This angle, known as the anorectal angle, helps to keep your poo in until its time for a bowel movement! When it's time to defecate, the puborectalis muscle relaxes, allowing the rectum to straighten and let your poo out.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis muscle is most relaxed in a “squatting” position - or when your knees are above your hips. In sitting there is a more acute angle pulling on the rectum and therefore more effort and strain is required to open the bowels. This is where the BIEN Toilet Stool comes in - allowing you to use your toilet, but assisting the pelvic floor to completely relax and open.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenefits of using the BIEN Slim Line Timber Toilet Stool include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReducing haemorrhoids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReducing bloating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReducing straining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmptying the bowel more completely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReducing strain through the pelvic floor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReducing prolapse\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReducing the time spent on the toilet\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHelping to have a more satisfying poop!\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e*Please note: This product cannot be delivered to a PO box or internationally.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BIEN Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48624501063905,"sku":null,"price":68.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/7377\/0977\/files\/Non_folding_slim_line_timber_toilet_stool.png?v=1783911152","url":"https:\/\/www.bien.com.au\/products\/slim-line-bamboo-toilet-stool","provider":"BIEN Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
