I have been going to see Julia at West London Colonics since July 2013 for monthly colonic treatments. I find Julia to be incredibly friendly, discreet and professional and she has a very reassuring approach to the treatment, which puts you instantly at ease. Julia is also caring and offers an efficient and friendly service.
I am a definitely colonic advocate and the psychological effect of seeing the elimination of potentially years of waste and possible life threatening toxins leaving my body in itself told me this should become part of a regime for me, for future prevention if nothing else.
Julia has recently introduced coffee enemas (in tandem with colonic irrigation) to me, and the toxin and waste release has been immense to say the least. The process itself leaves you feeling invigorated, refreshed and ready to face the world. Ridding the colon of waste and toxins this way releases layers of colon build-up which in turn, leads to feelings of lightness, strength and an overall feeling of good health. I would highly recommend a coffee enema and a visit to see Julia at West London Colonics.

After an extensive research on the best option to get healthier and perhaps to clean the colon before starting a diet program I decided to give a tried to the colonic therapy and so I found few good reviews from wahanda on West London Colonic; I soon bought a voucher that I saw for £50 because I wanted to try out this clinic, I booked in online for the next day and it gave me the options for my best suitable time so I choose my lunch Break. Later on I received a call from Julia, Very friendly and warm person, she requested a change on the time of my appointment, as she said she was very busy so I agreed to change for a latest time, anyway on the phone Julian offer for a massage which it will cost £15 extra, She was very kind, before she phones me she emailed me with some details of the treatment which was very nice of her.
However Julia also asked me to print out the form attached to the email because as she said she was very busy on that day that day it will be easier for her if I got all the details fill out and printed before arriving, I just thought that was a bit unusual for a clinic and If I got to fill the form there she will have to rush me.
It was raining the whole week so on the next day on my way to the clinic I could not find an internet coffee, I'm no driving so it was a bit of a night mare to find the place, there is no visible sign and it is a long walk from the mail road, If you are driving you sure be ok as the Sat Nav should guide you, I walked for 15 min and almost got lost as the location is a bit confusing and there is not sign of the clinic when I reached the end of the road I realised that there is no where to go, so the last house I tried as asked and there was Julia in the garden, ( as the clinic is in the back of the house).
Julia received with a nice smile, but suggested me to sit down in a wet wood bench outside while she went into the house to collect something. As there is nowhere else to sat and wait, I just stayed there in the cold and the rain.
Once Julia inside the actual clinic, I can tell that the place was very nice and clean a bit small but you cant complain. after completing the form, she spoke of the benefit of having a quick massage done £15 extra before treatment and also she offer to add some herbs to the water which it will cost £20 extra, and she also spoke of the benefit of the probiotics table ( I don't remember the price) to this point I thought before having the actual treatment, I would of spend on overall £100 and I wasn't prepared for it just then. If you can afford it go for it.
The treatment was pleasant, I can tell she is a professional , She knows what she is doing. it lasted 45 min with treatment time and the questioner. Once it was finished she gave me 2 probiotic pills, very nice of her, then she suggested to have this treatment done monthly for 6 month and after that once every 3 month, . I am not too keen on having a colonic irrigation monthly and I would not like to completely disable my body from doing its own detox. but that is up to anyone if they like or can afford it.
overall I give a 3 to 4

Julia is a polite and knowledgeable professional who put me at my ease. I was thoroughly satisfied with the treatment I received, which I thought was excellent value for money. Elena

I have had several sessions at West London Colonics and I am really satisfied with the treatment and the overall experience.
First of all, I'd like to vouch for the courtesy and professionalism of Julia.
The first time she explained to me the benefits of the treatment as well as how the procedure works in great detail. Her friendliness and good manners made me feel at ease. The thorough explanation of the treatment and the way she answered my questions gave me the reassurance she knew what she was doing. At no point have I felt uncomfortable or embarrassed.
As for the procedure, I think it's helped me "wake up" my digestive system and cleanse my body (I had recently finished a long course of antibiotics and therefore had colonics)
I would recommend it.

I have waited a little while before writing this review because I wanted to make it fairly detailed.
I personally found that the more detailed reviewers gave me the most useful insight- perhaps because I am a rather detail-oriented person!
I am also the person who asked the question about low- priced colonics treatment, which the Wahanda community were generous in responding to.
All the responses were helpful, but West London Colonics Julia seemed to go the extra mile. I spoke to her on the phone (this is one of the things she suggested a newbie to colonics should do!), and also checked out her Wahanda profile, which incidentally wasn’t so easy to do with some of the other clinics I looked at).
The WLC Wahanda page was informative and gave me links to satisfy my desire for more information.
After talking to Julia, I was satisfied that she was the right person for me to have my first colonic with.
She suggested I book a little extra time (over and above the standard 60 minute treatment time), picking up that I didn’t want this first treatment to be rushed, and although I had wanted a low price colonic initially, I realised that she was talking good sense.
And in any case, WLCs pricing both for initial treatments, and ongoing treatments (what Julia calls a ‘series’) are very good compared to other London clinics.
So what was the structure of the treatment?
• The consultation (using a health questionnaire which was focused and well thought through, I didn’t feel rushed through it, but neither was it a drawn out affair. Julia was careful too check for contra indications to treatment.)
• A pre colonic abdominal massage – to release the colon muscles. (Julia explained the colon hold a lot of the stress response of the body)
• Then the colonic itself
• Then the retention implant (I had the probiotic implant, but she explained there are other possible substances too, ranging from coffee (!) to flaxseed tea.
• Then the after care session when Julia explained the do’s/ don’t’s for the next few days after the colonic
The treatment itself is strange at first, but I got used to it a lot quicker than I expected. Julia is very good a making you feel at ease; it helped that I felt I knew her from the telephone conversation and e-mail communication before the session. I felt I was in very competent and experienced hand, and there was no need for me to feel concerned about anything. I could feel my abdomen relaxing deeply with the pre-colonic massage, and that relaxation (plus drinking plenty of water for a few days before the colonic) made the colonic itself a fairly comfortable experience. In a strange way, I found the process itself made me feel connected with my body rather than thinking of it as alien territory. It was satisfying to sense how the water and the herbs in it were stimulating natural responses, almost like waking up a lazy, dormant part of me. Again, Julia was good with her explanations. She told me that reconnection with ones body was one the unsung benefits of colonics. She said people began to trust their bodies more, after having a few colonics, particularly people with IBS and the like. That’s not to say that there was not some temporary discomfort. I did get some hot flushes on the right side of the body (the liver flushing, said Julia), some cramp like stomach pains, also unexpected emotional feeling coming up. Julia was patient and empathetic throughout, justifying the label of ‘colon whisperer’, which she says one client conferred on her. (Which others have picked up on; me too, I think)
Julia explained also that it can take 24 to 72 hours after treatment for bowel activity to return to normal; and there would probably be a small but distinct improvement in the quality of bowel movements. Lighter and easier. For me it was 24 hours.
And for sure, I definitely saw a difference along the lines that she mentioned. Fresher, lighter and with renewed zest for life even as winter draws in on us.
Julia suggested I give myself a little time to rest and really benefit from the treatment – not to rush into the hurly- burly of every day life.
In fact, I was struck by how much emphasis she put into the pre- treatment preparation and post-treatment consolidation stages.
She keeps emphasizing that colonics are a support to a healthy lifestyle, not an excuse for having an unhealthy lifestyle.
This could be irritating to those who hope that colonics are a magic pill, but I found it helped me focus on my role in the process of re-engaging with health.
So what next for me? I have booked a series of colonics, a nicely priced package of 5 treatments (with the 5th treatment being free) plus a complimentary probiotic implant thrown in. Having enjoyed the pre-colonic massage and the post-colonic implants, I will pay a little more and definitely take them up for some, (may be all), of my forthcoming sessions.
Oh, just a last point, if you do go to Julia, be aware that she is a lady who appreciates being given feedback; she asks for it post session, and she is keen for her clients to write their reviews on WLC s business page on Wahanda.
She told me she now requests every client to comment on their experience, whether they are a single-session client or someone who elects (like me), to do a series. Her point of view is that a spectrum of experiences help the prospective client get the users perspective. A refreshing attitude, I thought. She says also that it’s the only way for her to check out that her view of the session matches that of the client!
Of course, Julia ruefully comments that people being as busy as they are, and colonics being the kind of treatment that they are, fewer people post reviews than do for standard beauty related treatments. (All I can say is Thank god for being able to post reviews under the anonymity of a user name. It may take me some time to come out of the closet on this one.)
