Question for a freind

[Jon Miller]

Where and how would you go about getting a colonic?

[Timexwatch]

All you need are a tube of KY, a garden hose and a friend who can keep a secret.

And why do you ask? Been involved in some crazy stuff lately?

[alva]

There's alot of German instructional video's of that very subject around.

If David Letterman ever did a top ten list of questions you should never ask on Apolyton this would be somewhere in the middle.

To answer though, it would depend on how thorough you want it done.

[Jon Miller]

I haven't been involved in anything crazy. What is the difference between an emina and a colonic then?

And I would have thought you would want a doctor to do it?

JM

[Jon Miller]

What good does it do for you, health wise?

JM

[alva]

Isn't a colonic just a drink to err facilitate the business, while a enima is a ...well, you know what it is.


I had a few of those in the army (when my crohn started to emerge), yup even old school style...bucket, warm water and soap.

[Vince278]

A doctor is preferred if for a medical concern. Otherwise, a place that practices New Age medicine will do. A do-it-yourself enema is usually not the way to go.

[Jon Miller]

How would you go about getting it paid for by health insurance?

JM

[Vince278]

I would think it would have to be a doctor in that case.

I dont think i know what a colonic is, if that is the go juice they give ya before a colonscope then ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Good heavens that crap i have heard is nasty it is called go litely, and dosent reflect te name. The other on the other hand i have had the not so pleasure of having while in labor with my first kid. Like i needed more abdominal pain while trying to give birth. Either or id rather do with out tyvm

[Jon Miller]

ok, so no one has told me what a colonic is (versus an enema)

also, what they are suppose to do for you health wise..

Jon Miller
(these two are questions for myself (I am not entirely sure my frenid knows what they are.. he does want one though ?)

[Mrs. Tuberski]

ok a colonic cleans the whole colon the enema only does the lower half and is used most of the time to instigate bowel activity.

[Mrs. Tuberski]

i will say of ur friend wants a colonic he might as well schedule him self for a colonoscopy where the camera can see what might be going on up in there. No sense cleaning the colon wiht out getting all the insight.

They do facilitate weight loss. There are also contentious claims that they improve the health of the colon by removing impacted matter, though you're better off just eating fibre.
