Where can I get Enema Equipment
Most supermarkets or drug stores carry a combination enema/douche/hot-water bottle syringes.
 

ARE ENEMAS SAFE?
With some simple instruction and if your only related health problem is constipation, then you bet! If you are unsure check with your health care provider before using enemas.
 

HOW OFTEN CAN I RECEIVE AN ENEMA?
If you are chronically constipated, it’s OK to start out taking an enema series daily. But soon the muscular walls of your lower intestine will begin to tone-up and you will experience more and more natural bowel movements.
(Try to establish a regular time for natural bowel movements and never ignore the urge to have a bowel movement.)

HOW MUCH LIQUID SHOULD I USE.
Most physicians try to limit the amount of liquid to use to 2 quarts. I recommend a maximum of 3 quarts, or as much as you can comfortably hold administered very slowly to lessen cramping. It’s important to remember that enemas should never hurt beyond some mild cramping. If you never use force to administer or retain your enema the threat of stretching the large intestine is essentially eliminated.
 

SHOULD I ADD SOAP OR OTHER INGREDIENTS TO MY ENEMA?
If you’re constipated or if you have been taking laxatives then your bowel is irritated enough already! NO . It disturbs the mucous and irritates the lining of the intestine. However their are some herbal enema additives that can be very beneficial.

SOME PEOPLE TAKE Acidophilus TO REPLACE "GOOD BACTERIA" AFTER AN ENEMA. IS THIS NECESSARY?
Not Really, But it is a good idea. An enema really only upsets the bad (anaerobic) bacteria in the colon, and enemas actually create a healthier environment for the beneficial bacteria to multiply in.
 

WILL USING ENEMAS UPSET MY CHEMICAL BALANCE?
No. You can lose some salts but these are readily replaced by using regular table salt with your meals. Actually, constipation can disrupt your chemical balance much more than a daily enema ever could.
 

DOES THE RECTAL TIP HURT? CAN I HARM MYSELF WITH IT?
The tip is easy to insert but you need to take some care when inserting it. Never force it.
Try to use a good lubricant  KY jelly, Vaseline, Astro glide
 

SHOULD I USE ENEMAS WHILE FASTING?
Absolutely! Fasting is a great way to help rid the body of toxins. But, when you stop eating, the bowel usually slows way down, leaving a residual of old stool in the lower bowel. So you can take an enema or two along with your fast to increase the elimination of toxins.
 

ARE ENEMAS AS GOOD AS COLONIC IRRIGATION? 
Colonics are the top of the line in bowel cleansing.  Although Colonics can be expensive and inconvenient.
You can achieve a clean large intestine by using high-volume enemas.
Enemas can over a short period of time, loosen and cause the elimination of the toxic waste lining on the wall of the large intestine even after years of constipation.
 

CAN I BECOME DEPENDENT ON ENEMAS?
Over time, chronic constipation causes the thinning and weakening of the muscles of the bowel wall.
Taking enemas can actually help reestablish muscle tone and improve intestinal function.
I can't think of a more natural way to exercise the bowel.
 

Of course some people can be psychologically predisposed to dependency.
At least with the use of enemas they are better off than if they were chronically constipated
or use laxatives
 

WHAT IS THE BEST POSITION FOR TAKING AN ENEMA?
While the Left Side position is the most comfortable the Knee Chest position is the best for taking an enema. It allows the solution to flow down hill into the colon. Making it easier to fill the entire colon.
