Cleansing procedure featuring in hygiene magazine (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

enema

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cleansing procedure' is the definition.
'enema' can be an answer for 'procedure' (I have seen 'medical procedure' mean 'enema' so perhaps 'procedure' could also mean 'enema'). I am unsure of the 'cleansing' bit.

'in hygiene magazine' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ENEMA' can be found hidden inside 'hygiene magazine'.

'featuring' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for enema that I've seen before include "In the end medical procedure" , "The bottom line in medical treatment?" , "Medical liquid introduced anally" , "Suppository" , "Bowel evacuator" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
