Symptoms of life that enemas relieve

A humorous tongue-in-cheek entry I made under a similar topic 7 years ago:

@jonormal Who's tongue and in who’s and which cheeks???

For. Me enemas help me relieve pain in my back they also help with restless leg syndrome I take an enema about a hour before I go to bed seems to help me

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.

I think an hour is about the right time frame to do a good clean out. Anything less and you are rushed. Nice and easy and don't force it. If you feel full, expel it and do another.

Interesting. Don't know about right before bed, I get up often enough as it is to go pee. The back pain bit is very interesting - is that back pain in your back or is that the back pain where it refers out along the nerves to other parts? Can't say that I've noticed a difference with that last type, but maybe I'm doing it wrong.

In my experience, the most effective, enjoyable enemas are taken (or given) slowly and gently. . . It's not a sprint. Give yourself permission to slow down. . . think of an enema as an oasis in your day when you can close out the world. . .

Wise words earlier from Vicki V (see full text dated 2018.09.29 15:49)! Much of life can end up being rushing through things far to fast with little time to savor the experience. A not so long ago health scare (I'm doing fine now) forced me to slow down in life and I found myself learning/being reminded of really important life lessons (which I probably should have learned a long time ago!) so I work less, hurry less, live a bit more simply now and take walks where I observe/remember lovely things in life. Enema time too gives me a "pull out of the fast lane" time and I have no regrets - otherwise, why bother with the enema at all?

Over the years as a copywriter for a regional ad agency, sometimes the stress and pressure of the job was nearly unbearable. Clients who seemed to operate on subjective judgement rather than objective judgement, unreal deadlines, and the daily grind oftentimes had me seeking relief and a way to unwind. Early in my career, I discovered how a nice warm enema or two, managed to provide that needed stress relief that I so desperately craved. So instead of heading to the neighborhood bar after work, I would sometimes head home to the solitude of my apartment for a nice sensuous enema.

Now, 30 years into my career and working as a freelance writer, I still enjoy those retreats into my world of enema bliss when the world gets a little too demanding!

Have fun and play safe!

Once a woman sheds any fears or hangups and experiences for herself the physical and emotional benefits and sensations of a good internal cleanse, she will discover a new friend in her enema bag. For those times when she feels the need to get away from the pressures of life, a warm water enema has a way of relaxing and refreshing body and mind.

Or a man. It would be less than truthful to deny the erotic side of an enema, however the other benefits are great. I have no health issues , but feel like a new person after 2 or 3 nice warm enemas. It really helps me relax and unwind.

It never ceases to amaze me how a simple enema is so relaxing , so energizing. One of life's simple pleasures most will never know or understand.

I'm with @Likesenemas and @Vicki_V I think. There's no better mindfulness exercise than getting an enema - a good enema simply leaves nothing else to focus on but your own body!

The most important symptom I get is constipation (I suffer from IBS-C) and that is when enemas are the ultimate relief for me. Of course other things like feeling relaxed and less anxiety over it are wonderful too. But that instant relief of pressure, when the Satan stool is gone after evacuation, is so damn good!

I would have to say, constipation, stress and gas are the are the three symptoms that I am looking to get relief from. I can not ignore the general feeling of well being that I get from a series of enemas. So when life is getting me down a good clean out will generally fix me up.

I find enemas are excellent to send hangovers and putative colds/flus packing. Colonic irrigation is in an entirely different league, it makes me feel exhilarated and very detoxified/calm. Scheduling a combo of enemas and CI latet this week as I have my own systems,

Best wishes to all for placid posteriors.

I like a large volume soapy enema with a colon tube. After finishing the bag and expelling it, I take another large volume clear one with no soap to wash out. Squeaky clean!!!

In regards to responding to this I certainly agree that first & foremost, an enema should never be rushed whatsoever! The preparation should be done diligently and making sure the solution is the correct mixture and the right temperature. The recipient should clearly be put at ease and whatever position they are going to be in while being given their enema make sure they are as comfortable as possible. Gently lubricate them and slowly insert the nozzle with due care for their comfort. Openly discuss and chat with the recipient and massage their lower back & buttocks. Between relieving themselves be patient and allow them their privacy if that is their preference. Once a person has been given a thorough cleansing/ enema there are several benefits they will recognize & feel. Overall they will simply "feel better" and if the enema was given with their comfort in mind "life stops" for the recipient and the giver! A sense of being refreshed and "cleansed" are frequent feelings but more importantly a closeness now exists between them and a bond that is difficult to describe. In essence a friendship between two "enemates" is unique in every way and manner.

Just a brief added thought. One of the benefits I love about an enema is that my body and mind can be totally immersed in the experience. It's like I've blocked out everything except what I'm feeling at that moment. Honestly, how could I be thinking of anything else when my husband is lightly massaging me and coaching me to deep breathe through the cramps? Love it! I know it sounds corny, but an enema can be a catharsis of the mind as well.

I used to get tension headaches. They would get so bad I just wanted to curl up and go to sleep. Usually that was not possible, but a hot bath followed by masturbation always stopped the tension headache. I never got the chance to take an enema and masturbate, when I had a tension headache but I feel sure it would end the headache, too. When the headache ends, you get a euphoric feeling as the tension drains away. Short of being able to do either of those I had to resort to taking the medicine the doctor prescribed. The pills did end the headache, after 2 to 4 pills.

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."

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.

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.

and Susie noted that there may be a strong placebo effect with enemas as well.

I largely agree with all our co-contributors above. For both societal as well as financial reasons, It's very unlikely any scientifically valid substantive research will emerge any time soon about enemas curing or aiding most any condition. If done conscientiously, enemas bear very little risk to you, so if you enjoy enemas or in your specific case you feel they benefit your own medical condition, you should indulge in them. Assuming, like myself, that you also enjoy them for reasons sexual or otherwise, just admit it and be pleased you were truthful to yourself and move on. And thanks to many of our members who truthfully and realistically provided their viewpoints here.

I do think a good clean out is healthy, at least it sure feels healthy when I'm nice and empty feeling. I know at least for me an enema always changes my mood for the better.

I like to be given an enema early in the morning than jump in the shower and come out and put on clean clothes and feel clean and empty and light. Greatest way to start the day.

EVERY time I see this thread I start mentally listing off "symptoms of life" such as:

breathing

heartbeat

consciousness...

And thinking that I'm not sure if I want them "relieved" quite yet, even if it is by a really good enema.

I just seem to have a sense of well being and more energy after a few good enemas.

There have been times they have done a lot to help a sore lower back. I don't always act my age 😢 I'm 60 plus but still lift some pretty heavy weights given my age and size. Aw........... the delicate male ego, a whole other subject.

For my sub enemas can reduce his stress, helps him to relax. We don't even have to include sex, though adding sex can increase the benefits 😉 .

I just happened to visit this previous thread and the thoughtful messages shared -- and how we never dreamed in 2019 how stressful our lives would become wrestling with the impact of COVID-19 and other upheavals in the past couple of years.

My family had some very stressful times when I was feeling overwhelmed physically and emotionally. There are many ways I've weathered the storm, most notably the unending love and support of my family (and our pets!), but there were times when I just needed some "me-time." I still think back years ago of a wonderful nurse who cared for me and joked, "Ladies should have an enema bag and know how to use it."

I join you, Vicki V.

That enemas relieve the Symptoms of Life, I have no doubt. But when you don't need any symptoms relieved, just take an enema, or better yet have someone give you an enema, just for the fun and enjoyment of it. To me, enemas feel good, both going in and coming out, and they are just fun. When taking an enema, it is just all about you and the outside world doesn't exist for a little while.

What the hell is a “Symptom of Life”. Breathing, heartbeat are symptoms of life. I don’t rely on enemas for that! Fun, sex, access to a woman’s Fanny…great exposures, play, avenue to anal pleasure. Agree with Susie, treating “symptoms of life” with enemas is a naturopaths bread and butter.

Highndry has it right as an enema can be more beneficial by doing it alone. Do these all the time as I work sometimes 60 hrs a week.

As is so often the case VickyV has it right. "

The “Symptoms of Life” are obvious to older folk.

Feeling full and bloated, and just realized that I haven't gone in three days. So, by a little after 3 P.M CST today. I'm going to give myself a couple of quarts of warm enema. Probably would do it more often, but seems such a hassle to drag everything out, and fill and hang it. I DO like the result, though, of being emptied.
