I just use regular bubble bath & soak for a 1/2 hour everyday.
Do you... introduce the soapy water into your lower intestine? Coz... then you don't bubble bath like I do. Sphincters are pretty water tight... I know warm water can make you poop, but unless there is... insertion... its not an enema.
I've never taken a bath, without bubble bath but always in the warmest water; that's tolerable. I've gone swimming in warm water & didn't have to have bms, so it seems that it was the soap.
Yeah, my point is that unless you're actually putting the warm soapy water inside your sphincter it's not an enema. It just makes you poop.1 -

I meant that it acts as 1 because of involuntary insertion; upon submergence.1 -

Your sphincter defaults to closed.
If water/soap could just trickle in all willy-nilly just from getting into water, we'd be in some trouble.
Also swimming pools would become much grosser.
More likely the baths helped you to relax, making it easier for you to poop.18 -

That'd definitely explain the water/temperature but not that, it only occurs; when the water's soapy.0 -
When medically necessary.Karb_Kween wrote:Do you do them? How often? If not why, why not?
Thank goodness colonoscopies only happen every 5 years (for most people), but even then are mostly taken care of from the front end, so to speak,
and an enema provides GREAT incentive to avoid constipation! Drink more fluid, eat more fiber, move more.2 -
Yeah unless you have some issues with your sphincter, you're not getting water up there involuntarily. If you are... well as my original post says? You bubble bath very differently to me.
And you might want to see someone about that.2 -

I had terrible candida from strong antibiotics, so I did peppermint and lavender essential oil enemas, coffee enemas, msm and olive oil enemas, and probiotic enemas. It really improved my health at the time. Now that I take vitamin C in high doses for prevention of infections I haven't needed an antibiotic in years. I also haven't done an enema in years.
It's unlikely that you are going to lose much flora from enemas if you use filtered water and perforating your colon is almost if not impossible if you use the right equipment (very small colon tube).
I would say not to do enemas unless you have done your research and you have some issue like candida overgrowth from strong antibiotics.1 -
I find it shocking that people use enemas for woo woo purposes11

If the water is getting inside you without your intention of putting it there, then you would have issues with bowel content being expelled without your intention of having it come out (and not in the occasional stomach bug kind of way). Seriously, there is something in the bath that is relaxing you, or you have other issues going on. I could have you mixed up with someone else, but isn't your mother in health care?2 -

The only reason to every do an enema is if your doctors tells you to do so for a medical reason.
As for detox--no reason to do because your body already does that all by itself.1 -
