RELIEVE Pelvic Pain with Bowel Movements | RELAX Anus Method

[@sarahlee4683]

Thank you! BMs have been the worst part of my day for months due to the severe pain I experience for hours after a bm. Theres been a host of reasons for this but realizing the ‘why’ of no staining because of the spasm it creates and relation to the pelvic floor makes so much sense. Finally I have some hope that I can have normal painless bms in the future.

[@mellainenewman576]

Brilliant advice! I love all your marvellous helpful hints. Many blessings and thank you so much.❤🙏🥰Mellaine from Brisbane

Thank you. I have anismus. It happened right after a sacrum adjustment. It's been very taxing on my body and mind. I will try this. I'm in the USA. Have not found a doctor to help me.

Hi Michelle - found your videos helpful

[@michellephysio]

@gsti1985 Thank you for finding the videos helpful! Thanks so much for your feedback and support❤️🌺

[@Icemanツ]

I’m not sure but I feel like the height of the toilet can possibly play a large factor, for instance l, your whole life you were used to relaxing your legs at a specific seat height and then you move and the seat prevent you from relaxing your legs? I’m not sure but it was just a thought

[@jennmarie8719]

Thank you for another helpful video! Curiosity, what does it indicate when you have soft stool in the colon/ rectum that just sits there and won't move? I have an elongated sigmoid colon, but I do wonder what else might be happening and why I can't go 😢

[@michellephysio]

@jeanmarie8719 there may be a number of reasons for this for example sometimes the rectum can’t sense the stool , rectocele (prolapse of back wall of vagina) and others too. Pelvic floor physio assessment may help or rectal imaging can be used to determine the cause and then appropriate management instigated . Hope this helps you source some assistance, cheers!

[@cherylxu9227]

Hi Dr. Kenway, Thanks for sharing the techniques! I will try these out. I have a quick question regarding the reason of pelvic floor strain. I had a fall from stairs a couple of years ago and it hurt my tailbone. Would that be a reason to introduce the pelvic floor muscles strain? Thank you!

[@brandonthomasz113]

Hey.. I also fell down some stairs in January and landed on my ass.. I have been suffering from hypertonic pelvic floor since then. My guess was that I was tensing / tight all along but the fall triggered the dysfunction 😢

[@ella-ti6jr]

Please answer, I don't understand how you breathe during this mmm-ooo- tecnique. Is the mm and oo both on the outbreath? Or mm on the inbreath and oo on the outbreath? How do you syncronise breath and this tecnique?

[@user-dy5vm1ww1u]

It's ourbreath

[@mackatz3376]

Michelle, I have IBS C really bad. I don't have PW pain. So will this technique help me poop more easily? Mark in Texas Ty

[@adriennecollett3937]

Have adhesions . And wonder if there’s an help for that kind of issue as it concerns trying to either empty or at least know when the signal to go will give enough time to make it. People on adhesions support groups don’t seem to offer any insight. Hope you can speak to that

[@michellephysio]

@adriennecollett3937 yes this is a difficult issue. Adhesions are a bit like internal scar tissue and they can impact people in different ways depending on where they are located and the extent as well. The principle of not straining and emptying in the manner described in this video really applies to almost everyone. Are you having trouble with urgently needing to empty your bowel too?

[@nwheatcraft]

Used your earlier video for this before. It was helpful. I had, what im guessing, is a very sudden onset of ibsc start with me recently. Under a lot of stress and grieving. Ive been trying to improve my diet and exercise but feel stuck with a bristol1 kind of feces. Taking miralax and prune juice trying to soften but im unsure the water is making its way down to the end where its dry. Not sure what to do...

[@michellephysio]

@nwheatcraft yes sometimes the stool can be really hard in the rectum. Speak with your pharmacist first but sometimes a rectal suppository can help empty the stool in the rectum to allow the softer stool to pass. Remember the suppository needs to go against the wall of the rectum not into the centre of the stool to be effective.

[@Zlata1Z]

The same thing here. Please let me know if you tried a rectal suppository (as per Michelle's recommendation). If yes, what type did you try? Did it work? Stay strong.

[@gsti1985]

I have both stool and urine retention and find doctors not quite understand the issue. Urologists are clueless. I don’t have enlarged prostrate. I’m in my 50’s. I do have a very good BM in the morning. However the residual left (10-20%) from morning gives me hell durning PM hours. I don’t get peristalsis after morning BM and only clue to eject residual stool is urine retention. I go to urinate but I can’t urinate until the residual stool has been removed. I can’t remove the residual stool in one sitting. So PM hours are very tough. Please help.

[@YonkoAcuna]

See a pelvic floor pelvic therapist. Sounds like tight pelvic floor muscles/ pelvic floor dysfunction

[@whitedove6191]

Thank you. Had ostomy reversal surgery six months ago and my bowels are still learning how to process food and poop again. My rectal cancer was very close to my anus so I am missing a lot of tissue in that area and I am either running to the bathroom with urgent stools or I feel constipated and only little by little is released. Sometimes it seems like there are no muscles moving to help push the stool out, other times it seems like there is some strength, so I am on the web seeing how I can gain better toilet habits and sitting correctly and exercises to increase the pressure in the abd. and use the proper methods of pushing. I have screws and rods in my back so staining is hard for me. I am also aiming for that perfect daily BM through diet. I found 3 ounces of prune juice every morning is really helping. Perhaps you could cover such things as post op recovery after a ostomy for 4 months, how to get your bowels to work properly again! I did try the pushing out the side exercise 30 times, got up, changed clothes for bed and had to run back to the bathroom to go! It worked!

[@SkipRoche31]

This was interesting thank you. By the way the second picture of the man, that’s how my little boy sits on the toilet

Michelle, thank you for these great videos. I've been belly breathing and doing the "Moo maneuver" for a few years with good success. Question: as a senior having had a lazy sphincter for years, can anal sphincter tone be revitalized with Kegel type exercises?

[@michellephysio]

@9372463 yes constipation is challenging I understand. First place to start is stool consistency; stool must be soft & well formed for this technique to work. Constipation massage kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXmYqYmgrJ2se9Usi=LXcm6Cco-KlMkW4S is also fantastic for bowel movement. I hope this is helpful 🙏🌻

I sometimes get intense pain up my anus after a bowel motion and frequently after an orgasm. The pain is so intense after an orgasm that I'm relucant to allow myself to climax which is affecting my relationship with my partner. Is there anything I can do to relieve that?

​@@michellephysio thanks Michelle. Your previous videos also helped me a lot where it showed to inhale into belly and exhale. That was a game changer. I hope you come up with videos like these in the future. Also do you think dilation with fingers and massage in the canal will help in general? Thanks!!
