Shower Enema/Equipment

The shower was the only thing I used in the last years and it's still a great pleasure for me.

I got used to it at the time when I travelled a lot and stayed in hotels. I unscrewed the shower head, and held the powerful stream of hot water at my asshole. What a wonderful strong massage!

After some time my ass opened and the water could stream inside. If I then close my anal muscles, no water can flow out, and the filling begins.

After holding the water I stay squatting in the bathtub, masturbating, and let it all out again.

Never blocked the drain with this.

Blocking the drain has been my only holdback on this.

@Dr.Enema:

If you have the toilet besides the shower, you have no problems with it 😄

I have only used the shower enema, but I adjust my pressure on a butterfly valve so about half runs out of the regular shower head, the remains out of the enema nozzle. I like that I can adjust the temp on-the-fly and while bent over on my fours the surplus water warms my back from the overhead shower.

As a novice, retaining is a concern, as was pressure and temperature. If I had an "oops" where I got a little panicky and leaked or couldn't get onto the toilet in time I didn't freak out because it just went down the drain. It was my private shower, no one else used it and I am clean freak anyhow. Having the filling in the shower helped in the beginning. It also helped me to learn about volume capability and learn to push my limits and take more because there's no

limit with water supply.

My only complaint is that the nozzle is steel which is very rigid, and the hose is short (I can't fill while on my back). But thx to reading here I can extend my hose now.

I also rehydrated with drinking electrolytes afterwards since there's no option of adding salts into

the tap water.

Asha, and others you can try my device. Rather easy to build and you can substitute a hot glue gun instead of epoxy. Here is the link http://www.zity.biz/gallery/image/64451

Another good thing is you can use it in most hotels, just bring a pair of pliers.

Yes I have you do have to be careful of the pressure.

Shower hose enemas are good as long as you control the pressure going into your rectum. It is good for multiple enemas and cleaning.

Be careful and watch the pressure. Better to build a pressure relief valve into the system.

I have posted on this subject previously, regarding the use of a homemade nozzle simply made from a white plastic shower hose which has been rounded over at the end. Quick, and very effective. Take care though, a shower can have high water pressure which could seriously harm you. It is safer to use a bag type enema.

If the shower hose is long enough to use it on the toilet you can clean yourself out very comfortably. just fill and expel while sitting on the thrown. so it s a matter of 15-20 minutes to get completely clean.

A small tee on the shower pipe with a 3/8 inch tube is all you need. Most wand showers are just 1/2 " pipe, so you can get a sprinkler tee from the home center and put it between the wand holder and the hose. Then you get the shower to wash over you and the simultneous water from the tube to use for enema.Watch the water temp so it is not too hot (Balance between shower comfort and enema temp). Note that the tee also helps limit the pressure. You can also put a clamp on the tube to control flow, which then boots the shower portion.

Don't worry about smell or grossness. The water running continuously washes it away. Remove the drain cover to help it go down, then just rinse the floor (and walls!) and soap up from time to time. It is great to sit on the shower floor and take it in, and really great just to freely expel while on your knees.

My latest and best cleanout method is to take 2 qts with about 2 TBS Dr. Bronner's on the bathroom floor as normal, then use a butt plug and enjoy mild cramping and self-massage. Then head straight into the shower and just blow out! The smell is not bad because the soap helps and you have enough water running to send it down the drain. On my knees I can fill and drain with the 3/8" tube over and over and completely clean all the way through. Then taking a 2 qt coffee from the bag on the shower floor is MOST relaxing, then expel the (darn clean) coffee, rinse the shower and finish up. Total time about 1:15.

Just a note about my post below on the shower tube: It is effectively similar to the system posted by 64yar47 below, but is really cheap and easy to make. 64yar47 I want to say that I too love that method of shower and enema at the same time!

WOW! wb86 and skybear

That is EXACTLY what I do when I travel! The bummer is you can't take the channel locks on a carry-on so you either check your bag or buy them at the destination. Sometimes I take my hose with me in the luggage and just hope the shower head is loose enough.

Note that a tee is the best because it lets the shower run at the same time to keep you warm and wash the material away. It also limits pressure because there is a relief path.

For this method you just lie in the tub and let the material go down the drain while the shower still runs and washes over you.

Awesome!

I thought I was the only guy that had done this "take the shower head off at the hotel" thing but it appears that there are many great and clever inventors in the enema world!

I'm using both shower enemas and and ordinary gravity feed container. The shower enema is great for a quick clean-out but the gravity feed with its fine control of the flow and especially the volume is my favorite, especially when in the mood for an erotic enema. I like to take my time and to know how much goes in. Usually I take about three liters but on a good day can go over 4. The feeling of a slow, large fill is truly erotic.

I have a hose barb on the shower in the bathroom as well as the shower

head in the basement. It is very easy to slip the tube off to put it away if

company is coming.

I replace the shower head with a Streem Master nozzle, and a flow control valve. The Streem Master nozzle is about 6" long, about 1" in diameter, and very smooth. They can be purchased from Streem Master or other vendors:

The flow control valve is very important, to limit the amount of water flowing into your colon. The normal shower pressure would be harmful, & the valve allows you to reduce the flow down to a trickle. These can be found at "big box" home improvement stores or plumbing supply stores.

A shower enema is pretty safe I would just make sure you have a diverter valve at the shower connection so that any pressure fluxes will go through the shower head rather than the enema hose. Other than that the water temp control valve is required in the building codes up north and not really required down south.

I see my post on pressure didn't post.

Again:

A bag at even 5 ft has a max pressure of about 2 psi....something your gut can probably withstand. But, household taps have a pressure around 40 psi. Multistories can have pressures of twice that.

Unless your innards are built like Michelin tires, I wouldn't take the risk.

Blitheben has an excellent point about excessive pressures in shower systems. It's what makes a shower invigorating after all.

Previous discussions have ranged around pressure limiters but these are not 'fail safe' and a failure would have the water coming out of your ears before you got that nozzle out.

In another of his posts though, blitheben refers to impurities and presumably to tap water being OK to ingest and therefore safe enough for the rectum. I must take issue with the generality of his statement.

Apart from the unpleasant taste of warm or hot water, would you drink from the hot faucet? I think not, because you know it's been stored in a tank in your home, much of which may be stagnant or has lingered around at ideal temperatures for bacterial growth. This takes me on to the many threads about hotel and cruise ship enemas.

As a former mechanical services engineer in buildings - plumbing, heating and air con - I could tell you some tales about what I have found in storage tanks. Covers displaced from storage tanks have allowed entry to all sorts of foreign bodies including dirt and dust, clothing, rags, dead mice and rats - probably choked to death on the multiplicity of used condoms! It's essential for hotels and ships to store water, for both hot and cold services and even more essential in multi-storey buildings where mains water pressure couldn't reach upper floors and needs pumping. Do I need to say more about the risks in either the domestic or commercial situation? Specifically referencing cruise ships - how many times have you heard of a ship outbreak of Norovirus, the vomiting disease? Frequently it's transmission is by water and the other main cause is by contact with faeces - because the virus is not dealt with by the lower digestive system.

Moral - use spring/bottled water. Supermarkets sell it in larger containers at negligible cost - it sure doesn't need to be distilled water Quaxy but its a whole lot safer than just any old H2O

I've been using various home-engineered shower systems for 30+ years and both eardrums are still intact 😉

Use a tube clamp or a ratcheting flow clamp to deal with the pressure. ALWAYS have some sort of valve or clamp that you can reach, preferrably within a foot of your ass, that you can immediately shut off the water with.

I do not use nozzles. I use 3/8" clear PVC flexible tubing from the hardware store that I've flame-dulled the cut edge with. It can easily be inserted 12 - 18 inches.

The advantage to not using a nozzle is you are able to immediately release the charge at any time.

I'm not big into retention, I like getting continually 'rinsed out' while laying on my back. Sometimes for up to an hour...

I use a pushbutton diverter at the shower head and attach the tubing to a hosebarb threaded through a PVC cap threaded on to the diverter outlet.

As for the safety of tap water. KNOW YOUR SYSTEM and know your country's laws. In a major industrialized country like the US or the UK, where the means exist to enforce the standards on the local public water system, and it is done routinely, it should be no problem If it is safe to drink, it is safe to take the other way as well. In some countries, standards may not be in place, and/or the means to enforce them may be limited.

If you are on a well, and you have any doubts about your well, you can always go out one night and pour a gallon of laundry bleach down it, wait 6-8 hours, and then let ONE faucet run for 2 minutes before you drink it, but again if it's safe to drink it's safe in an enema.

There IS one sorta-catch. Some water, especially well water is very "hard," That is it has a high calcium content. Calcium is very common in much of North America's bedrock. If you try to mix in soap, and the soap curdles instead of lathers, and leaves a lot of film behind, you have hard water. You might want to mix in some distilled water to get the soap to mix properly.

A lot of people don't realize this, but one of the reasons why NASA has embraced the "follow the water" strategy is that water is such a good solvent.

Distilled water is so pure that it's actually better NOT to drink it. Here's why: All other water, including bottled water and tap water contains SOME amount of organic minerals, usually less than is in your body.s own tissue, but SOME! Distilled water is so absolutely pure, it can actually get into the body and dissolve things like potassium, sodium, and calcium that your body needs. IT CAN ACTUALLY ABSORB NEEDED MINERALS RIGHT OUT OF THE BODY!! You won't hurt yourself drinking a glass of distilled water once or twice a day, as long as you are getting enough other fluid, but given that enemas are often two quarts or more, distilled water is actually MORE RISKY than tap water in mostg industrialized countries.

Distilled water will not absorb minerals. DI (deionized) water most certainly will. DI has such an affinity for metal ions that it will corrode metal plumbing (yes Virginia, even stainless steel) and as such it is only carried in plastic plumbing and fittings. Distilled water is used in many applications where it would be readily apparent that it was scavenging metal ions. If it were a scavenger then it would absolutely wreck automotive batteries and render biological specimens in research unfit for anything but histological mounting or other non-quantitative processes. Distilled water is regularly and primarily made using metallic apparatus (i.e.; flash distillation).

Distilled water, when a private or municipal water source is unfit or suspected of containing unhealthy chemicals or biologicals, is the preferred water to use.

I spent 18 years on the technical end of material, chemical, and biological research where confusion of the two (distilled and DI / DI-RO) was rampant even among educated researchers.

We have a few worry-worts here.

You can use any non-poison containing water you want for a few enemas.

If you needed special water, people would be winding up in the ER or DEAD after colonic irrigations which use either tap or water filtered by various means.

While we are being worry worts, take a look at this link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdominal_compartment_syndrome

Here is something for the four quarters to really think about. When the innards get filled and the abdomen cannot expand any more, the pressure necessarily rises. At pressures above 20 mm of mercury your heart can no longer supply blood to your intestines or other organs. They go ischemic and, do it long enough, and they start to die....taking you along with them.

20 mm mercury is about the same as 10" of water. Meaning, if you sustain that kind of pressure in your abdomen for long, you start causing damage...obviously if you burst an appendix you cause abrupt damage. The unlimited pressure of a shower faucet is just asking for trouble.

One of the theories about why there is a loss of appetite after surgery is that your intestines have gotten ischemic and they take a week or two to recover.

In addition, with high pressures your heart gets compressed and cannot deliver normal blood supply. Probably why some speak of feeling faint. Also, the feeling of nausea is probably your body trying to get rid of fluids to relieve pressure before damage....we have a lot of defense mechanisms like that.

So, one quart, maybe two. But don't get heroic and go to the limit. And certainly don't try to sustain the pressure by holding it. Life has enough uncertainties without us overriding our physiological safety valves.

Blitheben

I would like to read a professional’s comments on blitheben’s post. As a layman I can only read what seems relevant and use my brains. But according to the referenced Wikipedia article, abdominal compartment syndrome ‘occurs when tissue fluid within the peritoneal and retroperitoneal space ... accumulates in such large volumes that the abdominal wall compliance threshold is crossed and the abdomen can no longer stretch’. The only way an enema could cause any quantity of fluid at all to enter this space would be if the colon was perforated, in which case you were definitely doing it wrong, and you would be in serious trouble with peritonitis anyway. I suspect that abdominal compartment syndrome as a risk of enemas is like many of the ‘dangers’ mentioned in this thread—mere alarmism.

Simply ridculous. An enema bag hung with a column of water 10" wouldn't even flow inside you.

If they were all true, we true enema enthusiasts would be dead and there wouldn't be anyone left here on the forum.

Its not the pressure in itself. We survive that in short term. Its the danger of extended filling causing extended ischemia. For example, a blood pressure cuff cuts off blood flow. But when the cuff is deflated circulation resumes and pain goes away and no damage was done. Leave the cuff inflated for half an hour and we have another story. Same thing with a tourniquet; damage will be done if its left in place too long and that has to be balanced against damage done by blood loss if the tourniquet is loosened.

And, hydraulics is hydraulics. Filling the intestine displaces volume. Perforation is not needed or even relevant. If you fill until the abdominal cavity can expand no more, pressure will rise and blood cannot enter organs so long as pressure is that elevated.

And with that, I finish my comments on this. Thanks for your patience and comments.

I love my shower shot setup

I have made my own shower attachment which works very well. It is made from another shower hose. Look for the plain plastic type hose, not the metal corrugated type. Two hoses can be made from one hose, because there are two identical ends. I made one short nozzle, about four or five inches long, and a longer one (which I use as a colon tube) about fourteen inches long. After cutting to the desired length, simply round over the cut end with 1200 grit paper and polish the end with a rag until smooth. Then, go to a plumbing supplier and buy a simple male to male compression fitting. you will now be able to connect directly on to most standard shower hoses. Remember, shower pressures can be high, so be very careful! A method I use is to count how long it takes for the shower to deliver a quart of water, then count as the water fills you up. My shower takes fifteen seconds per quart, so I simply count up to thirty ('elephants') to give myself two quarts.

I just go straight with the shower hose and warm water. If i want a full inflation I use the shower head as well. But I have done loads with a balloon on the end with a pin prick in the end. Wow my belly distends really big.

All I do is use the hose from a removable showed head. Just unscrew the head and put the hose against your special place. Let the force of the water fill you up.
