Colonic Hydrotherapy

I agree withh swithable suzie, ( as I usually do!) though I cant afford as many colonics as she can, I enjoy them as you are certain you will not be doing the job alone! They dont seem as exciting though and dont usually have soap etc added which makes them relatively tame. Also the operatives usually keep the pressur fairly low wheras when you give an enema, you get the effect of whatever has been added and you take what you can hold and get some real cramps with it. \if you have a series of enemas and take a good volume of water, I am sure you get a good clean out ut it is much easier to just lie back and have it all done for you

Around twenty years ago, I went to an older lady for a colonic. She did her best to put me at ease and showed me what she used. She told me to follow her into the bathroom and showed me a colema board that she used. She then told me that she gave some of her clients enemas and asked me if I wanted a colonic or several enemas. She asked me if I ever had either an enema or colonic before. I told her that I had both. She asked me about both and I told her that I had both gravity and machine colonics, but had not had a colema one. She asked me about my enema history and I told her that it was my mother’s remedy for just about any ailment. She chuckled and assured me that it was the same for her and most of her clients as well. She said that maybe enemas would be the right choice for me that day. I pondered her suggestion for a few seconds, not wanting to seem overly excited (which I was). I chose the enema option.

She told me to wait and she soon returned with a plastic enema bucket that she unwrapped as she ran water in the sink until she was satisfied with the temperature. She then poured olive oil from a bottle into the bucket until it ran down and filled about half of the clear tube. Then she filled the bucket with water and added a packet of castile soap to it making it rather cloudy and milky. I was told to disrobe in the bathroom and wrap myself in the sheet that she gave me. When I was done, she called from the next room. She told me to get on the massage table on my left side and she lifted the sheet to expose my rear as she lubed my anus and inserted the tube. She gave me the first third on my left side, then had me turn on my stomach for the next third and finished the enema on my right side. She had me retain it about five minutes before removing the tube and letting me go to the bathroom to expel. After I was on the toilet for about five minutes she came in and rinsed out the bucket and prepared another enema which was again soapy but without the olive oil. She told me to take my time and when I was done to meet her by the massage table.

When I came out she told me to get back up on the table, but this time in a knee-chest position. She then lifted the sheet from my raised behind and lubed me. This time she also gave me a thorough internal lubing while telling me that the first enema must have cleaned me out pretty well. She then said that she was going to work the tubing deeper into me as she was administering this enema. I got the first half of that enema in the knee-chest position and the finished on my right side. When it was empty, she told me that she got the tube about fifteen inches into me. After retaining the enema for five minutes she let me expel.

The last enema she gave me was a warm saline one in the knee-chest position. She also had a pitcher with more solution in it and asked me if I could take more, as it would rinse out the soap better. I told her that I would try and she coaxed a bit more than half of another bucket into me before I surrendered. I recall retaining that one the required five minutes too before she let me expel.

When I left her place, I felt more cleaned out than any colonic that I had before or since then.

I enjoy both kinds. Enemas take longer to clean the colon because they require filling and holding instead of irrigation. Of course that means more time for personal touching.

I have had 2 colonics and untold enemas. Both times I had the colonics the practionier complained that my colon wasn"t "releasing" and the "dirty" water continued to cloud the outflow. I just gave myself 5 soapy 2 quart enemas in the shower and the last one released was completely clear. I think enemas are just as effective if not more so than colonics for cleaning. The colonics were very clinical and not nearly as much fun as enemas.

When I have a professionally given colonic, I ask to take the disposible equipment home with me. Using a large reservior of clean water,introduced using gravity via the side tube and blocking off the large bore exit tube with my thumb, then releasing it peeriodically to empty down the loo, I can self administer a reasonable colonic.

Its much nicer having it all done for you but its a lot cheaper by DIY!!!!

I hope this info helps

Hey folks, this is my first post. I'm here because I am wondering if anyone could give me the rundown or explain what it's like to get a machine colonic. I've heard it can do wonders for people who carry around alot of toxins and suffer from chronic constipation. I would like to give it a try, but I'm not sure if it's a comfortable procedure like what I've read on various spa websites. Also, anyone here know of a good therapist in Halifax,NS or maybe St.John, NB.

I love colonics, especially with a closed system like a Toxigen. The speculum stays in the rectum for the entire time. The water flows in and out as the therapist controls the inflow and outflow valves. They have a pressure gauge to tell how much pressure you have inside your colon. Some will release at a given pressure, some therapists will have you tell them when the pressure is too much and then they will release the water and waste. I find this extremely relaxing because the water flows in and out without any effort on my part and I love the sensation of my colon and abdomen stretching as it gets full and the feeling of everything being sucked out as you empty.

The open systems are not as relaxing because the water is constantly flowing and while the speculum stays in the whole time, it is the size of a pencil and you push to expel around the nozzle rather than having everything go THROUGH it in the closed system.

Marty, Susie is exactly right. A colonic is essentially a "Super Enema". Instead of a couple quarts of water like an enema, a few gallons are used a little at a time. The advantage to a colonic is that you don't have to hold in so much water at once and experience the kind of cramping that you get with an enema. From my experience a colonic is one of the most relaxing and comforting things one can do to detox.

I guess the only minor downside is the speculum insertion which really isn't that bad with adequate lubrication. It's an inch or so in diameter and goes in the rectum about 3 1/2". Water enters and waste exits through this same pipe, so there's no odor to deal with like the open systems.

Colonics are fine from a holistic standpoint. For my own selfish erotic point of view they are boring, especially the open system. The closed system with the right operator might have some possibilities. Remember, I am viewing this with the point of being sexually aroused. Most all clinics are licensed professional operations with medical ethics, etc. I have experienced one "old fashioned" colonic with a french tube administered by an experienced older female, who was very good at stimulating male arousal and ejaculation. That was an experience to remember. I have posted my recollection on this site previously. To condense, the procedure consisted of a standard (2 quart)enema with a short nozzle and the bag about three or four feet above my rectum and I was placed on my left side. I was then told to expel and laid on my back on the table. The bag was a three or four gallon hung just about two feet above and the tube about three feet long. The tube was separate from the bag and connected to the bag through a standard short nozzle. She lubed everything with jelly, bled the air from the line, and inserted the tube, then started the flow. As the flow continued she slowly threaded the tube into my lower intestines. The sensation was very subtle, and she would stop from time to time to massage my abdomen to prevent cramping. After a time my she filled my transverse colon and massaged it across my belly. That was an interesting feeling, I could feel my "guts" in a way I had never experienced before or since. The pressure of the water became intense and she slid a big pillow under my mid back to raise me up and the water pressure on my prostate and related seminal gear had produced a turgid penis. She cut the flow, left the tube in place, took some lotion, teased my nipples while she lectured me about how the male gender was good for only one thing, producing sperm and then quickly relieved my tension. I produced some nice spurts, too, the internal pressure helping, I'm sure. After that I felt like a water balloon about to burst, and she helped me to the potty. After that, the colonic machines are a bust.

I get colonics on a fairly regular basis. Always the closed system and at the same practice.

Ten years ago after I had retired I found this exnurse, also retired, who had setup a hydrotherpy clinic at her home. For two years I had a monthly appointments for a colonic. After colon surgery, not due to the colonics, I quit going to her because my budget became a little tight. The colonics were very pleasant as was she and I do miss the visits but I decided to do my own at home with a simple setup that I put together.

Back then you could not find any advertisements for the service but lately I have found there are two advertisement in my local paper and they are also listed in the telephone book. Looks like enemas and colonics are becoming popular again.

Had my 3rd colonic thus week. Monday, Wednesday and Today. I do this once a year with my therapist. I have 2 other sessions during the year where I just get one. They are totally relaxing, I could almost drift off to sleep. Not to mention how healthy they are. I feel great and very refreshed.

I would suggest that if you've never had a colonic, make an appointment. The only method I do not like is the LIBEE chair.

I attend at least 2 practices here in the Phoenix area where the ladies are not shy and I never wear a towel, which allows me to show off a superb erection during the entire process.

Often they will masturbate me for a little extra, but not always. You can tell they enjoy seeing a male patient and absolutely do not mind the sight of an erect penis.

Usually I accomplish this in my first visit by pulling the towel so that my testicles are showing. If they pull the towel down, I will just enjoy the session and never come back.

I find that anytime a tube is inserted in me and I have have water entering and leaving it is sensual and yes somewhat erotic. I would love to have my own colonic machine here at home. I would love to explain that to the kids. LOL. Most colonics are very clinical however but the perhaps they help feed the medical fetish in me. Looking back I have had some great fun with regular enemas but I have had the most enjoyable time with colonics. But the fun I have had if very rare or at least for me very difficult to find.

I've been taking colonics since the early 70s when they were $15 each. I flat refuse to pay $75 to $100 for one these days. I can get similar results by taking five different enemas in five different positions at home.

Colonics are very erotic and relaxing. Someone is usually giving you the colonic so you aren't "going it alone." I usually have a woman do the colonic, which is also very exciting, and the result is health, satisfaction, and an erotic experience. My first colonic was years ago and I had no idea what to expect, but she was very reassuring, looked at my health as a whole, not just my colon, and proceeded with the colonic. Unlike an enema, the colonic water will be introduced into you with a speculum which is first inserted slowly but firmly. The water is then evacuated and the cycle repeated 10 to 20 times until you are quite clean inside. I highly recommend it.

I've had 2 colonic sessions so far and am due for the 3rd tomorrow and am very much looking forward to it.

I agree that having the quite large speculum inserted does feel very erotic (can't help but to produce an erection)- it always feels like my therapist is inserting it very deeply too.

During the session at times she also seems to be constantly manipulating it in and out would this be a normal part of the process or something else(I don't want to get the wrong messages) - bumping firmly against my prostate is quite erotic but that may not be deliberate.

Does anyone else have any knowledge either from experiences or from working in this area?

I guess I'm the first woman to answer here.

Colonics are apparently only erotic if the therapist makes it so. Men who have responded to this sort of topic in the past have had a mixed answer to your question. I don't recall women saying they were particularly erotic. In my experience, they have not been erotic, but they have been very pampering. Therapists do not seem inclined to give vaginal, G-spot or rectal massages to women at all. After more than 50 colonics, I have never been masturbated by a therapist, which is quite the opposite of many of the male responses. I have of course, done it myself at times when I have used the open type systems and the therapist has been out of the room. i will say that I don't like the open systems as much as the closed systems. You could say my orgasms during use of the open system was the only thing I liked about it better than the closed type. I have never masturbated myself in front of a colonic therapist.

I have been using colonics, both professional and homemade for several years. As such, I have answered this question in my own way. Now, I pose it to our membership and ask them for their answers to the following questions. I am sure each of you has had your own experiences and thus each has his/her own answers.

So here goes:

Please explain what is a colonic? What is having one like? What is it for? Is it safe? What goes on when a person goes for a colonic? Please explain for those who know nothing about colonics.

A colonic is flushing the colon with water for the purpose of cleansing and detoxification. Nowadays you can get one in an office that uses a fully automatic machine. The machine uses electricity to pump warm water into your rectum through a speculum. After a certain volume has been pumped in the machine will then draw the water out of you. The cycle is repeated several times. The process works but in my opinion is not very stimulating or enjoyable. The machines are proven to be safe. I never heard of anyone getting an electric shock. You should try one and see for yourself.

I have had probably had a couple hundred colonics over a 60 plus period of time but have never encountered the automatic colonic explained above.

The open colonic has water that flows in continuously and when you are filled up, you expel into the discharge tube.

A colonic is a series of injections of water into the colon to clean it out of feces.

There are 2 basic colonic "machines" one is the Closed system where a speculum is inserted into the rectum with a drain hose and a fill hose attached. The colon therapist stays with you as she or he controls the flow of and temperature of the water. The therapist stops the out flow and slowly fills your colon. There is a pressure gauge which allows the therapist to monitor your colon's acceptance of the fluid so that they can add more water, stop the flow or release the water so that your colon can discharge it's contents.

In standard colonic treatment the therapist will probably fill you up and drain your colon as many times as 20 or more times.

With the open system, You lie on a padded table with your butt pressed up to a cone shaped tube. You insert a small stiff tube into your rectum and push up to the discharge tube. When you are settled an operator will come into the room and turn on the water and a timer. Then she/he will leave and you let the water flow in until you are filled up then you empty your bowels into the discharge tube. The machine is usually set for 40 - 45 minutes so you can fill up as many times as you feel you need, want. when the machine shuts off you pull out the water fill tube and get dressed.

Of the two systems I much prefer the closed system as I have found in my own experience that the colonic is much more effective in providing a more through cleansing than the open system.

Hope this helps. Corky

A colonic is where you can get it done professionally or you can do it your self at home with a colonic board.

Like the explanation before the professional colonic is done with a speculum that is controlled by a therapist and they control the flow as well as explain what is going on and the other is done this way as well accept you control the flow.

the colonic board is purchased from differant places like colemia boards of California, this system has a flexable tube that you slide your butt up to and insure it, the you slide up to the catch part of the board and start the flow, as you fill and you want to released you can or if you don't want to you don't have to but you can.

If your cleansing it is better to let it soak for a moment and then let it out.

I use my board every six months when I do a complete cleansing for seven days.

I have had people try to tell me that they put a colon tube all the way to the cecum and really wanted to argue with me, so I just let then think their stupid thoughts

Yes, I used to do that with the lady I got colonics from, I'd ask her to give me a good fill before I went to the toilet. She'd fill me up until I said "ok", then I'd go use the toilet at the finish of my colonic session. She knew that I was experienced with enemas, so I guess that she wasn't worried about an accident.

I am planning to visit a new (one I just recently discovered) colon hydrotherapist hopefully in the next few weeks. I figure that I should mention during the procedure that I take (and like taking) enemas on an occasional basis. That way she may not mind giving me a good fill up at the end of the session.

I plan to ask, and if she has any reservations, I can remind her that my anal control is pretty good due to experience with enemas... I can assure her that I wont have an "accident", either when she removes the speculum or on my way to the toilet. I never did with the last colonic hydrotherapist that I had (now deceased).

From my experience using both the open and closed systems therapists usually advise clients to try to release in the toilet the water and waste that may not have been expelled during the treatment. This is especially important if you have a long drive home ahead of you!

On another topic: A while back, someone posted about the speculum inserted while he was on his back with legs up, instead of the standard left side. The same thing happened to me with one therapist and I am wondering whether others had similar experience.

Bagbug, you brought up a good point. I tried many tines to insert a colon tube, each time it would coil up and eventually be expelled as the rectum couldn't hold it any more.

But, years ago91950-60's) I went to Spears Chiropatic Hospital in Denver. They had a colon therapist who used a colon tube. She used a regular speculum which had a opening into which she inserted a colon tube. While she had the water flowing in, she would slowly insert the tube while massaging the colon and slowly working the colon tube into the ascending colon and close to the cecum.

So it can be done but only by a professional and I don't think an individual can do it by themselves.

Enjoy your next enema!!! Corky

I have inserted my own colon tube (32 Fr, 30") to full length multiple times. For me the secret (as many others also have mentioned) is to advance the tube slowly as the water flows, and let the water expand the walls of your colon and help guide the tube deeper. Without the flowing water, it just coils and kinks, not fun!

Hi Colonics are simply not the same for me as enemas, they do not provide the stimulation that are present with and enema. However, they do provide you with a complete cleaning out, much better then even a series of enemas. You are simply fully flushed out after an hour of colonic irrigation machine works. No enemas can get you that fully washed out especially in that short a period of time.

I think there just a larger enema that has a fancier name and nicer equitment and the professional help of a doctor or nurse who almost always is good at what they do

and what ive heard about safety is its as healthy as drinking a glass of water. and the only reason enemas arent sometimes healthy is because of the use of tap water which has chlorine which is bad for you. but their water gets pureifeid

Hello:

I had my first colonic about a month ago and it was very relaxing. The hydrotherapist inserts a nozzle in that allows water to be pumped in and drained out. This, I believe, was the closed system machine. Aside from a pleasant feeling when the nozzle is inserted, it was relaxing but very non-sexual.

I much prefer an nice sensual, sex-filled series of enemas.

I have received many colonics over the years, in different parts of USA and Canada. I have asked about their customers, and found out that usually there are about 60% females to 40% males. So the above post did not surprise me in the least. Redrub
