Can children and the elderly use a “natural-position toilet” comfortably and safely?
Early on in life a small child, while eliminating, will instinctively assume the “natural-squat-position”. With a little assistance for a short while, an older child can easily relearn this “natural-squat-position”. Anyone who is still able to assume the “natural-squat-position” can easily learn to use a “natural-position toilet” . Older people whose knees may no longer be as flexible as they once were may need to practice fully flexing their knees for 15 minutes/ day for a few days before they can reach this position again in their lives.
