Have you been diagnosed with a diastasis recti(DR) w/o understanding what it is or how to treat it?!🙋♀️
Don’t worry! You aren’t alone! It’s never too late to start healing it b/c most get worse overtime especially after multiple pregnancies and if you hope it gets better with rest/time!⬇️
DR is the separation of the rectus abdominus muscle along the midline of the abdomen at the linea alba. The linea alba is the midline of the abdomen which is made up of connective tissue that weakens or stretches out resulting in this separation due to inc. intra-abdominal pressure❌
DR is common in pregnant and postpartum individuals due to a growing belly, increased pressure in the abdomen, and the demands of labor and lifting/taking care of a newborn !⬇️
You will typically see doming” or “coning” which can be seen during pregnancy or after delivery. It’s also common to see an “indentation”⬇️
BUT pregnancy and delivery are not the only cause of a DR! It’s also prevalent in people that do heavy weight lifting activities, have rapid weight gain, abdominal weakness, and/or after abdominopelvic surgery‼️
It’s important to breathe properly, activate core correctly, and have good body mechanics with heavy lifting and activities of daily living to prevent DR and manage it so it doesn’t get worse❌
After the line alba separates, soft tissue restrictions or adhesions can form and inhibit the rectus abdominus from coming together again! It’s critical to approximate or bring the linea alba to midline to avoid lumbopelvic dysfunction and pain❌
Taping is a great tool for DR! It can be used for pregnant people and non pregnant people!🙌
