Essential Blu Wellness

This was my first time trying colon hydrotherapy. My boyfriend and I were on vacation in Los Angeles, and he convinced me to try it. The office was very close by. If it had been farther away, I probably would have chickened out. Luckily, it was right downtown which was very convenient. Also important to know is that an appointment is required. It’s not a storefront. It’s more like a private practice, and I was happy to know that strangers wouldn’t be walking in and out while I was having my session. When I called to schedule, I got to speak with the therapist. She was understanding and kindly answered all my questions. As soon as I walked in, I felt at ease. The office is very nice. The procedure was very gentle and relaxing. I felt great afterwards… light on my feet and full of energy. I’m a registered nurse and a healthcare executive. My standards are very high when it comes to these types of procedures. This place surpassed them all. It was a wonderful experience, nothing at all like I imagined. I only wish I could come back sooner. Now I can’t imagine going to any other place. The next time I’m in LA, I’m coming back here first before doing anything else.

Coming to Essential Blu was a bit scary for me I was in bad shape. My weight was at 275lbs and i was told by a doctor one day I was losing muscle mass and developing all sorts of illnesses I didn’t want. At only 39 years old I came around the middle of year 2013 with Alicia (The Licensed Colon Hydrotherapist) I gave her all my concerns and fears of my health issues. I became consistent with my sessions and I listened to her advice on how to get back to being the healthy woman that I am today. I’ve lost over 50 lbs with her help and most of all I have ENERGY and I’m looking 15 years younger than my age. My skin and body are loving the service and sessions. The environment here is very soothing and relaxing and most of all very comfortable. I usually park up the street in a safe garage. I referred family and friends to Essential Blu and they Love the service along with the licensed colon hydrotherapist. I highly recommend service here. I’ve had awesome massages and great sessions of colon hydrotherapy and I’ve also tried some extra services that are offered here which are very affordable. Thank God, High Five to this great location in uptown downtown in Los Angeles. So worth the money and the wonderful staff, I feel at home and that’s why I Love Essential Blu Thank you Alicia for helping me to heal this body, mind and soul.

Great service and extremely comfortable environment. I plan to keep coming here for some time!

I first came to Essential Blu around March of 2011. I was in a very interesting phase of my life. I had quit smoking cigarettes a couple of months prior and I started to become health conscious. I began gaining weight for the first time in my life. Not to mention I was craving sugar ALL THE TIME because I stopped drinking on top of it. I had also decided I wanted to experiment with being a vegan. In about 6 months time, I had gained 45 pounds! The more healthier I ate, I could feel myself becoming more aware and enlightened. However, I really had no knowledge about health and my body was telling me to go and seek guidance. When I met Alicia Larry she was assisting one of my favorite organic vegan places with a cleanse program. By the way, if you haven’t tried her cleanse program, I HIGHLY recommend it. It rocked my world and it’s just another one of the many wonderful things that she has to offer. She uses formulas from one of the greatest healing doctors in the world– Dr. Habib Sadeghi from BeHive of Healing.
Now I had absolutely no idea what a colonic/​hydrotherapy was at the time, but I knew that it had helped a couple of friends of mine with the overall vitality of their health, so I decided to give it a whirl.
Let me tell you lovely creatures of the planet, this is where I REALLY began down the road of the new and healthy Megan. I thought, «Oh! I’m going to become vegan and eat super healthy and that will be the solution!» Little did I know, we have years, and I mean YEARS, of waste and yucky build up in our colons (the place where all diseases feed off of. Not to mention, the number one cancer killer is of the colon and guess what people?! It’s 100% preventable.). If we don’t cleanse out the toxic buildup that we have accumulated since we were toddlers then how can anything begin to change? Even just after the first couple of sessions, I began to notice a healthier glow in my face, I had all of the energy I once longed for and soon enough jump started the shed of my excess weight. Believe it or not, I wasn’t even craving anything bad anymore! A lot of my health concerns just started to simply fade. Now that doesn’t mean «OH! Wow! I have cleaned all the old stuff out, so now I can get away with eating some more bad crap!» Noooope. You have to WANT it. You gotta do the work as well and MAINTAIN a healthier, balanced diet. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have your occasional treats. 80−20% ratio is what Alicia recommends. We are human and we have to listen to our bodies. I mean can you blame a girl for wanting some chocolate? ;) I mean, come on. IT’S LIFE! But this is definitely a lifestyle change. And man is it worth it! I look and feel like a kid again. This is why I choose to go back at least every couple months to get a good body rinse. That way I know I am not holding anything inside.
Essential Blu made the process so easy. Alicia makes you feel comfortable and calm and eases you through the entire process. Not to mention she’s does her own healing energy work on you while you lay on the table, and you don’t even realize she’s doing it! It is truly a magnificent experience. Better than any «therapy»…and you get the benefits inside and out!
If your colon hydrotherapy session isn’t anything other than Clean and Blissful then you have got the wrong place! I would highly recommend Essential Blu to anyone. Alicia has seriously helped change my life and assist me in my awakening process on this wonderful journey we call LIFE. I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL and I am so relieved with the results.

Where do I begin? Alicia is hands-​down the best colon hydrotherapist around. As a guy, I knew nothing about colon hydrotherapy and was a bit uncomfortable the first time I went, but she was totally understanding and put me at ease. Now when I go I just think about how great I’m going to feel.
Her massage technique is gentle yet firm; basically she does whatever needs to be done to get the junk out of your system. I always feel cleaner, lighter, and have a flatter stomach when I leave.
She’s located downtown at the Gas Company building. There’s metered parking for an hour; there’s also a couple of parking lots nearby for around 5 bucks. (Insider tip: the Ralphs on the corner has free 90 minute parking with purchase; just buy a bottle of water and get your ticket validated).
The loft building is nicely renovated plus they have security at the front so just tell them who you’re there to see. Her office space is decorated in a spa-​type vibe; candles, incense, soothing music. I’ve been to other places which are kind of rundown or clinical looking; this definitely feels like a higher-​end experience.
Like I said, I’ve been to other places, but none are as good as this one!
And if you have questions about colon hydrotherapy or health in general, she is a WEALTH of information.

Alicia is absolutely wonderful! She is extremely professional, caring, and gentle. And is TRULY concerned with your well being.
Colon Hydrotherapy can be daunting, but Alicia takes the time to walk you through the process and make sure you are comfortable (even for me and I have been doing this for years). I would never go anywhere else!
