BENEFITS IN CASE OF MEDICAL NEEDS

Loss of Mobility

Loss of mobility, both temporary and permanent, can be painful, frustrating and often times make it difficult to perform everyday functions that were once very easy, such as going to the bathroom. Partial or total mobility loss may result from conditions such as arthritis, broken bones, Dupuytren’s disease and hernia and rectal surgery. Over 40 thousand Portuguese have some form of arthritis or joint inflammation, often translating to a serious debility that limits movement. The Sanita-Bidé allows people suffering from conditions such as these to regain the comfort and dignity of using the toilet by themselves.

Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids are veins that swell and protrude around the anus. The symptoms may include a painful burning sensation, itching, swelling and even bleeding. As many as 700 thousand Portuguese suffer from hemorrhoids; most of them between the ages of 45 and 65, but over half the population will experience them at some point in their lives. The good news is you can now find hemorrhoid relief without resorting to surgery! The Sanita-Bidé eliminates the need for abrasive toilet paper when using the toilet. The warm water jet and warm air dryer clean and dry the user, providing great relief from symptoms such as tenderness and irritation. Whereas sufferers with traditional toilets often dread going to the bathroom and try to wait as long as possible (causing further complications), Sanita-Bidé owners may actually look forward to using the toilet because it is a pleasant, soothing experience.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Incontinence

Skin care is very important for incontinent patients and those with IBS; however, cleaning with toilet paper or soap can dry and irritate anal tissue. The Sanita-Bidé allows multiple washings without the increased skin abrasion and irritation caused by other methods.

Crohn’s Disease

Crohn’s disease causes inflammation and irritation in various parts of the gastrointestinal tract. With this condition can come a frequent need to use the toilet. The Sanita-Bidé allows complete and gentle cleansing after each bowel movement without harsh, abrasive toilet paper.
