About Wellness Within

I'm Nicola Gray-Devine, and as well as being a registered colon hydrotherapist, I'm also a qualified and practicing pharmacist. I'm a level 3 qualified gym instructor, and level 4 qualified personal trainer. I also have a degree in sports science and I'm a former international hockey player.

Colon hydrotherapy or Colonic Irrigation / Colonics is a safe, effective method of removing waste and toxic by-products from the large intestine, without the use of drugs or chemicals. The hydrotherapy colon cleanse provides instant relief from constipation, and helps with a wide range digestive issues, as well as improving many other aspects of our daily health and vitality.

Overtime, old faecal matter can build up in the colon resulting in the peristaltic (muscular) action of the colon being diminished or reduced which results in constipation and inadequate bowel movements.

Colonic hydrotherapy is a safe and effective way of gently removing the faecal matter which may not be otherwise removed especially if constipation is an issue. By gently introducing water into the bowel, this stimulates the peristaltic (muscular) activity causing the bowel to empty itself. It therefore exercises the bowel and improves its functioning. Once the impacted material is removed from the colon, this will allow it to function more efficiently.

Colonic hydrotherapy helps to remove toxic material that has built up over time. If elimination of waste material is poor, this can lead to hormonal imbalances (inadequate removal of hormones), acne, skin problems (eczema, psoriasis) as toxic substances are removed through the skin instead of the bowel. Therefore colonic hydrotherapy can have a number of beneficial effects not only on the bowel itself.

Colonic hydrotherapy can also help with intestinal bacteria issues such a SIBO and recurrent thrush. By altering the bacteria present in the colon during treatment and combined with an improved diet, this can aid in allowing the beneficial bacteria to ‘thrive’ and preventing ‘harmful’ bacteria from surviving and causing havoc on our bodies.

Warm, filtered water is introduced into the colon which helps soften and loosen the waste, resulting in evacuation through natural peristalsis. This process is repeated a few times during a session. The water temperature can be varied slightly which has a profound effect upon the motility of the bowel. It enables water to be fed around the whole bowel, helping to alter peristalsis (or muscular rhythm) of the bowel itself. This helps to improve bowel function, reduce the transit time and reduce toxins by elimination.

Gentle abdominal massage is used during the treatment to aid peristalsis and removal of waste products. Herbal infusions are also incorporated (as appropriate) to assist detox, support liver function and remove gas, this is a complimentary part of your treatment at no extra cost.

The treatment encourages the digestive system to work efficiently and effectively.

The theory behind using water to improve elimination is simple; constipation, or bowel status, leads to higher levels of toxic substances produced in the bowel by bacterial fermentation, being reabsorbed into the bloodstream and then in turn effecting other organs of elimination in the body; the lungs (bad breath), the skin (spots, dryness, eczema), and the bladder (highly coloured urine). In some cases where there has been a long history of constipation, this can cause issues to other organs, intestinal cells, as well as hormonal and bacterial imbalances leading to ill health and symptoms of diseases.

​Modern diets, stress and our more sedentary lifestyles have lead to the build up of faeces in curved pockets of the bowel. Colonic irrigation has an inlet for water and an outlet for waste. The water introduced during a colonic helps to soften the stools that may not otherwise be released naturally.

The treatment itself was painless and the feeling upon completion was like having a new body

5 50 Colonic Irrigation • Paid: €120

I had general digestive and bloating issues so since it was several years from the last colonic I decided to try Wellness Within. I have to say the service and facilities were of the highest standards and Nicola completely put my mind at ease as she explained the process in detail. The treatment itself was painless and the feeling upon completion was like having a new body. I will definitely bring having a treatment every 6 months.

Biography:

I am a qualified pharmacist. I have a BSc in Health and Performance Science (University College Dublin), BSc in pharmacy (Royal College of Surgeons Ireland) and a Masters in Pharmacy (Royal Collect of Surgeons Ireland). After qualifying as a pharmacist, I went on to obtain my qualification in Colon Hydrotherapy in 2019. I trained with The National College of Colon Hydrotherapy (NCCH) in Woolacombe, England; with one of the founders of The Association of Registered Colon Hydrotherapists, UK (ARCH).

I have always played sports at a high level, most recently playing for the Irish Women’s Hockey Team. I am a qualified fitness instructor and personal trainer holding a level 3 and 4 qualification.

Feel your best

I am passionate about helping others feel their best and learn to overcome health issues which they are experiencing.

I have experienced colonics from a gravity fed system and machine based systems. Through my own experience and from speaking to other highly qualified colon hydrotherapists, the Gravity system is always referred to as the superior treatment system, providing a deeper cleanse and detox, especially for those with constipation as it removes much more old impacted feacal matter than machines. This in turn means that it can remove much more in one treatment than the machine systems and therefore generally less treatments are required to restore optimal health.

Chronic Constipation

I was living with chronic constipation and digestive issues for years so I understand the role it can play not only on your physical comfort but also your mental health. I suffered from chronic bloating, digestive problems and constipation leading to the reliance on daily enemas before I began using colonics. I underwent colonoscopy’s and other procedures to try and find out what may be the cause, however no apparent cause was found. When I heard about colonics I decided to see if they could help me in my situation. Even after one colonic I felt the immense benefits of it. Since then, I have been using colonics to help maintain my health and keep my digestive issues and constipation at bay. I always find it acts as a reset for my body when I’m struggling with digestive issues.

Career Expansion

I decided to expand my career from working as a pharmacist when I realized how many people were suffering from digestive issues especially constipation and IBS. I was constantly supplying remedies in the pharmacy and I felt that the provision of colonics for many of these patients would be life changing. After seeing the immense benefits that colonics provided to me as well as others, I chose to study as a colonic hydrotherapist in order to provide the same relief to others that I experienced myself.

I am so aware of how food, exercise, stress and other daily habits can impact how we feel as well as how our body functions. I am really passionate about helping people improve their digestive health, learn to take control their digestive health and to help people feel better through the use of colonics, diet and exercise.
