Authentix Beauty and Wellness Clinic

Authentix Beauty and Wellness Clinic is a multi-service wellness venue in Braddon, Canberra, combining colon hydrotherapy, infrared sauna sessions, beauty therapy and selected clinical treatments. The clinic introduced closed-system colon hydrotherapy to Canberra in 2014, and describes it as its founding and most-requested service. Sessions generally run for 45–60 minutes and include an abdominal massage, electrolytes and a dairy-free probiotic. Clients can also add a coffee or probiotic implant, or pair a colonic with time in the infrared sauna.

The broader treatment menu covers private male and female waxing, lash lifts and extensions, brow services, medical-grade microneedling, intimate-area skin lightening and cosmetic tattooing for brows, lips and eyeliner. The clinic also offers IV vitamin drips and injectable consultations. Advanced injectable treatments and IV drips are carried out by a registered nurse, with suitability assessed as part of the consultation process. Authentix positions its beauty services around individual goals, with recommendations and treatment plans tailored to each client rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

The setting is designed for individual appointments, with private treatment rooms and a private far-infrared cabin. The clinic says appointments are scheduled to allow time for consultations and care, whether it is a client’s first visit or a return booking. New clients who are unsure where to begin can book a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation, which may be useful for choosing between the clinic’s wellness, beauty and skin-focused services. Colon hydrotherapy, sauna treatments and other wellness offerings are complementary services, and the clinic advises consulting a GP or treating health professional first if you have an underlying health condition.

Authentix was established by Shahnee, who has more than 20 years of experience in the beauty and wellness industry and trained in closed-system colon hydrotherapy with practitioners in Australia and overseas. Alongside the clinic, the business operates the Authentix Retreat Colonic Training Institute of Australia, offering residential practitioner training on the outskirts of Canberra. With a 4.9 Google rating from 97 reviews, Authentix is best suited to solo clients seeking a private appointment, whether they are visiting for a regular beauty treatment, exploring infrared sauna therapy or looking for an introductory consultation. The clinic is located at 103a / 27 Lonsdale Street, Braddon.
