About Colonics & Lymphatic Detox Center in Lauderhill, FL

Licensed Detoxification Services in Fort Lauderdale's Wellness Community

Colonics & Lymphatic Detox Center is a licensed detoxification studio serving Lauderhill and the greater Fort Lauderdale area. Founded by Ellie De LaCruz, a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) in Florida who pursued specialized training in colon hydrotherapy and lymphatic drainage, the center offers comprehensive detox services grounded in professional credentials and client-centered healing.

When you book a session, you're working directly with a practitioner who holds dual licensure in both massage therapy and colon hydrotherapy. Florida law requires massage therapy licensure before advancing into colon hydrotherapy, which establishes a foundation in anatomy, physiology, and therapeutic touch before specializing in internal cleansing techniques. Ellie completed the required education and examinations to achieve certification through I-ACT (International Association for Colon Hydrotherapy), ensuring that every colonic session meets professional standards for safety and effectiveness.


Beyond colon hydrotherapy, the center integrates lymphatic detoxification as a complementary approach to whole-body cleansing. Ellie earned a Certificate of Special Training from the Academy of Lymphatic Studies, which equipped her with advanced skills in Manual Lymphatic Drainage. She combines these traditional hands-on techniques with modern technology, using the XP2 lymphatic drainage machine to enhance circulation, reduce fluid retention, and support the body's natural detoxification pathways.


This integration of massage therapy, colon hydrotherapy, and lymphatic drainage allows for a comprehensive detox experience. Rather than addressing only one system, you receive treatments designed to work together—clearing the colon, activating lymphatic flow, and supporting tissue recovery through therapeutic touch.

Professional Training That Supports Safe, Effective Detoxification

Ellie founded Colonics & Lymphatic Detox Center with a mission to empower clients with safe, effective treatments that restore balance and support long-term health. Every credential she holds was earned through structured education, hands-on training, and examination—not just certification courses, but licensure that meets Florida's regulatory requirements for therapeutic practice.



Her background as a Licensed Massage Therapist informs her approach to colon hydrotherapy and lymphatic drainage. Understanding how the body responds to touch, pressure, and release allows her to adapt each session to your comfort level and physiological response. You'll notice this in how she explains what's happening during the session, adjusts pressure or flow based on your feedback, and integrates relaxation techniques to help your body respond more effectively to the treatment.


The XP2 lymphatic drainage machine represents the modern technology component of her practice. After completing hands-on training in its use, Ellie incorporated it to maximize results for clients seeking advanced lymphatic support. The machine works alongside Manual Lymphatic Drainage techniques, giving you options for session customization based on whether you prefer entirely hands-on work or technology-assisted drainage.


South Florida's humid climate and warm temperatures affect how your lymphatic system functions—heat can contribute to fluid retention and sluggish circulation. The combination of colon hydrotherapy and lymphatic drainage addresses both internal cleansing and external fluid movement, which is particularly relevant in this climate zone..

What You Experience During Your Visit to the Center

Every session at the center is designed as a space for healing, release, and restoration. You're not moving through a rushed appointment—you're receiving individualized attention from a practitioner who understands both the technical requirements of detoxification and the importance of creating a comfortable, private environment. Ellie's client-centered approach means she'll explain the process before beginning, answer your questions throughout, and adjust the session based on what your body is telling her.
