Idea

Up to 24% of the general population suffer from chronic or re-occurring constipation, especially neurogenic patients (up to 80%) and the elderly (up to 60%).
Current solutions are either pharmacological or invasive, have side effects and leave patients and professionals unsatisfied.

MOWOOT is a novel, purely physical, non-drug, non-invasive solution to constipation in the form of a CE-certified class IIa medical device.

With only 10-20 minutes of daily treatment MOWOOT generates an exo-peristaltic effect that moves the faeces and solves constipation in a natural way. Clinically proven.
