Whats your favorite position for a colon tube?

I prefer on my back so l can watch if l have my choice. I have taken them in every position except standing on my head!!! My OM prefers on his back as well so l can play with him while inserting and filling. I have made a filling last almost an hour!! We have several sizes and lengths and l like our 36" silicone the best, easier to take, but when l want a really DEEP filling, we get out the 60 incher and go for the gusto!! I can really feel it deep and filing while traveling along. I can take all 4qts easily if it travels true without folding over. I can usually only take it after 2 other enemas to clear the way first. I tried a SN colon snake a couple brought over a while back, too much for me. Didnt care for it for it was too large and stiff creating a harder time to enjoy myself. Quite a filling l do have to say though!!

I have several colon tubes ranging in widths of about 1/3 inch to 1.25 inches in diameter. I always lay on my back to insert them. If I can navigate through the sigmoid bend, then I can actually see and feel the tube bulge as it runs up my descending colon. I have tried lying on my left side when I am having a hard time getting through the sigmoid bend thinking it will help the colon tube through, but that doesn't seem to help. So I have stuck with laying on my back as the preferred position for colon tube insertion.

With this being said, l wonder if lying on a pillow to elevate my hips would assist in this navigation. When l do my CTs on my own, l only insert about 12-18 inches or until l fell it is no longer going further and just make do. Still deeper and better than a tulip or flared tip nozzle. Not as well as our SN single balloon nozzle, MY FAVORITE!!, but it works.

I can insert them from any position. It is usually easier to insert each of my tubes (1.0 inches and 1.66 inches) when I'm on my back, but I can get them through either on my back or in the ass up position. I've even taken them in standing or on my knees. It all depends upon what I'm doing. If I'm taking photos or videoing for sharing (or not), I'm usually in the knee/chest ass up position. It's the sense of that last section sliding deep in and the retention ball locking into place that is the best part of the insertion. Of course the next part, the filling from deep inside that is the desired effect. And my highest volumes have generally been taken with long colon tubes inserted.

I need to figure mine out. Haven't gotten it in much further than 19", which is still in my sigmoid. Guess it's just practice.

Wish there was a video up somewhere giving a walk-and-talk-through and tips.

When I use my colon tube, I prefer lying on my back with legs over tub. Just seems to slide in easier and when it's fully in, feels great and gives me one free hand for playtime. 😜

Moliere, I think if you are 19 inches deep, then you may have made it past your sigmoid. If you look at diagrams of the colon, the sigmoid would be less than 19 inches deep- granted everybody is built differently so it's hard to pin down an actual length to the sigmoid bend for any given individual. If you haven't successfully made it through your sigmoid, your tube may be hitting the colon wall and doubling back- I have had this happen on numerous occasions. If the tube hasn't doubled back and you are a full 19 inches in, you may be hitting poop further up in your colon preventing further advancement.

I have always achieved the best results for deep penetration with a colon tube after multiple enemas when you know you have removed all solids from your colon and you are getting a clear return or at least no more solid waste.

Give this a try and see if it helps.

I will give this a try. My idea that it was still in or near the sigmoid is based on feeling where the tip of the tube was, which appeared to be right at the bend where the sigmoid and the descending colon join.

I've found that most people -- myself included -- can just take more lying on their back with their knees bent. And, of course, not a bad view either.

I like to use a colon tube and the position I prefer in on her left side in Simms, and her holding her top cheek up so I can use both hands to slide in the tube. There needs to be gentle back and forth movement to put it in and when you get to a turn you will have resistance. Spinning the tube a little will get it around the corner. It makes for a comfortable enema and is fun sliding in and sliding out!

I prefer a rubber colon tube inserted lying on my right side up to the bend from the descending to the transverse colon. In this position, gravity will lead the water from the holes in the tip of the colon tube directly down to the ascending colon automatially

I would love to see a how-to video for colon tube use, with the giver talking about what they are noticing and doing. Might help with getting it in me.

I usually start on my left side right knee drawn up. Once I get the colon tube into my sigmoid I roll over onto my back and continue to insert the tube until its in as far as it can g. That's usually 4 to 5 feet depending how well I'm cleaned out beforehand.

Mostly on my back with legs pulled up, it's the easiest position to control the tube
