Colonic Hydrotherapy

I'm a female and I'm looking for a good source for information on colonics. I've never had one but I think I would love it! Is it possible to administer one to yourself? Do you absolutely need all of the expensive equipment? Any good websites that explain how to do one at home?

I'll appreciate any info! Thanks!

Years ago I did three colonics with a very attractive administrator. I soon developed a strange burning sensation in my lower abdomen which she couldn't explain. Her first suggestion was maybe I need more colonics. She may have been right, but the sensation was so discomforting that I was afraid to do anymore. It took several weeks for the sensation to disappear.

I've had a number of colonics in the last year or so. I"ve found a great therapist, and she is very sensitive to my needs (tho not erotic, of course); however, I still prefer the enema, despite the benefits of colonics.

Here are my reasons:

1. For me personally, a series of enemas actually empties me out better--but then I do four, increasing volume each time and fully expelling each time, until I truly reach capacity. When I do a colonic, my bowels are not as empty as when I do enemas this way.

2. The feelings. For some reason, the pressure and the feelings of the enema are much more intense than those of a colonic.

3. I find that the nozzle to which the colonic system is attached actually promotes a "less than full" state. The reason? With an enema, I can use various means to get the tube or nozzle up higher, past the top of the rectum. As those used to colon tubes know, the higher the injection site, the easier it is to take a larger volume of water.

Having said all that, I have a colonic scheduled for next Wednesday, and I'm looking forward to it with great anticipation.

Doc.

I am a newbie to the forum but a lifelong fan of enemas and colonics. My first colonic was via an old closed system "Hydrosan machine". The clinic was in an old house. The therapist an attractive brunette in her early forties. At first, I found the experience ,though pleasant, lacking the excitement and urgency that comes with a good, high enema. That was before I met "D" one of my former therapists who included enemas as an integral part of her colon hydrotherapy.

"D" employed the "Libe" open sytem where the patient lies on his / her back with their knees flexed and their buttocks perched over a waste receptical. Unlike the closed system, the water runs in continuosly from a short pipe afixed to the machine and inserted several inches into the rectum. My therapist would give me a three quart enema (using my own equipment) and have me retain it while I positioned myself on the machine and over the rectal pipe. Then, with the water running into me, I was allowed to void the enema, all the time watching the outflow in a lighted tube next to the machine. The experience was a klismo's dream.

'

While this experience was more than a decade ago, my current colon irigation therapist (who again employs and old Hyudrosan closed type of machine, is also into enemas and begins each of our monthly sessions with one or more large volume soapsud enemas.

One caveat....not all hydrotherapists are into enemas....and those that are, are not likely to divulge that fact until they know a client very well. I waited a year before asking my therapist if she would help me with "enema therapy" so be careful when broaching this subject.

I have also used the open type of colonic. i think they are very very good in their cleansing. they give you a colonic similar to having one of the commercial boards such as colema that you install in your own bathroom. if you have the room, and like the effect of the colonic, they work well. they will also clean you out more intensly than any enema you can give or take. and they are very relaxing and without cramps. i highoy recommend them.

I have had five colonics and I favor a good enema over a colonic. The colonic nozzle insertion is not pleasant and I personally feel that I have achieved better results; especially when constipated by taking an enema series. I have felt discomfort for several days after receiving a colonic whereas after taking a good enema I have not experienced discomfort. However; I will say that a colonic will help eliminate waste that one does not realize is in the colon. The hydrotherapist that I went to was very professional but she was always trying to sell me additional items to take orally in addition to suggesting that I initially receive three colonics in three sussessive weeks followed by one each quarter. This can become very expensive when one is living on a limited income. I believe that if you take a good enema when needed followed by regular maintenance cleansing enemas you will achieve very similar results as you would achieve by receiving a colonic.

After doing research on them I myself perfer enemas. I have often wanted to have one done but I can't justify the cost for the session when I can do as many enemas as I want at home. Plus afterwards I feel like I have had a colonic due to the high volume enemas that I like. Just my thoughts.

P

A good soapy enema (castille) is hard to beat. As part of a discipline session thay are an excellent therapy. There area several nurse therapaists I have discovered who excel at their treatments.

There's nothing more exciting (and humiliating) than being naked with a nozzle up the butt, adminstered by an experienced female disciplinarian.

A colonic on the other hand tends to be more medicinal from my point of view.

Recently I have had a coffee enema series, but again, highly medicinal.

Thoughts?

I joined this board very recently and have not had a chance to read all of the subjects and posts. This may have been addressed previously. I was wondering what is the general feeling of people here about enemas vs colonic irrigation? I have tried both but am a total a enema devotee. A colonic,although a good cleanout,doesn't seem nearly erotic as an enema. I have enjoyed enemas most of my life. I tried colonics at home but they are nowhere as sexually stimulating for me. Any thoughts anybody?

I love colonics. They are so relaxing when someone else controls the inflow and outflow with a closed system. My husband made a "colonic machine" with hardware and plumbing parts that we use in our master bathroom, and it works as well as when I go for a "professional" colonic. I go out for a colonic about four times a year because I feel so pampered while it is being done. It's like having a spa treatment.

I have had 1 colonic hydrotherapy, with Aquanet closed system, in a wellness center in Switzerland last summer. Beautiful and confortable experience!

As a receiver of both enemas and colonics, I can definitely tell you the former is more sensual. Colonics are administered by professionals and therefore they must keep a level of decorum - that means no hanky-panky! However, there are also two methods of performing a colonic.

In the first, the therapist watches the gauges and such, adjusting the temperature of the water and well as the amount going into you. This is the more cleansing in my opinion...as the therapist ensures a very thorough clean out.

The second method is that the therapist is not licensed(?) to administer the colonic, so rather they just set you up on the machine and you control the pressure and temperature of the water. From your vantage point on the table, you can see the clear tube showing what is being expelled. This just reminds me of taking a series of large enemas - at least one does not have to bother with filling the bags. The last time I had one of these types of colonics it was semi-sensual in the fact that the *very* pretty therapist came back into the room after I had settled myself on the nozzle (there was a modesty towel covering my lower section.) She stayed for the first 10 minutes making sure I had no difficulties as we chatted about colonics and enemas. She revealed to me she used the machine herself from time to time and really enjoyed the feeling. Now, *that* got my attention, but alas we parted our ways.

If you are more interested in the erotic aspects of things, then multiple enemas being carefully and lovingly delivered by a partner is the way to go. All sorts of 'scenes' can be played here. With a colonic, you're pretty much limited to a medical scenerio.

However, if you are more interested in a cleansing without fuss, then a colonic delivered by a caring professional is best.

I just went for a colonic at a new establishment this past weekend. The therapist was a total knockout in my opinion - not in the sense of a model, but more of a girl-next-door way (actually, make that woman-next-door.) Before we started the session, we spoke for about 15 minutes so she could gather history, etc, etc. I'm pretty sure she knew I enjoyed the erotic aspect of things because her face brightened when I mentioned I took enemas frequently (okay, not as frequently as I'd like anymore.) She sat on a high backed stool next to the table during the entire procedure...massaging my stomach when necessary. I was wearing one of those hospital-type shirts - you know, the one with the open back end. She was wearing a black figure hugging dress - with black stockings or pantyhose. 😮 OMG - I wanted so much to ask her to remove that dress! 😜 In any event, I'm sure she could see through the thin material that half-way through the process I got a hard-on...she just didn't mention it. She acted very professional, but you can bet your last dollar (franc, euro, whatever) that I'll be going back as soon as I can schedule it!

So I'd like to get a full discussion going about the differences between receiving an enema and getting a professionally done colon hydrotherapy session. To those of you who have had a colonic, please describe in as much detail your experiences during the session and how they differ from your experiences during your in-home enemas. I'm particularly interested in these areas:

*Feelings of fullness and pressure during a colonic as opposed to an enema--Is it much greater during a colonic? I found an 11-part video of a colonic (currently in the video section under "Pretty woman getting colonic") in which the practicioner says that a full fill of the colon during a colonic is four quarts a and that (with her system) that takes 1 minute to accomplish. I didn't know that at all. So when you get one your belly is expanding out the same as it would with a 4-quart enema?

*Aftereffects--I know that during my one large enema so far I experienced electrolyte imbalance and lightheadedness and a few other strange feelings. Because a colonic doesn't use salt or anything, does the body absorb a tremendous amount of water and are you peeing almost constantly afterwards with accompanying odd feelings in the head? Or does the fact that you don't retain the water and that it passes out almost immediately mitigate any kind of extreme absorption?

Please feel free to bring up any other differences you're aware of.

Having been intriqued but embarrassed about enemas given to me about age 4 or 5, I enjoyed the "bulb" in the bathtub when parents weren't around. Then, about 14 was the last one my mother gave me on my bed facing down. When I had a chance, I mostly used the bulb and inserted and evacuated many times -- somewhat afraid of injecting too much and no one to talk to about it. In my early 20's I read in an ad about colonics and massage. I was in the mood to try it. I went to his address, a barber shop, and in the back he had this colonic machine. He was much older than I, but that didn't matter. He locked the shop, directed me to a back room, and asked if I wanted to take a shower first and I did. Then he told me to lay on the colonic table on my left side with my right knee up. I watched him lube a black nozzel, and it had an injection side, and what I learned to be an evacuation side, all in one. He started inserting, and then I felt a warm flush in me, and a surging of water that was going in, and waste coming out into the tube that went directly into a drain. There was no odor -- and the tube kept going in farther and farther, injecting and releasing water. So the whole experience was surging and pressures and water in and waste out. When finished, there was no need to go to the toiled. The water was gone. Then, he asked me to lay on my back with knees up and spread apart, and he again inserted his unit into me, then started with much cooler water that began giving me chills up and down my legs, and he started massaging my stomach and around my cock and balls, then slowly put his mouth on me and I had the wildest orgasm I can remember. So -- I guess the only difference between enemas and colonics (from that experience) is that the waste water is evacuated all automatically in the process.

I think the main difference is that colonics reach a lot more higher into the colon than a reg enema, but they are both still the same, they are indeed enemas only 2 different words. mabey its that the word colonic does not seem as invasive as the word, your going to get a enema. And we all know both are the same thing.

I started getting colonics in 2000--

I got one a month for about 4 years---they are a wonderful experience

She was also an enema person who was very well aware that many found pleasure in the process--we talked about it extensively

I have moved and no longer get colonics--it is an expensive habit --but rest assured most colon therapists are aware----

Just wanted to finish by saying that a colonic is a pleasure but not necessarily erotic

and I believe that pleasure is absolutely ok--especially when coupled with something that is good for you--

The biggest difference between colonics and enemas is cost. Today a single colonic irrigation can set you back anywhere from $60 to $90 whereas your first enema is the price of the bag ($6 to $12). Thereafter it's free.

I've had many colonics from at least a dozen therapists around the country. The equipment varied from the old glass globes, to the Dirker system, to today's box on the wall, where your fecal matter passes by your line of vision in a glass tube. The nozzles varied from long thin steel rods, to fat metal ones with in/outflow openings to today's plastic throwaway tips w/obturators. There are open and closed systems...one requires you to expell the waste using your own muscular pressure and the other requires no effort on your part as the waste is gently sucked out of you.

The other difference from an enema as 'corky1874' mentioned is that you are able to do everything from one position i.e. inflow of water and outlow of waste. With an enema you have the incovenience of jumping up from the bed or floor and rushing to the toilet. Furthermore, to get the same cleansing effect of the colonic, you'd have to fill your bag several times to equal the amount of water that is used in a colonic.

The BOTTOM line is...it's water in and waste out. One for $90 and the other for $12 and free thereafter.

I have had many colonics. It was the first way that I had the courage enough to let a woman explore that area. I had enjoyed enemas for years and had never found a lady that would try it with me. The all of the therapists have been ladies and I usually ask questions about enemas. They have all been very helpful. I had a therapist tell me about another client that had had an ejaculation during a colonic. She believed that he was so emberessed that he never came back. I had another therapist tell me during a one on one group therapy session that she many times was turned on by giving herself a colonic. She was a lesbain. The colonic is different than an enema there is less stimulation for me. I believe that being covered is part of that. I have often fantisised about visiting a colonic therapist with lady partner and having the therapist assist us in the adminstration of a colonic to each other with out the covering.

To George108--I'm interested to know in what context the therapist brought up the male's ejaculation during the colonic. Did you have a therapist who is just very free spirited and is able to acknowledge that enemas and colonics have a sexual side? And what do you mean by a "one-on-one group therapy session" in which the lesbian mentioned being turned on by colonics? What exactly did she say?

It seems to me (viewing the situation from afar) that most therapists are completely against acknowledging the sensual side of the procedure although I'd bet that most of them find some kind of extracurricular satisfaction in it.

I've had colonics before in non-sexual situations and found them to be very helpful. At one particular session with a well qualified therapist I was able to let go of a lot of emotional "crap" having to do with anger and frustration. After the session I felt twenty pounds lighter and was able to smile again. I find

colonics to be therapuetic while enemas very erotic.

I have had both closed and open colonics. It's the way the water is injected and allowed to comeout.

I also find colonics to be therapuetic while enemas erotic. I believe part of that is the setting.

I noticed that the posters in this thread appear to be mostly male.

For some reason, I was always under the impression that a lot more women than men went to colonic therapists. Women seem to be much more open about their health and things that might be considered a medical topic. I think that is what leads me to believe that women get more colonics. Men on the other hand seem to be much more private and maybe even embarrassed about such matters.

In a group, women will discuss the most intimate details, while men say very little about it and tend to talk about sports, cars or anything but their latest Dr. visit or health problem.

As a male, I have considered at least trying a colonic, but simply haven't done it yet. I get to the point of calling for an appointment, and then chicken out.

Anyone want to convince me to stop being a wimp and try one?

I have had many, many a colonic, beginning nearly forty years ago. Usually I get one when I want an enema but have no one to give it to me. I prefer the enema by a wide margin, but nevetheless the fealing of lightness and cleanliness after a colonic is quite nice. I have found five or six over the years who are happy to give enemas in lieu of colonics, but all the others have declined to do so--invariably they tout the superior benefits of the colonic for cleansing. I have never discussed the erotic aspects, although with those who have given me enemas, particularly those who have done it on a regular basis, I have made no secret of the pleasure I take from them. One colonic therapist in L.A. actually visited my house to give me an enema on one occasion. In the city where I now live, I have asked, both in person and by phone, whether I can get an enema, and I have found no takers.

Hagar -- You're correct that more women than men get colonics. More women than men use enemas at home for health purposes, too. However, more men than women have a fetish for it and come on boards such as this to talk about it, so the fact that no women have posted on this thread isn't peculiar.

Hi Hagar.

Go ahead, it'll be great. As willie in the post above said, that the lady who gave him his colonic was an enjoyable companion thru the process. I havn't had a colonic since I left Ca some years ago (there was a colon therapist on every street!!..well almost!) now I live in NC and the nearest is 100 miles away!! Besides the colonic session one of the wonderful things about the session was that we were locked away from the outside world!! While geting the colonic, I talked, she talked, we talked, did I say that "I talked!!" 'Got a real "Load" off my mind!! There were two lady therapists that I knew and here some years later we still stay in touch. Happy Trails!!

I've had 5 colonics. Very relaxing, not erotic. Unfortunately have to travel at least an hour to receive one. :'(

Hagar: Colon therapists tell me that women really are more chatty than men on the treatment table. But some men will admit they come because of good memories of enemas from mom (yours too??) and they are unable to find someone at home to meet their current enema wishes.

They say it is important to get a good feeling for the therapist in person or by phone to make the first session a happy one, even if a little nervous one.

I have had severa colonics . They feel very good, but are very clinical and a bit expensive. My colon therapist knows and encourages the use of enemas, but strictly for health reasons. The reasonf for pleasure and eroticism has never come up.

I was under the impression that in a colonic the tube went very far in. Is that true. I have never seen a colon tube. Isn't it real long?
