Easy and Reliable Ways to Improve the Effectiveness of the Enema It is commonly thought that taking an enema can clear out only the lower colon. This is ABSOLUTELY not true! You can cleanse the
entire colon using an enema.
To take an enema, you will need the right enema equipment, enough water and enough time, and the proper additives for your filtered water. In other words, for a complete colon cleanse, you should
not use a commercially prepared enema; you should
not use a small enema bag lacking the proper tubing, clamp, and nozzle; you should
not use an enema solution lacking therapeutic additives; and you should
not take your enema quickly.
To cleanse the entire colon with an enema, deliver the enema solution into the
first half, or beginning, of the colon -- the
ascending and
transverse colon -- where "stool" is still liquid.
In order to deliver the enema solution to these parts of the colon, use a
4-quart enema bag or a
4-quart enema bucket. Three to four quarts of solution may be necessary to reach the upper colon. Because of this, you will want a large-capacity enema system for easy access to this amount of enema solution. (Not everybody can hold this amount, so don't force it, causing pain!)
Use a Smooth Flow and Bulb Syringe. This pump fluid delivery system helps to bypass the lower part of the colon by pulsing enema solution deeper into the colon. For many this is an invaluable part of their enema system.
Use a ramp clamp. This is the easiest-to-use tubing clamp for best control of water flow. Go slowly as you deliver the enema solution into the colon. Try as little as a 1/4 cup of water every 20-30 seconds, or less. If you add water too quickly, you will stimulate peristaltic action in the sigmoid and the rectum, making it nearly impossible to get water into the deeper colon.
Use a hands-free nozzle. Any of the
inflatable nozzles or
silicone colon tubes work well hands-free. Having your hands free from the work of holding your nozzle to assure that it doesn't fall out of the anus gives you the capacity to easily work with the enema clamp and the Smooth Flow and Bulb Syringe and to massage the belly while you're taking the enema. Massaging the colon in a backwards motion can help move the enema solution deeper into the colon.
Use additives in the enema water. These include
sea salt and
essential oils. Sea salt, used in the first enema, helps to match the enema solution with the colon's electrolyte levels, making it easier for the colon to take in all the enema solution without stimulating the colon to expel the added contents.
Essential oils, used in the second enema, help to soothe and heal the colon. Essential oils to use are Purification, Frankincense, and the Citrus Oils. To learn more about using the essential oils in the colon, view our video,

For your third fill, take a coffee enema. When you deliver coffee to the colon, you increase blood flow. Increased blood flow to the intestinal tract improves the elimination processes within the colon. And, given that all of our blood passes through the liver every three minutes, the 12-to-15-minute coffee retention enema results in a form of dialysis and a uniquely effective detoxification.More colon cleanse tips: Make sure your enema solution is quite warm: 98 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit (36 to 38 degrees Celsius) is best. Cold enema solution prematurely stimulates the colon to try to expel its contents.
Give yourself 30 to 60 minutes for this entire colon cleanse process.
Once you "feel full enough," or have pain for more than a few seconds, or simply must let go of the enema solution, sit on the toilet as long as you feel you need and empty the contents of your colon.
Take 2-3 enemas in a row or an enema series. Once your body tells you that it has taken enough enema solution, sit on the toilet, empty the contents of your colon, and repeat the process.
