Is It Too Late to Fix My Diastasis Recti
January 16, 2020
No, it’s never too late!
Note: Diastasis Recti = abdominal separation at the midline of your six-pack muscles
We get this question a lot from women who have just recently discovered prenatal/postpartum physical therapy but are several years postpartum (” I wish I knew about you when I was pregnant!”). Many women suffer from lingering, chronic issues for years after their pregnancies including:
- Core weakness
- Low back pain
- Urinary incontinence
- Organ prolapse
These symptoms can be resolved through exercise! We can assess diastasis recti and prescribe an INDIVIDUALIZED treatment program to help strengthen your deep core muscles. We look at your strategy for breathing, posture and alignment with static and most importantly, dynamic functional activities. Treating diastasis shouldn’t be a cookie cutter approach and every mama’s program should be tailored to her needs!
If you think you have a diastasis that needs to be looked at or if you are experiencing other symptoms stated above, you can book a 15-Minute Phone Consult with us! We can help you determine the best course of action to address your symptoms and get you back to doing what you love.
