Sunshine Holistic Health:

Your NDIS Colonic Treatment Partner

A step-by-step guide to making the most of your self-managed NDIS plan when it comes to colonic irrigation treatments. From understanding the paperwork to liaising with your plan manager, this post will simplify the process, ensuring you get the care you deserve.

In the ever-evolving health and wellness landscape, there are always new frontiers to explore, and the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) isn’t staying behind. One of the most recent and exciting recognitions by the NDIS is the inclusion of colonic irrigation (colonics) treatments. If you’re considering this holistic health approach under your self-managed NDIS plan, here’s the lowdown on what you need to know.

What Are Colonic Treatments?

For the uninitiated, colonic treatments, also known as colon hydrotherapy or colonic irrigation, involve a gentle cleansing of the large intestine using warm water.

The primary aim is to remove waste and toxins, improving overall gut health and potentially providing relief from various digestive issues, including constipation.

NDIS Recognition: A Game-Changer

While the NDIS has recognized colonic treatments, there are certain criteria that participants need to meet:

  1. Evidence of Need:  Participants should have documentation or a recommendation from a healthcare professional indicating that the treatment is necessary due to an illness, injury, or side effects from medication.
  2. Self-managed Plans: As of now, colonic treatments are primarily available for those with self-managed plans, providing them with flexibility and autonomy over their treatment choices.

How to Get Your Treatment Covered

For those interested in availing colonic treatments under the NDIS:

  1. Consultation: Begin with a consultation with your healthcare provider or specialist to discuss if colonics would be beneficial for your specific health concerns.
  1. Documentation: Obtain necessary documentation or recommendations that highlight the need for the treatment.
  2. Liaise with Your Plan Manager: If you have a plan manager, discuss with them about incorporating colonic treatments into your plan. Alternatively, if you’re self-managing, you can directly approach registered providers.
