Yes I have. After a particular bad bout from eating trigger foods I decided to try it. I went to a local registered specialist who gave me some good advice and the treatment. I was a bit embarrassed by the treatment and the fact I'm a bloke and the therapy was given by a lady. Having said that it was all done very discreetly and not even my bum was on show. I was also informed what was going on inside me while the therapy was delivered. I was told how the gut was reduced in diameter due to the constant ibsd throughput and much more very informative. I was given probiotic in the ' final rinse' phase. I was also recommended probiotics to take orally. I found the treatment good I did notice I felt lighter in the gut area and better in my self. I would recommend it for all types of IBS. I found the address of my local practitioner. Here colonic-association.org this is where I found my therapist.
