Enema Recipe:
1 tbsp. of sea salt per quart of water
2 to 2½ qts. Cool or Cold filtered water
Temperature 75° to 80°Fahrenheit
Or 75º or less!!
Directions:
Add solution to enema bag, mixing with warm filtered
water to achieve the required amount of solution.
Hang enema bag about 18 in. to 3
ft. above rectum. A good tool for this is the IV
Stand for Enemas
If you need good flow control for the enema solution. A ramp
clamp is a good option.
The Knee-chest position with chest
against floor and rectum higher than head this is a best position to receive this enema.
Insert nozzle/rectal
tube tip into anus, using a good lubricant (Super
Salve Surgilube
Vaseline
13oz. Astroglide
KY
Warming Liquid Lubricant) as needed. using a good lubricant will help prevent injury
to the delicate anal tissues.
Inject solution into rectum slowly, approximately one cup per minute (8oz.) or you
can raise the bag for a fast flow
to increase the sensation.
Try to slightly distend the colon or until it
becomes very uncomfortable to take any more solution.
Massaging abdomen in counter-clockwise direction during the injection will
distribute the solution throughout the colon.
When the enema bag is empty or no more fluid can be taken remove nozzle/rectal
tube.
For those that have trouble retaining the nozzle and or the solution.
You might want to try a retention
nozzle during the administration of the enema.
Some people use a retention
plug after they received their enema solution and removed the nozzle to retain their
enema for the desired amount of time. You can also fold a washcloth and press it tightly
against the anus.
Hold the solution until you have to expel, this will allow the enema to do its work.
Then you can move to the toilet and
release the enema.
When releasing an enema or having a normal bowel movement:
You can massage the abdomen in a clockwise direction this will help move the solution.
Massaging the abdomen while expelling the enema helps move the enema solution , gas
and feces toward the rectum and out the anus.
The best position for expelling your enema is squatting over the toilet not sitting on
it. The squatting position puts some pressure on your abdomen from your thighs.
In many countries, toilets are made so that people squat when they move their bowels. The
Welles Step positions your body so that you are squatting when you sit on the toilet.
Squatting, supports the abdominal wall and the bowel as we bear down, brings about
an easier bowel evacuation in this way.
People who use the Welles Step tend to have fewer hemorrhoids,
hernias, anal fissures, varicose veins and
almost never have to use laxatives.
It slides under the toilet when not in use.
It is best if you place a Welles
Step and then squat down over the toilet to release your enema.
By adding salt to the enema water you help filling your kidneys and bladder
with water. It will help eliminate the frequent trips needed to urinate after receiving
enemas.
Some people will take Ice Water Enemas
