A member asked:
Is it just as effective to do a home enema as a professional colonic hydrotherapy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Colonic hydrotherapy has no medical indications. An occasional enema or ostipation is generally well tolerated. The cause of the ostipation needs to be evaluated. High fiber and high fluid diet can be helpful. 30 grams of fiber a day and 120 ounces of water.
