Abstract: A colon cleansing apparatus and method for use thereof for introduction of water into a person's colon to flush out fecal matter. The apparatus is used with a standard colon irrigation unit having a board on which a user sits and a splash shield which holds a disposable tip for introducing water into a user's rectum and which directs water expelled from the rectum through an opening through the board into a toilet. The apparatus replaces the toilet by supporting the irrigation unit on an elevated table top above a drain basin having a drain opening leading to the sewage pipes. Water from elevated warm and cold water tanks flows through tubes into a main tube attached to the tip with a valve midway along each of the pair to blend the water entering the main tube to a desired temperature. A spray of water directed at the drain opening prevents sewage pipe clogs by breaking up expelled fecal matter. A spray washing system self-cleaning the drain basin during use.

Abstract: A one piece colonic irrigation board having a generally elongate support table with a width and length which allows a person to lie comfortably thereon. The table includes an opening at a rear end thereof and a catch basin formed over the opening for receiving and directing downwardly fecal matter. The catch basin includes side walls disposed on each side of the opening, and a rear/top wall disposed at the rear of the opening to slope upwardly and forwardly over the opening, with the forward edges of the side walls and the rear/top wall defining a generally vertically oriented opening whose lower edge is adjacent to the forward edge of the opening in the table. A tube extends through the rear/top wall of the catch basin and out the generally vertical opening to deliver liquid to the colon of the person lying on the table. The upper surface of the table in front of the opening is formed to slope downwardly and inwardly from the sides and rearwardly into the opening.
