If you often find yourself straining, sitting on the toilet for long periods or feeling like you haven't completely emptied your bowels, your toilet posture could be part of the problem.
Our toilet stool is designed to elevate your feet while you're sitting on the toilet, helping to recreate a more natural squatting position. This simple adjustment supports your body's natural anatomy, allowing for a straighter anorectal angle and more relaxed pelvic floor muscles during a bowel movement.
It's an easy addition to your bathroom and one of the first tools I recommend to patients looking to support healthy bowel habits naturally.
Encourages a more natural squatting position while using the toilet
May help reduce straining during bowel movements
Supports more complete bowel emptying
Can help you spend less time on the toilet
Suitable for adults and children
Lightweight, durable and easy to clean
Fits around most standard toilets
This toilet stool may be helpful if you:
Experience constipation or infrequent bowel movements
Often feel like you haven't completely emptied your bowels
Spend a long time sitting on the toilet
Want to support healthy bowel habits naturally
Are looking for a simple, drug-free addition to your gut health routine
Place the toilet stool around the base of your toilet.
When you're ready to use the toilet, rest both feet on the stool so your knees are positioned higher than your hips. Lean forward slightly, relax your abdomen and breathe normally. This posture helps support a more natural position for passing a bowel movement.
As a naturopath, I take a holistic approach to constipation and digestive health. While nutrition, hydration, stress, hormones and the gut microbiome all play an important role, toilet posture is often an overlooked piece of the puzzle.
A toilet stool is a simple, affordable tool that can support the mechanics of a bowel movement and is something I regularly recommend alongside personalised naturopathic care.
Colours: Pine or brown
Material: Wood
Easy to wipe clean
Lightweight and sturdy
Fits most standard toilets
Please note: A toilet stool is designed to support healthy bowel posture. If you experience ongoing constipation, rectal bleeding, unexplained weight loss or persistent changes in bowel habits, it's important to seek assessment from a qualified healthcare practitioner.
