      it is a process where water is put into your lower intestine and then you are evacuated.
      that is the best way for me to describe it without getting graphic. think high powered enema

          They are unhealthy and can really irritate your intestinal tract. They are also unnecessary!

              I've read a lot of varying things on them- from both ends of the spectrum (no pun intended ).

              It's not something I would do, personally - unless held at gunpoint, but I do know people who swear by them.

              Evaluate your reasoning behind (heh) it, talk to your doctor and go (heh heh) from there.

              Sorry. I know I'm 32 years old and bathroom humor should be beneath me- but it's not. Love/hate me for who I am.

                    You are braver than I. I couldn't imagine doing that on purpose! Why would you want to do something like that anyway? Not being rude...just honestly curious why someone would actually pay to have it done!

                          well actually a lot of people live by them. I know of several in the entertainment industry that are colonic devotees. I have done a lot of research and i trust that it will be fine. colonics date back to ancient Egypt. I am not worried at all. Everyone that I know that as done them is very please with the results and how they feel after. there is a noticable change in the waist line as well. **** even anna nicole had them

                            well, if anna nicole is doing it....

                            Seriously, unless I had an impacted bowel or something, there is NO WAY I am paying my hard-earned money on someone sticking something in my rectal area for the purposes of removing poop.

                              HA. i WAS GONNA SAY THAT TOO. IF ANNA NICOLE IS DOING IT, IT MUST BE GOOD....
                              I KNOW OF NO ONE WHO HAS ADMITTED TO ME THAT HE OR SHE DID THAT. PLEASE REPORT BACK HOW IT GOES. pLENTY OF PEOPLE DO IT, SO IT IS PROBABLY FINE, BUT I WONDER WHAT IT IS LIKE AFTER? NOT TO EB GROSS, BUT AFTER YOU HAEV DIARRHEA OR SOMETHING, THERE IS A DEFINITE DIFFERENT FEELING. MAYBE ITS SOMETHING LIKE THAT
