clinic Companion Guides.

They’re short, practical reference guides designed specifically for colonic hydrotherapists — helping you refresh your knowledge, consider the important questions and understand the information that may be relevant.

They don’t make the decision for you.

They give you information to support your understanding so that you can make your own professional decisions in clinic.

And at just £4 each, you can build your own little reference library around the subjects most useful to you.

Collect 6 guides = 1 CPD point.

Available now in The Treatment Rooms Learning Hub, with more subjects being added to the collection.

Practical information, there when you need it.

Educational graphic for colonic hydrotherapists promoting The Treatment Rooms Learning Hub Clinic Companion Guides. Highlights quick-reference information for situations involving haemorrhoids, ulcerative colitis, anticoagulants and steroids, with further guides including diabetes and blood pressure. Guides cost £4 each and collecting six earns 1 CPD point. Designed to support practitioners’ knowledge and professional decision-making in clinic.

Please don’t ever be embarrassed to talk to me about your poo.

Too much information? Not in my clinic.

Constipation, diarrhoea, wind, mucus, haemorrhoids, funny colours, strange smells, going five times a day or not going for five days… I promise, I’ve heard an awful lot over the years.

And sometimes it’s the thing you’re most embarrassed to tell me that actually helps me understand what’s been going on.

When I ask about your bowel habits, I’m not just asking how often you go.

What does your poo look like?
Is it hard or loose?
Do you have to strain?
Do you feel properly finished afterwards?
Are you bloated or uncomfortable?
Has something recently changed?

These conversations are completely normal to me.

I’m an experienced colonic hydrotherapy practitioner and I spend every working day talking about bowels, digestive health and poo. There is absolutely no judgement in my treatment room.

So please don’t sit at home worrying that something is “too embarrassing” to mention.

If you’re struggling with constipation, bloating or changes in your bowel habits and wondering whether colonic hydrotherapy may be suitable for you, come and have a chat with me.

Talk to me, that’s what I’m here for.

Have you started choosing what you wear based on how bloated you think you’re going to be later?

You put something on in the morning and it fits perfectly… then by late afternoon you’re undoing the button, pulling at the waistband or wishing you’d worn something loose.

Sound familiar?

Bloating is one of the things clients talk to me about most in clinic, and there can be lots of things worth looking at.

Are you constipated or not quite emptying properly?
Does the bloating happen after particular foods?
Are you eating quickly or eating on the go?
Has your bowel routine changed?
Are you getting lots of wind?
Does your tummy feel comfortable in the morning but gradually become more distended as the day goes on?

Sometimes we get so used to digestive symptoms that we simply adapt around them — including changing what we eat, what we wear and even where we go.

That’s why I like to look at the bigger picture.

When you come to see me for colonic hydrotherapy, we talk. I want to know what YOUR normal looks like, what’s changed and what your bowel is actually doing.

No embarrassment. No judgement. And definitely no need to apologise for talking about poo.

I do this every day.

So if you’re struggling with bloating, constipation or changes in your bowel habits and you’re wondering whether colonic hydrotherapy may be suitable for you, talk to me. That’s what I’m here for.

“Why do I still feel like I need to poo after going to the toilet?”

Going every day doesn’t always mean everything is working as well as it could be.

Maybe you go to the toilet daily, but…

You still feel like there’s more to come.
You sit there for ages waiting for something to happen.
You have to strain or really work at it.
Or what you’re passing is hard, small, loose or just doesn’t feel like a good, complete bowel movement.

These are things I hear from clients all the time — often followed by, “But I go every day, so I thought I wasn’t constipated.”

Your bowel habits are about more than just frequency.

It’s not always how often you go — it’s about HOW you poo and what it looks like too.

If your bowel habits don’t feel quite right, even though you’re going regularly, come and have a chat with me.

Tracy explains that going to the toilet every day does not necessarily mean you are emptying well. She discusses feeling like there is more to come, sitting on the toilet for a long time, straining, and changes in stool appearance. She explains that healthy bowel habits are not only about how often you poo, but how you poo and what it looks like too.
