Can someone 'splain high colonics?

LOL firstly, I don’t mean -graphically- now, mind you. But what is supposed to be the idea behind them? And, if there are any medical doctors/nurses reading, do they do what they’re supposed to do, and is that really a good thing to do?

FTR, I’ve never had an enema; I’m assuming (lol dangerous thing to do, I know) that these high colonics are like super-duper enemas. :stuck_out_tongue:

Don’t ask why this question comes up – just curious, really. :wink:

Definitely not a good idea. If done improperly, it can perforate the intestine. Not fun.
