The Self-Administered
Enema
The following is a good and easy-to-follow procedure for a
self-administered enema. While an enema is a rather personal procedure,
help from a third party will certainly make it somewhat easier.
Whenever you take an enema for the first time, always take three enemas in
a row on the first day and then one enema each day for at least a further
six days. If your bowels are moving, then you will want to use the enema
soon after evacuation. Take a shower and wash the anus well before and
after the procedure.
As
mentioned above, enema cans are available from most chemists. Use the good
old-fashioned jug and speculum type enema apparatus rather than the modern
atomized or suppository type alternatives - which really only work as
laxatives do - by irritating the bowels - and which can cause serious
dependence.
PLEASE NOTE: The speculum is the nozzle portion of the enema apparatus
(containing a tap) that is inserted into the anus.
a)
Close the tap on the speculum and fill the enema can with warm water.
b)
Hang or place the enema can at least three feet above the body (if you are
going to be lying on the floor, the basin cabinet will serve this
purpose).
c)
Open the tap on the speculum to let the air out of the tube - then close
the tap again.
d)
Grease the entire length of the speculum nozzle using Natural Soap, olive
oil or Vaseline and, using your finger, apply a liberal amount of the
chosen lubricant to the mouth of your anus (yes, you can do it).
e)
Place a thick towel (or large towel doubled over) on the floor and lie on
this.
f)
Turn onto your back and lift your feet onto the toilet seat - get yourself
comfortable - with your feet on the toilet seat and your knees bent at
ninety degrees.
g)
Still lying on your back, gently insert (wiggle) the speculum about half
an inch into the anus. The speculum usually inserts into the anus at an
angle that is parallel to the spine. Now, holding the speculum in place
with the one hand, open the tap on the speculum with the other hand.
i)
The pressure of the water running into the anus will clear the way for the
speculum to be fully inserted (about 6 to 7 centimeters). Using only
gentle pressure work the speculum back and forth (gently wiggle it) with
the fingers until it slides easily into the anus.
j)
Once the speculum nozzle is fully inserted, turn onto your left side so
that the descending colon is more easily filled and wait as the warm water
runs into your colon. While lying on your side use the fingers of your
free hand to deep massage the left side of your stomach (descending
colon). The urge to evacuate is normal and should be resisted until you
can resist no more. Once the urge becomes too strong, close the speculum
tap, remove the speculum, sit on the toilet seat, and allow Nature to
empty your bowels.
k)
Repeat the above procedure until you have taken in and eliminated at least
one whole can of warm water.
l)
The first time you use the enema try taking in three cans of warm water in
stages and then evacuate this water in stages. DO NOT TRY AND TAKE IN
THREE CANS AT ONCE. Let your reasonable comfort/discomfort be your guide
as to how much you can hold each time before evacuating.
m)
Once a good proportion of the water in the can has run into your colon,
and you find that the urge to evacuate can be resisted (this will not
usually happen during the first treatment), remove the speculum and,
without first evacuating, shift the body into a head-down position. Now
massage across the top of the stomach with your fingers while in this
“praying” position. The water will run into the transverse colon and the
massage will help to loosen foreign matter that may be lodged in the
colon. Having done so, lie on your right side and massage the right side
of your stomach (ascending colon) with your free hand. By moving into
these positions you have helped the water to traverse the entire colon and
you will have promoted a more effective flush. Having completed the flush,
remain on the toilet seat for some time until your bowels have fully
emptied themselves.
I
have known a treatment such as this to overcome the common cold within one
hour. Sometimes you can actually see masses of mucous that have been
eliminated. The enema did in minutes what the cold would otherwise have
had to do over a period of days or weeks (which only goes to prove that
the cause for most ailments can be traced to the bowels.)
Always examine the toilet bowl after each evacuation. You might see little
black “buttons”, long stringy “threads” that have taken the shape of the
sacculations in the colon, and even black, hard matter being eliminated -
the more you are able to massage the colon during the enema the more
likely you are to see such matter. This is a good sign.
Once again, we wish to discourage you from becoming dependant on laxatives
and treatments that aid bowel function. Your primary goal is to regulate
your diet and lifestyle to the point where laxatives and enemas etcetera
are no longer necessary.
