• Pelvic floor muscle anatomy and mechanics of defecation
• Self-treatment techniques including building a bowel routine, dietary recommendations, toileting posture, managing constipation with prolapse (rectocele), and daily exercises to help.
• Bonus Resources include proper toileting mechanics to facilitate emptying.
• We will also help you discern when a medical or physical therapy appointment may be indicated.
