Waste (fecal) matter moves clockwise through the large bowel (colon). The large bowel for massage sits in your abdomen (belly).

• Travels down left side abdomen to left pelvic bone
• Ends middle lower abdomen at rectum (behind bladder)
• Rectum empties wastes via anus to produce stool.
Step 1. Constipation Massage

Thank you. I try to say moo but land up breathing down.
After about 12 years of problems, things have got easier almost overnight after you doing this Massage thank you so much
I want to thank you for all your help & support with regards to constipation, bowel issues, & inflammation. I'm from Winnipeg, Manitoba,Canada & I hope you continue to air for a very long time. Love you Michelle! ❤
@karenhill7221 hi there Karen, I'm so very happy to hear from you and thank you for your beautiful support. I just had the good fortune to visit Canada (only short stay conference sadly), what wonderfully friendly and welcoming countrymen and women you have! Love your country Karen and I can't speak highly enough of my time there. Thank you for being there Karen and taking the time, please know that I'm sincerely grateful to you ❤
I’ve seen a few of these videos that have left me confused and thinking that I must be doing it wrong. Well that’s because I was doing it wrong. But you have made it look simple and easy to do. Thank you.
@annwestcott3752 my pleasure indeed - so glad this helps you Ann! 🌻
I am counting on you!! Nothing worked you are my only hope!
Hi this is me 2 hours later
God bless you. You are gift from heaven i have had unbearable constipation for the past 3 days
I cant thank you enough :)
Hi Michelle! Thank you for this video. I've been having constipation lately and I am doing my best not to take any laxatives. I just tried this technique for 8 minutes and it actually worked. You're the best!
@user-uc7ft8vk8o You are so welcome! So glad the constipation massage technique worked for you. It's great that you're exploring natural methods for relief. Wishing you continued success in your wellness journey!🙏 💖
You look fabulous Michelle! I love abdominal massage! Thanks as always! Can’t wait to see this and make sure I’m doing it right lol
I LOVE MICHELLE!!!!! I only wish I would have known about POP a LONG time ago and found her videos..especially the Moo to Poo. I even told one of my friends about it and she swears by it now too!! Michelles videos give you so much information and her teaching style is right up my alley. I have learned more from her than the local pelvic health therapists in my town!
@DJ-ec2sb Thank you so much for your kind words of support! I'm really glad the videos, especially 'Moo to Poo,' are beneficial for you and your friend. I wish you all the best for your ongoing management and always love to read your comments/qns, best wishes to you DJ ❤️🌺
I appreciate You and your calm careful caring wise videos and information! I am So happy to see your beautiful self making new videos. Thank you. I am 71 with a rectocele that has restricted my life and am so grateful for you 🙏🏼🌹💗
@janekasdan3050 Hi Jane, really lovely to receive your comment, thank you so very much for taking the time. Yes rectocele can be so limiting can't it, I usually use the osmotics (eg Miralax) but not too much so as to make the stool top soft so getting right stool consistency is a big factor for management. These can be taken long-term without issue for most people. Active magnesium powder/tabs is also great. Then abdo massage as shown here and finally the moo to poo technique to avoid straining when you have the right stool consistency, you've probably seen it Jane, takes practice and self reminder (myself included) ua-cam.com/video/QDk93cvZAuk/v-deo.htmlsi=ApXMu4GnzdezdRD8 please stay in touch Jane, your questions, comments always most welcome 💗🌹💗
Love your videos Michelle! Keep up the great work :)

This worked immediately bowel wasnt moving even with laxative but this massage did it in 2 mins 🙏 thanks alot
@Vote.for.justice Thanks so much 🙏 for your feedback! So glad this helped you. Appreciate you letting me know.❤️
I find doing abdominal fascia skin rolling technique(grabbing a pinchful between your fingers and thumb of your skin on your abdomen and rolling them through your fingers until you feel a crunching sensation and working your way up and down until you have done this to all your abdomen muscles) first before doing abdominal massage helps make it easier for your hand to slide over your abdomen for steps 1 and 3. Only takes an additional like 20-30 seconds. Certainly helps me cause my abs/pelvic floor are always in a knot.
Thanks a lot for such health talk.
@stellapenero5454 my pleasure! Happy to help. ❤️
This worked immediately!!! Thank you so much! Truly made me feel a lot better👏🙏
@user-le6rp2ex5x My pleasure - thanks so much for your feedback and I'm so glad to know this helps ❤️
The video was very helpful. I just had back surgery but it was done through the anterior view. I sometimes have problems with a “sleeping bowel” after surgery due to anesthesia and pain medication. I sure do hope the yoga works . Thank you for sharing.
@robinmueller8758 yes I hear you! This is a great way to get things moving, hope it owrks well for you Robin! ❤🩹

PEACE&LUV
Thank you so much❤❤❤
@RuanLaVerne hope this helps you Ruan and thank you 🙏💕
Hi, do you think it's okay to do this massage after hip replacement surgery. Maybe just go easy on the right side since it was right hip? Thank you for any guidance.
Can I do this 21 days postop radical hysterectomy/appendectomy. Your Moo to Poo technique helps tremendously.
I love your videos, Michelle! ❤❤❤ Moo to Poo really does work!
@DJ-ec2sb thank you so much for this beautiful comment and support - much appreciated. ❤️🌺
@@michellephysio are so welcome. I forgot I had commented and I just commented again, lol That's how much faith I have in your videos!
@@DJ-ec2sb in this case I’ll reply again, thank you for your faith & support, agree moo to poo & constipation massage do work - particularly well when the stool is soft & well formed. Sincerely hope these help your life 💕
Good morning from your friend in Idaho. Thank you again for more valuable information, well presented, with a lovely smile. A couple years back I had a surgical repair for a traumatic shoulder injury. The narcotic pain relievers caused me some issues with this. The only advice I was able to find at the time was to use stool softeners, and other things such as that, and to drink lots of water. This could have been very helpful then, and I will certainly remember this technique if ever I have this problem again.
Again thank you for ALL that you do. I know I have said it before, but, you are very much appreciated. K
@99jeepxjguy97 het there K, lovely friend in Idaho, always great to hear from you and read your wonderful insightful comments. Yes agreed, I've experienced this too in the past as have many of my patients suffering chronic pain on opoids or pain relieving meds that cause constipation. Often no preemptive info supplied on the effect of these meds on bowel motility and hence constipation often making individual suffering worse. I'm glad you got through your injury OK, and I hope knowing this technique is of perhaps of some benefit for you or those in your care in future. I know I've said this before too K, I really sincerely appreciate your comments and support, hearing from you and ressuring me that this is in fact potentially helpful in your life is what matters most🙏💞
@@michellephysio 😍😇
Thanks so much for this, will give it a faithful try, chemo constipation has been so (SO) (soooo) rough 😢
@coldsilence2 you're welcome! I do hope this helps you. 🙏
What about defecatory disfunction ?
Unrelated, but do you have massages / exercises that could helpf stop grinding your teeth at night?
Thank you so much this a worked for me god bless you
@melissadiaz9697 You're welcome! So glad this helped. Thanks for the feedback and support. ❤️
Is it safe to do during pregnancy?
I am compacted i can feel the hard lumps in my bowles. With your masage the hard balls break loos and then i have to remove them with my fingure. Three days only small bits come away. Pain in
After a terribly botched appendicectomy I have been struggling for yrs to find comfort on my bad days. I usually try a warm compress or a hot bath for stimulation. This was very very helpful . I’m going to try this with olive oil once a week.
@RolloVasquezTV sounds as though you've had a tough time I really hope this technique provides you with relief & makes the bad days more bearable ☀
☀ let me know how you go if you have time 🙏
Hi Michelle idk if its a good idea to sleep after i just took a poop like that and i even took a laxative before i pooped so is it a good idea to try to get some sleep
Yes that is fine! Sleep won’t harm your stomach. Just make sure you hydrate before you go to bed!
Misel Kako si damo?
I cant stop laughing to myself doing this exercise
Get on with it
I have alot of belly fat is there a modification needed for me?
No ones replied to you either huh 😞
I got the same problem and question
Is it OK to do it next to your hip bone or should you stop at the top of the hip bone
@naturegirl4074 hi there gorgeous woman, great question ... I suggest stop at the top of the left hip bone for 2 reasons: 1. the large bowel doesn't travel horizontally across lower abdomen so no real benefit 2. I prefer not to apply pressure over the low abdomen, why? again good question, simply not comfortable for many to apply pressure directly over the bladder/lower abdo pelvic organs that sit in the low pelvis. Only on the last step down to the midline low abdome diteting the stool towards rectum. I hope this answers, I haven't read not to do this so my perosnal reasonings only, let me know what you think too ...
I'm glad I came across this. Sure. We'd like to ask a couple of questions. Don't don't do if comments are still being reviewed... I recently had his direct to me and Bladder. Lift and have been extremely constipated since. Going on 8 weeks now... My abdomen is tender from the 4 entry holes.... If you wouldn't mind speaking to me, I couldn't send you my email.
@kristykeers7491 our email is support@pelvicexercises.com.au - also Movicol or polyethlene glycol works a treat (Osmolax), need to increase H20 - just check with your pharmacist too prior to taking 🌻
I like to do it around my large intestine about 5 mins and my small intestines for 5 mins. Is that not ok to do the small intestines?
Hey there @naturegirl4074 I think it's most helpful to keep the massage to the large intestines (at this stage at least until more research is perfomed)- shift this area and the contents of the small intestines will then have room to move and hence promote motiltiy that way, sort of like clearing the end section of a long pipe if that makes sense?
@@michellephysio absolutely! Thanks! 🌹
What if your pregnant?
Note : it actually worked
@x._3347 so glad this worked for you. Thanks so much for letting me know.❤️
Does this apply for larger individuals?
LMAO no

This started after norivirus. I have hypothyroidism and menopausal hotflashes. I am losing hope.
I have a lot of hardness on the right side
@naturegirl4074 this is the ascending colon (large bowel) region. I'll preface by saying always check with your doctor re abdo hard areas. Having said this, if it's a constipation issue, extra focus on step 2 circular on that R side and then shift it up and across to the L side with step 3. Keep me posted if you have time, love to hear from you and how this works for you 🙏
@@michellephysio thanks! I did it this morning. Had some gurgling but no more BM yet. I didn’t eat much yesterday. I think I’ll have to go soon though lol
Can I do this 21 days postop radical hysterectomy/appendectomy? Your Moo to Poo technique helps tremendously.
@user-fj4fz1zq4x hello there, avoid abdominal massage after abdominal/pelvic surgery. Post op bowel management usually involves Moo to Poo (as you already know 😊), keeping the stool soft and well formed usually through use of osmotic laxatives such as Movicol ( polyethylene glycol) check with your doctor/pharmacist first, mobilising (ie walking as prescribed post op) and avoiding fibre overload see here ua-cam.com/video/VESQbm8SGpI/v-deo.htmlsi=cFxfkKMERPW9geNC Wishing you all the very best for your recovery! 💕
