Insert a Tube for Colon Cleansing

Cleanse your colon of acid, undigested food, mucous and even parasites with a colon cleanse. The cleanse may detoxify your body and improve your health and energy. To clean you colon properly, you must know how to insert the tube.

Instructions

    • 1

      Warm up your body. Walk around or do some mild exercises.

    • 2

      Hang the full enema bag from an IV pole or towel rack. You don't want it more than 2 feet higher than you or it will run too quickly.

    • 3

      Attach the end of the colon tube onto the tube of the enema bag. Medium-size colon tubes, like the size 24 or 26 French DAVOL, are preferable over a smaller size that can damage the colon.

    • 4

      Lubricate the colon tube with a pure natural vegetable oil or Vitamin E cream.

    • 5

      Lay down in a comfortable place on your left side. Take a deep breath and insert the tube into your colon. Start a small flow of the enema, which will create a channel. Move the tube inside slowly. The soft rubber-like tube will go in anywhere from 12 to 20 inches, however if it only goes in a few inches, don't force it. That will probably be enough.

    • 6

      Once the tube is partway in, turn onto your back. Lift your hips up onto a pillow to let gravity do some of the work.

    • 7

      Relax. Breathe evenly and let the water go in deep no matter how far the tube is in. Take the enema for 5 to 20 minutes. Let it sit for a while before getting up onto the toilet to expel.
