Norovirus – can a colonic help?

Noro Virus has been around for a long time but used to be referred to as a stomach bug or viral gastro-enteritis. For the last 5 years it has a gone under a new name, and is now commonly known as the Noro Virus. The severity of the virus appears to have escalated to new highs in recent years.

It is today highly contagious and continues to spread like wildfire particularly in schools, hospitals and care-homes for the elderly, more so in the winter months.

On a global scale it affects millions of us each year. It can be so severe for some young and elderly cases that it sometimes leads to death from dehydration and insistent feeding. Especially if the elderly person is too sick too speak or is unable to ask for water.

This is why it is even more important to emphasise the importance of real HYGIENE and paying attention to detail. Hands must be washed often, communal surfaces must be disinfected several time a day. If traveling on public transport carry hand sanitisers always. At no time be careless.

In my clinic I use an oregano spray which is effective, smells great and kills germs naturally, without making you feel sick like many artificial anti viral sprays available. I will not start work before thoroughly cleansing every possible surface in my working area.

As there is no treatment for this virus it’s best to rest, and drink lots of water, but also take a high level probiotics and if necessary electrolytes over the first couple of days of recovery.

You will likely not be interested in much food for a few days as it has an almost instant affect on one’s appetite. Plenty of Water, Vegetable or home made chicken soup are a must to assist with recovery from this Virus.

The Nora Virus symptoms generally persists from anywhere  between 24 to 96 hours but I have seen cases where it has taken a week or longer to begin recovery.

A lot of people are not aware that they have the virus as symptoms creep up and are similar to food poisoning. In my clinic I have seen so many people who have suffered from this virus in the last 3- 4 months and particularly around Christmas time. Most thought it was simply caused by overeating or food poisoning.

I have come to name these colonics the ‘Noro-Virus colonic’ because they are quite different from the results I normally achieve. It appears that some viral residues remain in the ascending colon of recently infected persons and therefore the gas levels in these infected patients are higher than normal.

I found that with a particular combination of herbs used during these colonic sessions, the symptoms of lingering fatigue and feeling nauseous soon abate. People start feeling better once we begin to clear these residual viral matters.

We must always strive to strengthen and protect our immune system; it is an on-going process which must never be taken for granted, for without cause there is no effect.
