WHAT IS AN ENEMA

VERSATILE, NON TOXIC, COMPACT & EVER EFFECTIVE

An enema is a type of colon cleanse using liquid infused into the colon via your rectum. Enema's can be an amazing tool for detoxing and may have many different benefits.

First and foremost, a 2 litre enema kit can help eliminate acute constipation from the lower bowel. When filled with purified water, held and then released in the toilet, a water enema is the perfect, non toxic and immediate solution for constipation. This can also help re-tone the colon muscles necessary for peristalsis. Happy Bum Bags are portable and therefore the perfect travel companion to help prevent constipation when you are away from home and out of routine. For those who suffer with lazy bowels, enemas may be performed whenever necessary or as advised by your health professional. They were standard medical practice prior to the introduction of pharmaceutical laxatives which although more convenient pose harmful side effects including dependency, irritation and laziness of the bowel.

If you're thinking about diving into the world of enemas, you've probably heard about coffee enemas! Coffee Enema's have gained popularity because of their believed incredible liver detoxification properties. Many of which has been tried and tested to be true. By absorbing coffee straight into the colon, by-passing the digestive system, organic coffee enemas can have many different benefits.

Coffee enemas have been shown to help boost antioxidant levels, draw toxicity out of the liver, flush the colon and are believed to bind to free radical cells in the body which is why they may be recommended by Natural Health Practitioners as a part of alternative cancer therapies. Max Gerson, the founder of the Gerson Therapy provides much research and support for their claims. For more information on studies involving coffee and other types of enemas, please refer to our research tab (currently a work in progress).

Enemas may also be a useful tool during fasting as the body may require extra assistance in eliminating toxicity. Enema's can be a gentle and immediate way to relieve the bowel and have not been known to cause any dependency issues or harm.

FAQ's

HOW OFTEN CAN I DO AN ENEMA?

An enema is a tool to help with your gut health, inflammation or whatever it is that you are suffering from. An enema can help you achieve greater health and wellbeing from just about any condition however, each of you will have a different goal to achieve.

To determine how often you should use your Happy Bum Bag ask yourself a few questions: What are my goals? What is the dis-ease I am trying to solve? How do I feel after my enema? What does my gut say? .

If you are constipated and not going to the toilet 2-3 times a day then a water enema is for you! You can do as many water enemas as you need to get things moving and whenever you need relief. If you are going 2-3 times a day and feel your bowels are emptying fully, you may not need regular water enemas as your body is already eliminating.

You may be suffering from candida, or parasites and then a coffee enema would be more suited to you. Or do you have cancer? Auto-immune disease? Poor skin? Sounds like your inflammation levels are high and regular anti inflammatory enemas would be beneficial until your body becomes less inflamed. Or perhaps alternating between coffee and anti-inflammatory. Do you have trouble sleeping? Probiotic implants are also very powerful for replenishing gut bacteria so if you are doing regular enemas or trying to improve your gut health, regular probiotic implants are very beneficial. Are you anxious? Again what you need will be different to the person next to you. Read the information provided under each recipe and section for further information.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COFFEE AND A WATER ENEMA?

A water enema is great for constipation, clearing the colon and is done by filling the whole 2 litre bag and filling as much as possible. No hold is required as the water is meant to reach as high up in the colon as possible and stimulate a release.⠀
⠀
A coffee enema is used for liver detoxification, boosting antioxidant levels, fighting fatigue, parasites, candida, and be useful for anxiety and depression. Coffee enemas use 600 ml of organic coffee that is then held in the colon for 15 minutes prior to releasing on the toilet.⠀
⠀
Try a water enema before you completing a coffee enema if you have trouble holding the coffee! A clear lower colon will help you hold the coffee solution for longer and make the coffee enema more comfortable to hold.⠀

WHY DO I FEEL BLOATED AFTER AN ENEMA?

Here are the 3 main reasons this can happen and how to prevent it & what to do!⠀
⠀
1. You are dehydrated - when you are dehydrated (aka not drinking at least 2.5 litres of water a day, your body will want to absorb any liquid that comes it's way. This can also be true if your diet is hight in salt or processed foods that have lots of additives. When you do an enema, your are inserting water or therapeutic liquid into the colon which then if you are dehydrated will get absorbed instead of released. Our recommendation is to drink lots of (filtered) water daily to ensure you are hydrated, and especially as your are detoxing to ensure your body is able to flush the toxicity out. This will prevent absorption and allow you to release more and not bloat after an enema.⠀
⠀
If this has happened to you and you feel like you retained water during an enema, try doing another water enema to follow to continue the flush out.⠀
⠀
2. Toxins are stirring up, but haven't all come out yet- if you have been constipated, eating poorly or suffering from other discomfort or disease for a long period of time, it will be a process to get everything out of your colon. Your colon is about 2 metres long and the average person is holding around 5-7 kilos of waste in there. If you do not go to the toilet everyday at least once, you are likely on the higher scale of that. Thus, when we do an enema and start to clear the lower colon your body begins to enter detox mode and but as its not able to get everything out we can experience bloating as your body prepares to move the rest. If you are severely constipated, a colonic or serious of colonics may be necessary to help reach higher in your colon but if you do not have access to a clinic, try taking a natural stool softener like magnesium oxide to help dissolve old waste matter and practice regular enemas to clear as much as you can. Your belly should be soft and comfortable to touch, this is a good indication that your are emptying.⠀
⠀
3. You are inflamed - Try taking a strong probiotic, eating and drinking lots of soothing inflammatory foods and minimising stress.⠀

ARE ENEMAS SAFE?

Yes when performed correctly enemas are very safe and have been used for hundreds of years in the medical profession. All of our kits are medical grade, TGA approved and come with instructional guides on how to use them safely. There are very few recorded side effects of enemas, and enemas are extremely gentle on the bowel using only gravity to fill the colon. At any point if you feed discomfort you can remove the enema tip and stop the enema. Consult your health care professionals before use if you have any pre existing health conditions.
