What do you think of icewater enemas?

I really do enjoy a nice comfortable warm enema so I'm not ready to try something that sounds less so I'll take a pass on this one. Thanks anyway.

Please stay as you are !! - that will be surtainly the right way !! - play safe and enjoy !!!

While certainly not claiming the slightest bit of medical knowledge about ice water enemas, I would think they would be likely result in an injury of some sort. I am not even curious enough to consider trying or in fact even read about what others have written. Denise

Many older texts recommend an enema of cool/cold water as a follow up to a large volume cleansing enema. This is said to restore bowel tone from the relaxation of a warm/hot enema. A smaller volume to be expelled was the suggestion.

I will occasionally run smaller cold water enemas through my bowel after a large cleansing or coffee enema. I expell these quickly and find they can trigger those final expulsions that might otherwise keep me close to the toilet.

I've never found them crampy, painful, or uncomfortable, especially with quick expulsion, but I don't add ice cubes!

IT is a "CHILLING" experience!

Let me think about this a bit. I did try it once. Cold water out of the refrigerator. We just filled the bag and left it in there overnight. It did not kill me but sure felt like it was going to. Expelling was very difficult it wanted to stay in. I have no explanation for that. It was a four-quarter like I usually take. I was quite uncomfortable with a fever and a case of the shakes after it. I am just guessing hypothermia. I do not intend to do it again or recommend anyone trying it. It was an idiotic thing to do.

I don't know about anyone else, but I get the shivers just from warm enemas. I don't know if it's cause I am naked or what but I always start shaking, I couldn't imagine doing an ice cold one. 🥶

A very long time ago, I got "treated" to cold tap water enemas on a few occasions....let's just say, it's not anything that I would care to repeat under any circumstances.....

I've had a few cold water enemas and I didn't like them. I would never take an ice cube enema.

Personally, I'm rather cool to them....

I've given and received cool/cold water enemas, but it sounds like ice water is colder than the temperature cool water equates to when coming out of the faucet. Cool/cold water enemas are indeed more challenging, which is what I like about them. However, going to the point of ice water seems like it could create problems.

Our grandmother was a retired RN, and she gave us enemas over a range of water temperatures. It all depended on the reason for the enemas. For example: If we were constipation the enema was warm. If we were sick with a fever the enema was on the cool side, but not cold. And finally, if she gave us a 3H enema, it was on the very warm side. Using a 24 inch open tip 30 French colon tube, inserted completely in our colon. I personally never saw her use a thermometer to check the water. I only saw her using her fingers. However, when she checked our body temperature before an enema, she used a rectal thermometer. And when our teenage aunts gave us enemas before our evening bath, they like grandma, used a rectal thermometer to first check our temperature.

I experienced one cool water enema and I don't wish to repeat the activity. I do enjoy an enema with warm enema solution.

The only ones I have been given have been done slowly when I wasn't feeling well. It brought down my fever which was nice but to keep cramping down it went so slowly it was miserable.

Brrrr

🥶🥶🥶

Useful for fever or in summer, but temperature not below 30°C

Personally,I love them

I have done a cold (right out of the fridge) club soda enema. Took about a third of a quart. Thought I was going to die! The cramps from the cold plus the gas from the club soda had me on the bed writhing...

I've taken a couple. A 2 quart bag filled with cold tap water then loaded up with ice cubes. Hard to take, yes most definitely, took a lot of stopping and starting.

This is something I only do on rare occasions, just like I do with M&M enemas. Only when I feel that I need to be punished.

I did some experimenting when I was much younger with different liquids and temperature. I tried a cold water, not what I would call ice water and found it unpleasant and unproductive. I think I tried cold maybe three times, and have zero interest in doing it again.

Before taking an ice water enema .. take about a quart of hot water.. and then while holding the hot water take a quart of ice water.. it should really feel good!

+1 for the hot/cold. I for sure prefer warm water, but I've tried hot then cold as punishment before and it's exhilarating. The cold spreads around in my belly and soon my feet curl with desperation.

Be careful about this procedure !! - it is very dangerous !!! - play safe and enjoy !!

Since I view the enema process as something sensuous and erotic, having an ice enema that leads to intense cramping does not fill the bill as something enjoyable for me.......

Had few in hospital as kid my temp waxwsy up.needed to cool dow0n fast

I did experiment with them. My first attempt with cold water (refrigerated water) as a first enema of a session was a failure. I cramped immediately and barely got anything in. In later attempts I started with my usual warm soapy water enema and once I was cleaned out take a small (a pint) cold water enema with me in a knee-chest position. I could feel the cold water wind its way through my now emptied colon up toward my belly button. I didn't try to hold it long, I'd get the chills and let it out.

That's one I'm not even going to try!!! And I've done well over 30 solutions over the years.

First of all there's a big difference between cool water and ice water.

As another poster said ( though they said cold ) cool water enemas were used to treat exceptionally high fevers.

Water below body temperature lowers the body core temperature, quickly. That's why they used the cool enemas.

But "ice water" ?? You're injecting hypothermia into your body.

Don't even think about it

Hard no!

Even the idea fills me with horrors. The only liquid I want ice cold is a nice beer (in a glass not an enema bag!) I'll take my enemas comfortably warm with just a touch of soap thank you.

As little as possible
