We are recommending to use acidophilus, but for a different reason. Colon hydrotherapy treatment does not wash out flora.

One of the best methods is to place the flora rectally the evening following your last colon hydrotherapy session, other choice is to use acidophilus for 2 weeks following the last therapy session.
