Sometimes when I suggest to people, you might need pelvic floor PT, a lot of the men are like, wait, what are you talking about?
My wife got that when she gave birth.
That's a different kind of pelvic floor PT or physical therapy than what I'm talking about for constipation.
It affects men and women.
And we sometimes just develop these problems where those sphincters clench instead of relaxing at the critical moment.
And so it's like trying to squeeze toothpaste out of a toothpaste tube, but you never take the cap off.
And sometimes when you can just retrain those muscles, finally it's like taking the cap off that tube.
And suddenly the toothpaste comes flying out.
But the whole issue was never that you needed more water or that you needed to soften the toothpaste.
You just needed to open that door.
Squatting.
You know, if you go to a daycare and you look around at all the kids in their diapers who are potty training and one of them has to poop, what do they do?
They drop the deepest squat you've ever seen in your life.
And they go.
Physiologically, squatting is the correct way to go.
And this comes back to our pelvic floor, which we always underappreciate.
We don't think about.
There is this muscle in our pelvic floor called the puborectalis muscle.
And that muscle forms a sling around our colons, almost like our body stepping on its own hose.
It creates this kink that causes this block.
