My Experience at Raaul’s by Mo Abudu

Celebrities, nobility, models and business people are doing it! Colonic Hydrotherapy is back and enjoys great popularity. On writing about such a delicate issue I did not want to recommend something that I had not experienced firsthand, so I decided to join the Detox Programme carried out by Raaul Cohen, a specialist for medically controlled detoxification who has his local clinic in the Iberostar Suites Hotel Jardin del Sol in Santa Ponsa.

Several of us from different parts of the world were on this particular programme and we were all a little nervous at the beginning, but there was no turning back now! On our first evening we received all the information about the programme for the forthcoming days and how to achieve optimum results and the necessity to concentrate on body, soul and spirit. We then sat drinking pure vegetable broth and toasting ourselves with glasses of distilled water.

Over the next seven days our activities began at 7.00am in the morning with a dry brush massage followed by hot and cold showers to stimulate the circulation. Each day continued with freshly squeezed organic fruit juices, after which then came daily exercise, either power walking, stretching and Pilates with Thomas from Via Vitale, Qi Gong carried out by Brigitte Rosinski and Yoga with Jaja.

During each day at regular intervals there were organic vegetable juices, vitamin supplements and cleansing drinks (powders which are drawing formulas to help flush the toxins from the body) and also a daily colonic session with Raaul for a complete bowel cleansing. Every day ended with a delicious hot consommé at 21.30 hrs.

During the week the programme includes a reflexology session and four massages in the hotel spa.

One evening at the beginning of the programme, Raaul gave us a talk on nutrition and healthy eating and what is most important to include in our daily diets.

As the week continued we felt increasingly better and not at all hungry! We felt satisfied, and did not think about wanting to eat solid food. People commented on how good we looked, which particularly was reflected in our gleaming eyes, translucent skin and we had lost weight!!

Our bodies were almost without cellulite, we felt light, beautiful energetic and excessively proud of ourselves. After nine days we had made it!

The last programme I joined recently Raaul had incorporated a new product into the programme. It is a wonderful drink called Mona Vie which contains the Açai berry from Brazil and is full of antioxidants, as well as other delicious fruits and is a very pleasant tasting drink, and an added treat to the detox programme!

After reading in depth on the subject of the Açai fruit and the benefits and having tried it myself, I can say I felt the benefits soon after having started taking the drink. It helps to lose weight faster, and I felt stronger, revitalised and full of energy and can only say that I experienced positive results from the Açai berry drink.

I am definitely recommending the Mona Vie Açai berry drink on a daily basis, especially the Active range, (this contains Glucosamine which plays an important part in alleviating arthritic pain, effectively restoring flexibility and protects joints and bones).

Maintenance is important following the programme to continue the wellbeing of your body and you will carry on feeling wonderful!

Needless to say, since my first programme I have returned time and time again and will continue to do so!
