    Red face Colonic Irrigation

    Thinking of getting this done...and have thought about it for years.


    Makes sense that one's insides have a flush-out now and again.


    The reported euphoria after the treatment is also interesting to me.


    Anyone ever done it or do it regularly? Any complications? (My Father, who is a medic, has always been typically cautious when I've brought this up, saying the risk of a perforated bowel is not worth it).

    Buy that toothbrush wire off Sales Corner.At £5, it's one of the cheapest ways of getting something rammed up your ar#e I'd say.

    Just because there is a hole there doesn't mean that you should stick a waterjet up it! I can think of 7 holes that us men have, and although I have tried a sinus washout and I don't have need for ear syringing the others I will leave alone.

    Might be a steer. Cannot comprehend why anyone would want to do it. Seems completely opposite to the purpose of the colon, which has been refined by nature to be optimum as a one way track.

    Each to their own though I suppose.

    Do you really want to be reunited with the 1 pence piece you swallowed when you were 5?

    Your digestive tract is self cleaning unless there is something wrong with you in which case you need medical attention

    If on the other hand the thought of having something shoved up you bum appeals then there are probably cheaper ways of going about it - stick to the commercially available devices though, no light bulbs or brown ale bottles etc or you will find yourself in A&E having to try and think of a plausible explanation............

    Your father is right! The risk of perforation isn't worth it.

    I suffer from chrons disease, so have fairly regular colonoscopys. Not quite the same, but it certainly isn't anything I would do voluntarily!

    Leave well alone and eat lots of Bran, vegetables, fruit etc.

    A mate had it done a few years ago.

    He got a discount by buying a course of 5 treatments at once.

    He never went back for the remaining 4

    It was worth taking you off my ignore list, another gem of a thread!

    No it doesn't! This type of 'thinking' will lead you to all sorts of loopy nonsense. Have you ever given homeopathy any thought?

    Having to do this before an operation, acceptable. I believe the theory is the same.

    However, considering having this done for years without having any problems is certainly not right.

    Perhaps you are considering this because you are having some issues. Please consult your GP first.

    Abso-bloody-lutely agree with the tidal wave of no-voting here. As one to whom this is performed occasionally for necessary medical reasons, there is no way I can view this as an opt-in enlightening or beneficial experience. In fact I would doubt the sanity (but not the sanitary) of anyone who actually paid to have this done.

    Totally unnecessary. If you feel the need for a clear out, change your diet to one that will do the job. The natural balance of bodily functions should not be messed with lightly.

    One potential problem is by flushing out all the crap, you are also getting rid of positive bacteria in your bowel (probiotics).

    Colonic Irrigation

    Post treatment euphoria?

    I don't doubt it. Same reaction as when a horse steps off your testicles.

    Colonic Irrigation

    You would be surprised to know that a common object to pop out is Lego

    40 year olds finding Lego they swallowed 35 years ago

    It's quite common

    My wife had it for medical reasons and the nurse asked "Do you eat sweetcorn?". My wife replied "No, not since I was a kid, why?"

    "Because there's some coming past you in the tube now" came the reply.

    Nice.

    Cheers chaps.

    Quite surprised at the overwhelming no-votes (perhaps you metrosexuals who do this are keeping schtum and not sharing your experiences ;-) )

    For the record, nothing wrong with my system. It's something I'd still consider but won't rush into.

  32. #32
    I bet you'd rush out of it though.

    Cheaper but just as effective, BTDT...

    Eat a whole salted gammon joint in one go. Don't pre-soak the salt out before roasting. Be prepared to get to the toilet damn quick at about 2am! Then at 3am. Then at 4am.....

    Like turning a hot tap on ;-)

    Too much detail? :-)

    Of course, this amount of salt intake could kill you but if it doesn't it might work.

    it's what you have done if you live in Chelsea, and have a 'personal trainer' dahling.
    It relies in pseudo medical hogwash ( or rather, buttwash) to convince people with too much money and not too much brainpower. Try 2 pints of Weston's 'Old Rosie' and a chilli. Nicer, cheaper, and, well, effective.

    Humans have been on planet Earth for well a long time,it seems in these times wherever money can be made then someone will offer something we had done without until that person thought about selling it.

    I think evolution has got to grips with self cleansing without some young blonde administering some garden hose into your anatomy after giving her your credit card details.

    Young blonde?

    I'm in. Where can I get this service and do they offer happy endings?

    The blond is a female right?

    When I was young, my parents bought a new posh bathroom with a bidet. It wasn't just one of those bidets with a tap but also had an upward pointing jet to aim at your chocolate starfish. I decided to try it but accidentally turned the tap to full before pulling the shower lever. The jet was so strong, I basically ended up with self administered colonic irrigation. It did clear me out, but I wouldn't repeat it! Maybe an option for the OP?
