Suggested Use

You may choose from one of three types of liquid :
- water which is either destilled, filtered or purified
- brewed coffee
(use three tablespoons of ground, organically grown coffee beans for every one quart of water. Bring to a boil, turn down the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, then strain and cool to body temperature and pour into your enema bag)
- peppermint tea
(use 8 teabags of organically grown peppermint leaves for every one quart of water. Place the teabags in a pot and pour boiling water over them, cover the pot and let brew for 15 minutes, then strain and cool to body temperature and pour into your enema bag)

Find a comfortable, warm area to lay down, yet is easy for you to get up from and easy to get to the toilet. Many prefer to take an enema series right in a hot bath tub. In this way, you are more comfortable and relaxed as your body is slightly lifted off the ground. Others prefer to take their enema bag into their bedroom or sunny living room. Try different locations until you find what works for you.

Before you fill the bag, make sure the tubing clamp is shut tight so no water spills out as you are filling the bag. When you add your liquid to the enema bag, it should be body temperature (not cooler or hotter). Check the temperature by placing some on the inside surface of your wrist, if you feel a comfortable warmth then it is the right temperature. You may add more water to your enema bag to bring it up to full. Hang the bag at least two feet above your body.

Use a non-petroleum lubricant. Olive oil and Vitamin E oil also work. Lie on your right side or your back, which ever makes insertion easier for you. Insert the lubricated nozzle.

Make sure you are comfortable and then open the clamp. Keep the clamp in your hand or nearby so you can, without difficulty, control the flow of liquid into your body. Go slowly! The skill needed for successful colon cleansing is to let only a small amount of liquid enter your colon at a time. If you add liquid too quickly, you will stimulate peristaltic action in the sigmoid and the rectum, making it near to impossible to get water into the transverse and ascending colon. If a hint of cramping occurs, immediately stop the flow and relax. Take a big breath and slowly let it out. When there is no more cramping, or 30-60 seconds have passed, resume filling your colon with small amounts of liquid until you have taken in 1- 3 quarts, or you can no longer tolerate the amount of cramping that is occurring. You do not need to force yourself to withstand any pain. If you were only able to take a pint of liquid before you experience consistent cramping, sit on the toilet and let your bowel empty.

Take as many enemas in a row that you need to completely empty your bowel or until the discomfort is released. Best results are achieved by massaging the intestines and by holding the water as long as possible/comfortable. It is smart to add probiotics into the last enema liquid! There is no need to suffer with bloating and/or constipation. You will have relief within 20-30 minutes.

You will know that your colon is clean by the colour of water that is coming out. Once the water is clean, it usually means that colon is clean, but some people may have layers of mucoid plaque, and it may take days or weeks of cleansing to get it out.
