This past couple of weeks, I have worked with two clients with chronic back pain, which can make it hard to twist and bend to thoroughly clean yourself after going to the bathroom.

Whoa! I know that’s extremely personal! But it can be devastating and life altering to not be able to clean your private areas. So what did I do for my clients?

I showed them different types of bidet toilet attachments! Bidets clean your private parts with a soft stream of water after you toilet.

Personally, I did not know bidets existed until I was in my late twenties. I’ve seen a bidet in a bathroom in Europe, but I’ve never seen one in the U.S. Side note: I was too scared to use the bidet in Europe even though I knew what it was.

My husband knew I wanted a bidet toilet attachment, so he bought one for my birthday! Oh boy! I celebrate every day with my thoroughly cleaned caboose!

Toilet manufacturers reported an increase in sales in bidets and bidet toilet attachments in America. It’s not hard to see why. The benefits include having your booty gently cleaned compared to the skin irritation that can come with toilet paper or wet wipes. Bidets also cut down on use of toilet paper.

Save the trees and save the butts!

My clients needed their backs saved as well. So I suggested a bidet seat or a hand held bidet. I would not install a separate bidet in a bathroom because that would take up too much space. Plus, try to squat on a bidet when your back is killing you! 

How Bidet Seats help lessen back pain

Bidet seats offer a convenient and hygienic way to clean without the need to move one's back. Equipped with a variety of adjustable settings, these innovative seats provide targeted cleansing with precision and comfort.

The adjustable nozzles are designed to reach all the necessary areas, ensuring thorough cleaning without requiring any physical movement from the user. With the simple touch of a button, the bidet seat delivers a gentle yet effective spray of water, giving users a hands-free cleaning experience that promotes greater hygiene and comfort.

This advanced technology not only simplifies the cleaning process, but also provides a more thorough and refreshing cleanse, all without the need for any strenuous movement.

how Handheld Bidets help lessen back pain

Handheld bidets offer a practical solution for minimizing back movement during the cleaning process. By allowing users to precisely direct the water flow, handheld bidets enable individuals to reach and clean their bottom with minimal twisting or reaching.

This can be particularly beneficial for those with limited mobility or back issues, as it reduces the need to lean or stretch in uncomfortable positions. The ergonomic design and portability of handheld bidets make them a convenient and effective option for promoting proper hygiene while minimizing strain on the back and body.

Handheld bidets can have multiple functions besides personal hygiene like: cleaning the floor, cleaning a bathtub/shower, cleaning a cotton diaper, filling a bucket, watering bathroom plants, filling water balloons. . . The list is endless. Get creative, people!
