Should I try a colon tube with my Colon Hydrotherapist?

Hello,

I thought this might start an interesting discussion:

I tried a colon tube many years ago but I think it was too thin, and/or I did not know what I was doing. Not relaxed, etc. Since it wasn't something that really fantasized about, I tossed it and moved on. In the meantime, I've read about them on Zity, including a great guide posted by SwitchableSusie. It seems the reviews and advice are mixed. Some love colon tubes, others avoid them due to the risk of puncturing the intestine.

My Colon Hydrotherapist has recently offered to use one on me, but she has limited experience. She has another client that has her use one for their coffee enemas during their appointments. I did buy a half inch colon tube when I was ordering some other things recently.

I'm not sure about the risks vs trying something new. "Why is >eneman10< in the hospital?" would be a embarrassing question to answer, lol!

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks, eneman10

I’ve used colon tubes with some of my enemates and they love them - especially for their coffee enemas because I can get the coffee so much higher up into the colon and holding the coffee for 30 minutes or longer is so much easier.

My advice is to go slowly and gently and let a slow flow of coffee run as you work the colon tube in and out a little deeper each time.

Obviously it’s best to clean the colon with a series of soapy and rinse enemas before using the colon tube for the coffee enema.

And I would love for my hydrotherapist to use a deep colon tube for my colonic. 😉

Thanks for the advice Real Screamer. We always start with a colonic, so I will be cleaned out before starting the series of enemas. I think I'm going to give the colon tube a try, but I will have a backup nozzle ready if the colon tube doesn't feel comfortable. It's easier having something to "hold onto" while I'm holding the coffee enema.

The colon tube is definitely worth trying!

The best way to insert it, at least in my opinion, is using inline pump for forcing solution in front of tube as a lube. With a little help of rotational movement it works perfectly well all the time.

@eneman10 - I've been using a colon tube occasionally for several years without any problems. It's a silicone 36 inch 34 FR (just slightly smaller diameter than 1/2 in - .44 inches if my conversion is correct). As I said, I've have not had any problems when playing solo and have had the little rascal used on me by an e-nurse on a couple occasions - she had the thing up my butt completely in less than 2 minutes! I find it best to take one or two small enemas first just to clear out your lower bowel...makes inserting the tube less cumbersome. Using a small amount/flow of solution as you are inserting definitely makes things easier, too, as it breaks up any fecal matter that is left in your colon. The higher up you go the greater quantity of solution you can take and it definitely works well with a carefully measured and crafted wine injection!! As R J LLex mentioned, taking your time and rotating the tube when you run into any obstruction facilitates the process too. Go slow and back off if you run into any resistance that does not clear quickly and easily.

Good luck and enjoy. Now go hang a bag!!

I think you'd need to push really hard to puncture a colon with a rubber colon tube, so this is one of those things that's probably just getting blown out of proportion by people who have never actually tried colon tubes. If your colon hydrotherapist suggested it, then go for it! And share your experience after the fact too.

There used to be a guy on here that punctured his colon with a colon tube. I don't remember his name but I remember the story. He had used it before and it was just a normal insertion until he started bleeding. He went to the hospital and they told him if he had not come when he did, that he would have died. So be careful when using colon tubes.

I read the account of his problem a few years ago so my details may not be totally correct.
