Symptoms of life that enemas relieve

Many of us, perhaps most, are over 50 here at Zity.biz. Although I feel quite a bit younger than my 56 years I am starting to feel it sometimes. Having taken some time away from regular "filling" enemas I am noticing now that I am back on a semi regular schedule I feel better afterwards. When I was younger I did it strictly for the erotic nature of the process. To prepare to dress up and enjoy some solo anal play. I didn't pay much attention to how I felt after except I usually felt relaxed and tired the rest of the day. Now I actually feel energized and have been doing it before work. I thought it might be cool if those who feel relief from symptoms might briefly list them here and maybe through the process we can compile some data and come up with a list of positive "side effects" enemas produce for us. For me;

More energy

Increased appetite

Less mucous

Better circulation in my legs and feet

Feeling of well being

Better able to handle stress

Sleep better with more dreams

Diminished aches and pains

I'm sure there"s more. I'll add later if this thread gets going.

It sounds like the placebo effect really works and/or you have been reading too many colon irrigation advertizements.

Not necessarily 100% placebo. Enemas can relieve stress, and stress can do a number on your body.

I know with my issues there is often increased appetite after an enema, because the bowels are moving, and probably better sleep because it helps calm them down.

>colonic irrigation advertisements

Yeah his original list did read that way but some of these are partially true for me, especially with an actual colonic session. That, and the added pleasure of having the therapist insert the probe.

The big thing for me is enemas and colonics help me beat lethargy and a down mood. My trousers sometimes fit better after a good one too.

And like he says, also a good way to start the day, the best part of that being that you won't have to use a public stall (gross!) while away from home.

I find it useful when I have back pain. In some ways it relieves the pain and sometime was better than a pharmacy solution.

I have had enemas for back pain, at the doctors office. It was a successful treatment. Nurse did it in the doctor office .

About 250 of them for Migraine headaches, sometimes dramatic effect with relief. A lady at a farm I worked at did a lot them most of the time. Was a most painful 35 years !

Warm Baking soda series for my persistent IBS issues on a 10 day schedule. Self administration, earlier, or Health-aide that gives them now.

Placebo? I would dare to say "not so in my case", very beneficial, have never felt worse after treatment than before it .

I do enemas for erotic enjoyment but of course it is an enema and so enemas do affect your colon and BMs. Apart from the erotic/orgasmic release enemas provide me, I would say enemas seem to either have no affect on my BMs if I only do one 2 quart enema- I am still having regular BMs the next day. But if I do more extensive colon cleansing then yes I do have the feeling of being lighter or having a calmer quieter gut for 24 hours. I feel like extensive colon cleansing is like hitting the reset button.

As far as the psychological benefits go, I find all enemas to be soothing relaxing, which makes for a good start to the day. I can't say enemas alleviate any physical aches and pains, but I would not expect them to.

For me, the benefits of enemas are real and positive and I always look forward to my next enema.

Enemas give me relief from extreme sinus problems. I don't have a clue what the connection is. The only thing I can figure out is, maybe the sinus problems are cause by dehydration, and enemas help re-hydrate my system. I'm am absolutely sure there is a connection between the enemas and the help I get with the problem. Unfortunately the relief is short lived.

I'd love to get more information on the use of enemas for back pain. I'm pretty sure it's not supported by any good studies, but hey - I'm taking enemas anyway, they're fun, and if they can help some I'd probably be up to it (even if it's just placebo).

I always had terrible migraines when i was a kid. As my fetish developed and used enemas frequently, I realised that I haven't had a headache for months.I later read that it's good for migraine.

They give me a euphoric feeling and the big o when I include masturbation with my enema

I’m with @SwitchableSusie on this one. I think some people like to ‘justify’ their enemas by saying it does all these wonderful things. And the whole ‘detox’ and ‘liver clense’ is all BS IMO. If you like enemas, whether erotic or not, just admit you like them. They certainly can help constipation and gas/bloating or other digestive issues, but I think that’s their limit.

While i don’t believe their claims, I won’t complain about the alternative health people promoting them and keeping more stores open to buy equipment!

And if you enjoy sexual release when using enemas, or the ‘empty’ and ‘clean’ feelings afterward, then that is making you feel better, which is a health benefit.

It all comes down to whatever makes a person happy. And in the end, that's all that matters.

While a good cleaning out is good for my system, there is also an emotional cleansing that comes along with it.

I don't think there is any real therapeutic benefit from enemas - BUT, I enjoy taking them, enjoy the fullness, even the cramps and pressure to retain them. And I do feel relaxed, maybe euphoric, afterwards. I don't have a partner who enjoys their, so I occasionally see a colon therapist. It's stimulating to feel the fullness, pressure and release with someone helping you.

Asking what symptoms of life enemas relieve is like asking what symptoms of life having an orgasm relieves.

They both make you feel good, so they can mask the symptoms of whatever ails you.

Suzy, you are so 'dead nuts' ON it's scary. --I'm a fan anyway.

I believe I will defer to Tillie on this one. Well spoken young lady. The bottom line is, what ever makes you happy.

Enemas are only very occasionally needed. Most doctors almost never prescribe them and they are out of favor for hospital stays as well. In the old days you always got one before any surgery and before you got released. I managed to avoid one before and after a quad bypass because I only like giving.

My long time enemate would get cranky if she didn't get her enema with orgasm so she definitely needed it. When we weren't traveling we usually did at least one a week with me on the phone. It was nice for both of us. I miss that.

Nice to see people chime in on my post. Thank you. I am a firm believer that medical science is still in its very early stages. There is way more that we don't know about the human body than we do. We give doctors way more credit and much higher status than they deserve. Also the medical "industry" is full of schemers and scammers and is totally profit driven. That's not to say that the internet is not 10 times as bad. Full of self proclaimed experts and whackos who think they have all the answers. If I'm one of those than so be it. I only know what works for me and was curious what you all thought. Thanks again for your comments.

I think that there are no real therapeutic effects but only different sensations depending on how we place ourselves at that time and the equipment we use (bag or other, different types of nozzle) if there is someone who administers the enema or we do it alone. Of course, the pleasure you experience can condition us at least in part. I have never been able to go to public baths so since I was a kid, even if I had a stimulus at school, I would stay there until I got home even with strong cramps. I was a teenager when I discovered the enema, I did it often using a bag that was always in the bathroom, without nozzle, directly with the tube. Then the bag disappeared and I started to use the shower hose directly. When I went to live alone I bought a bag with nozzle standard and I realized that in addition to helping me to empty the colon I had always felt different sensations, very pleasant, but that were not obvious because of the rush with which I filled the colon with water , for fear of being discovered. I began to realize that the enema could also have a strong sexual component. For many years now I have been taking an enema in the morning before going to work and I find it extremely pleasant to leave the house "emptied"; I get up an hour earlier than necessary to make one or more enemas but if I'm in a hurry I'll mount a tube directly connected to the tap and use different types of nozzle depending on the feeling I want to try. I have several types that I built in my little DIY workshop. Then there are moments dedicated to pure pleasure and it is when I can reserve for me even more than one hour in the afternoon or evening. There was a period in which I had involved my wife (very interesting) but for some time she did not show much enthusiasm. I have built many different nozzles and each one gives me unique sensations, very different from each other, but I invented a system to give me an enema as if there were someone who administers it. This is the top. Sometimes I masturbate while I fill my colon, sometimes I use it to give me a good sexual charge and then have a very strong sexual relationship with my wife. Sometimes the water pressure combined with the rubbing on the prostate of some nozzle causes me a spontaneous ejaculation. They are always different sensations but always very pleasant, especially because they trigger my imagination. My dream is to fuck my wife while I take an enema, but with this new gadget I have built it is becoming an obsession :-D. I hope to find a way to convince her to try ... Ah, I forgot, about ten times I used my continuous washing system (similar to a hydrocolon therapy). Very interesting and above all very pleasant, but it takes a lot of time and it's been a few years since I've been able to use it even if I want to do it. Here, these are the reasons why I love the enemas, even if my dream would be to find a woman to exchange them because my wife does not seem to like to receive them and I do not like to ask :-), but I think that the pleasure that causes the sensation of the empty colon, but above all the sexual pleasure that can be felt with the imagination and the use of different nozzles, has an unparalleled "therapeutic" value.

I think it's all of the above. Enemas are good for relieving colonic distress, for keeping your insides clean and for just good health. However, they also just feel good for me at least. I get excited as the bag is filling, physically and sexually.

For me the whole experience just feels great, at least most of the time.

What else can you do, wearing nothing, enjoying interior warmth and helping stay healthy?

The only thing better than giving yourself an enema is giving one or receiving one from someone else.

They provide a pretty good cure for Optical Rectumitis

That occurs when the anal nerve gets crossed with the optical nerve and you get a shitty attitude on stuff in general

Very personal, of course, but I enjoy the "empty feeling" I get after a thorough enema or series. I "slow down" from time to time, and an enema or three will relieve that immediately.

Another area where it helps a great deal is intestinal gas--at least for me. I generally have few if any problems with gas if I do regular enemas. In some ways, that's not as much a relief for me as it is for those around me, but I benefit as well.

There are several other things, but I'm not sure if they are constipation related or related to other body reactions.

I don't get constipated, but I get "slow," and the feeling that my colon isn't emptying all the way is pretty unpleasant. It's like a roadblock in heavy traffic...

I've also spoken before about the rectal massage of the hot water on the prostate, which actually seems better than self-massage. I think it's both the pressure on the rectum massaging the prostate, and the water temp (I like VERY warm water). That's as therapeutic for me as it is pleasurable.

Let's be honest, to make, take, and expel a good enema takes time. Rushed enemas just are not as effective, at least to me. A good enema takes about an hour from the time I get our the bag until I finish expelling it, and that is one hour that is time I get to enjoy in private away from the many distractions that come our way daily. Enema time is quite frankly my time.

Emom is absolutely correct. My hour in the morning, when my beautiful wife is still asleep, is my "me time". I can relax, cleanse myself and set myself up for the day. It is soooo good!

In my experience, the most effective, enjoyable enemas are taken (or given) slowly and gently. When you're giving, I think it's important (and comforting) to talk to the person who's receiving, coaching him or her and giving encouragement. As a woman, it takes more time for our senses to be awakened. It's not a sprint. Give yourself permission to slow down. If you're stressed or not feeling well, think of an enema as an oasis in your day when you can close out the world. Chances are, you'll feel better afterwards, physically and emotionally.

It's also a great way to take a break from an ocular-based rectal exam using full cranial insertion.

For me it just changes your daily focus. From paying bills cleaning the house going to work etc. now I’m focusing on taking as much as I can at once or focusing on the warmth I get or the cold I get in the But after a few seconds of taking it. Also the feeling of expelling it. I think it feels good when the water flows over down your cheeks into the toilet. Whether it’s a cold warm or hot enema. It’s the sensations from it and also the big thing controlling your self from touching your self cause it feels so good until you hit that one mark to we’re you can’t take it no more and you need to orgasum. Like I said to it’s its a change of focus I enjoy so much
