    A therapist told me it used to make her lose a fair amount of weight when she had several...

    Fantastic. feels a bit weird but afterwards you feel great
    Flames in the Garden of Eden
    Heaven in pieces at my feet
    I faced the raging ruins
    Of a million sleepless nights
    I need to rest my weary head
    On your resurrection bed.

    Hi, I don't really think anyone should need to resort to having one of these done..if you eat a healthy diet, and execise regularly-you should be emptying your bowels regularly too. It's not really a natural thing, to have a tube shoved up you to flush anything out like that! lol.

    I wouldn't have it done, don't feel the need to be honest.

    I had one last year and loved it! The girl who did it was very sweet and down to earth and she laughed and joked a bit but in a professional way. I'd love to have one again, I felt spotless afterwards, inside and out! I live in Croydon and it cost me £65.

  • I had several colonics last year to help with IBS.

    Unfortunately you do need to have more than one treatment to feel the benefits and they are very expensive, about £70 a time. You didn't mention in post why you were considering having it done.

    There is no need to be embarrassed at all, you are covered at all times.

    The doctor I used was recommended by a friend. He has been doing colonics for over 20 years and also teaches others how to do it.

    The sensation is really wierd but not at all uncomfortable and quite uplifting!

    :D

    I just appeals to me because I suffer from constipation quite alot even with a healthy diet. Whenever I see people on TV speak about it they said they feel great afterwards.
