The Prelude offers a new method of internal cleansing by flushing the rectum with one or more small volumes of liquid. Unlike conventional enemas, which discharge too quickly and fill the bulb with air, the Prelude uses a special one-way, slow-flow valve. This valve slows the flow of liquid and prevents air from entering the bulb, while also preventing backflow of liquid when the nozzle is in the rectum.
Why is a smaller volume flush better? Because a large volume flush can cause fluid to build up in the colon, causing cramping and a longer cleansing process. Why a slow stream? Because introducing the fluid slowly allows for better control of the process, thus avoiding the pressure and cramping caused by a rapid surge of fluid into the rectum.
For most people, the goal of an enema is to cleanse the rectum, not the entire lower digestive tract. The Prelude makes this easier, faster, and more comfortable. Ideal for preparing for anal play, the Aneros Prelude Enema Kit features a special slow-flow, one-way nozzle for easy and comfortable preparation.
