We might like to think that our bodies have the ability to eliminate unwanted toxic materials but the reality is that we are constantly under assault from a range of unwelcome environmental pollutants, foods that trigger allergies and digestive distress, toxic personal care products, alcohol…and so to the list goes on. Our organs and digestive systems do their best to eliminate unwanted toxins but in reality they need extra help to cope with the onslaught they are under on a daily basis. At The Cleansing Space, we offer a range of effective detox and cleansing programmes to help restore order and return your body to optimum health. Through your detox and cleansing programme, you will learn about the impact of toxins on your body. Our aim is to help you achieve any desired lifestyle and dietary changes, supported by supplements if appropriate, to maintain your body in good health.
DETOX AND CLEANSING
Detox and cleansing are two slightly different but interlinked approaches to clearing toxicity from your body. Your therapist may help you make a choice between these approaches or guide you towards a combined approach for optimum results.
DETOX
The aim of any detox programme is to kick-start a metabolic process within the body to convert any toxins that are present into waste so that they can be eliminated. A detox will frequently focus on releasing the toxins that have built up in our blood stream, our fat storage cells and our organs, such as environmental pollutants, chemicals from cleaning and personal care products, metals and other synthetic compounds. The goal of a detox programme will be to ensure that the body’s detoxification pathways are clear and working efficiently. So, for example, one aspect of your detox programme may focus on the liver, which is the main organ of detoxification. Your detox programme may involve you taking special formulations designed to eliminate toxins from specific parts of the body. The Cleansing Space only uses the highest quality products for this purpose. Dietary changes, lifestyle modifications and herbal supplements may also be recommended.
Cleansing
A cleansing programme is mainly focused on the digestive tract from entry to exit. Author and naturopathic doctor Andrea Maxim, conjures up a good description of a cleanse. It’s like “sending somebody in with a scrub brush to “clean up” your insides and make them look pretty”, she says. A cleansing programme may look at eliminating certain foods from your diet that cause allergies and distress to your digestion system. So for example, a cleanse based around ‘whole foods’ may eliminate foods that encourage fungi in the tract such as candida. A ‘juice cleanse’ will flood your system with powerful nutrients and anti-oxidants. Not only will this help to improve the digestive tract, it will also have a major detoxifying effect on the body.
