Home Built Colonic Rig

This is the latest version of my colonic rig. All built with simple items from Home Depot or Lowes. I took these few photos to provide as much info as possible to those who might be interested in building something similar. Please let me know if you have questions. Of course the human interaction with a live therapist is missing but otherwise this can provide just as good of a colonic as a professional. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Pressure gauge on the machines related to the original "Toxygen model B" is 0-5 pounds, and normal filling pressure is under 2 psi.

There is a flow restriction valve in the model B that limits the flow, and if memory serves that's to limit flow to (not sure I'm remembering this correctly) 2 gpm. Also, the fill valve is a multi turn needle valve.

The model B also contains a thermostat valve similar to ones used in showers, that allow the temperature to be set 90-105 degrees. The valve keeps the temperature pretty constant regardless of flow, and if either hot or cold get cut off, the valve stops all water flow through the machine to prevent scalding ( or killing ) the client.

@ docinny45...

I'm at somewhat of a loss to your point but assume and appreciate that you are questioning the safety of this arrangement. Common sense and paying attention to obvious temperature and pressure limits are assumed. If you have never pressed your limits and know the sensations that those excesses produce, then please do not go beyond a 2qt. bag hung 2 feet above the body.

About safety: I also afraid of those direct connections with water supply. I have a manometer on my water pipe and there are at least 2 bars - near 30 psi, far more than the safe level.

My own solution - water pipe to the open reservoir which connected to the speculum. The resulting pressure will never exceed the height of that reservoir, so about one meter (3 feet) will be safe, excess water will just flow upon that reservoir. I am not a fan of colonics, but I tried it at home several times, so I use a combination of enema bag (as that reservoir) and shower hose in it. I suppose that your design may be quite easily adapted for that scheme if you want.

Another safety question: how do you clean that out hose?

Hi Alexa Tim,

I run the pressure very low. This is controlled first through the faucet volume but secondarily through the valve just before the hose. I have absolutely no concern about pressures. When the output valve is closed for a fill, I fill very slowly and always release well before my limits are reached. I clean the hoses first by flushing while connected then occasionally I will hang them in a U shape and fill with detergent and bleach. This would not be adequate for sharing but since this system is only for my own entertainment, it is adequate.

I don't fully understand this

YOU CANNOT RUN THE PRESSURE VERY LOW

The pressure is the pressure of the source.

You can ONLY adjust the flow rate.

A long time ago I posted a method to safely and effectively control and limit the pressure from a faucet water source.

I will search for that old post.

The search function does not appear to be working now.

I will look again later.

Here's a post I made in December 2014 explaining the difference between flow and pressure:

" OK ........ let's try and explain pressure vs. volume.

Take a balloon ....... or even a condom ........ and secure it to your nozzle on your sink.

Now let the water just trickle into the balloon. Eventually, it will burst ......... even though the water coming out wasn't very much volume at all. It was pressure that did the work (or damage) even though the flow was low. But the high pressure was persistent and eventually fatal to the balloon.

Also, let the water just trickle out of the faucet and try to stop it by covering it with your hand. Not so easy ...... is it?

I generally use a 4 quart bag with a large diameter hose and a check valve hung about 3 feet above me as I'm prone in bed. Initially, it pours in rapidly ........ but as it continues the water encounters a blockage and stops because there isn't very much pressure. Waiting patiently, it starts to flow again as the blockage surrenders. This may happen a few times. Usually, I don't finish the bag, but I do manage to at least take more than 3 quarts.

Take into consideration that although the height of the water was originally 3 feet above me, it is now somewhere just over 2 feet because of the emptying of the bag ......... and now the pressure is less than at the start of the enema. For my age, I consider this the safe way to take a large enema.

Does any of this make sense to you now?

Play safe!!!! "

OK, here is the solution for all you naysayers and pressure worriers for the shower shot type enemas.

People who needlessly worry about plumbing and water contamination still won't be satisfied.

You will need a little mechanical know-how.

The concept is to have a "pressure relief" for water if the pressure inside the colon gets too high.

You will need three hoses. Their lengths will vary depending on your needs.

The first hose #1 is connected to your shower head (or from a separate shower hose valve coming from your wall plumbing).

Let that hose from the shower head fall to the floor level in the tub or shower stall.

To that hose, connect a "Y" connector and leave it on the floor.

The second hose #2 is connected to the "Y" and the end of the hose is held up to whatever height you might hang your bag if you were standing in the shower 3-4-5 feet, whatever you like.

Unless you want to hold that hose, tie it to something. 😁 😁 😁 😁

The third hose #3 is also connected to the "Y" and goes to your nozzle, whatever you want to use.

Water should flow freely from the first hose #1 into the "Y" and then into hose #2 and hose #3 at the same time. That's how the pressure relief works.

Now you can set the water just about any way you want, and when the pressure inside your colon is higher than the pressure in the second hose, water will spray out the top of the second hose as a colonic pressure relief.

You can test how it works by holding your finger over the end of the tube that goes up your butt, when you do that, the water will come out the "relief hose" at a pressure determined by how high you hang the outlet/end of that hose.

There you go!

To clean hoses get a sectional .22 rifle rod or two or three. They screw together, but unless you modify in many cases the middle section is the only one you can have more than one of.

Water supply contamination via backflow is one of those things that people who are paid to worry come up with. There are a lot of "and ifs" that need to happen to have backflow contamination from your ass and not from anything else (such as a broken pipe)

Backflow can be prevented with a simple check valve in the hose near the nozzle.

Backflow can be prevented with a simple check valve in the hose near the nozzle.

This is purely an academic, hypothetical problem.

Nobody's colon is going to have enough back-pressure to force anything into the source plumbing which is usually between 40 and 70 PSI.

With your Y-connected rig, it is possible, though less likely. Depending on geometry (especially if a T fitting is [mis]used instead of a Y), bearing down may force some fluid out of the rectum and into the hose above the nozzle (if not all the way out the pressure relief port). Also, a [transient] venturi effect may be generated, sucking fluid from the nozzle end as well as the supply line into the relief hose.
