Colon Hydrotherapy Units Market to Witness an Outstanding Growth by 2026


Colon hydrotherapy unit is a safe and completely natural procedure of gentle rinsing of the colon with purified warm water, to remove encrusted fecal matter, gas and mucus, using no chemicals or drugs. In the procedure, water is gently infused into the colon via the rectum, using no drugs. Colon hydrotherapy cleanses the colon, removes stagnant fecal material from colon walls, solves intestine problems, preventing the buildup of bacterial toxins in the ports and lymphatic system, and reduces load on the liver, besides removing toxic waste. With advancement in technology, therapists use hygienic closed systems, with clean, filtered water to cleanse the colon quickly and easily, with no fuss, no mess or smell, making modern colon hydrotherapy safer. However, essence of the therapy has remained the same – a gentle wash out of the colon or large intestine, using warm water to remove waste matter, rehydrate, and exercise the bowel.

Increase in prevalence of colon cancer and improved diagnostic techniques, such as closed system colon hydrotherapy to cleanse the colon quickly and easily, are the major factors expected to boost the growth of the global Colon Hydrotherapy Units Market during the forecast period. However, lack of awareness about technological advancements in diagnostic tools for colon hydrotherapy is likely to restrain the market during the forecast period. Increasing geriatric population and changing lifestyle of people are the major causes of digestive disorders, including IBS, constipation, bloating, and wind. Being one of the most commonly occurring disorders, the demand for digestive disorder treatment is growing at a significant rate.

The global colon hydrotherapy unit market can be segmented based on product type, end–user, and region. Based on product type, the market has been classified into mobile colon hydrotherapy unit, and fixed colon hydrotherapy unit. In terms of end-user, the global colon hydrotherapy unit market has been divided into hospitals, clinics, and others. The hospitals segment is expected to register a comparatively high CAGR during the forecast period, owing to increasing incidence of gastric disorders. This is expected to create a large patient pool requiring colon hydrotherapy, leading to increase in the consumption of colon hydrotherapy unit across the globe during the forecast period. The growth of the segment can also be attributed to increasing government and private funding and rising preference among physicians and patients to perform colon hydrotherapy in a hospital-based environment.
