I can't speak for that particular article, but as for coffee enemas, they are a standard treatment regimen in natural medicine, herbalism, etc.
Used to detoxify the lower gastrointestinal tract, some also believe them to be beneficial as an adjunct therapy in the treatment of some forms of cancer.
Among the first to popularize them to the general public was Doctor Max Gerson.
A Web search will yield volumes of information on the topic.
