Are you noticing a gap or bulge in your abdomen after childbirth? You may be experiencing Diastasis Recti — a common yet often overlooked postpartum condition. At Elite Advance Physiotherapy and Women’s Clinic, Chennai, we offer personalized and safe diastasis recti therapy to help rebuild your core and restore confidence.
What is Diastasis Recti?
Diastasis Recti is the separation of the abdominal muscles (rectus abdominis) along the midline, typically due to pregnancy, improper workouts, or excessive pressure. It can lead to a visible belly bulge, weak core, back pain, and poor posture.
Common Symptoms of Diastasis Recti
- Visible abdominal bulge or “doming”
- Weakness in core muscles
- Lower back pain
- Postural issues
- Pelvic floor dysfunction
- Difficulty lifting or performing daily tasks
Causes of Diastasis Recti
- Pregnancy (especially twins or multiples)
- Lifting heavy weights improperly
- Sudden weight gain or obesity
- Weak abdominal or pelvic floor muscles
- Incorrect postnatal workouts like crunches or planks
Why Should You Treat Diastasis Recti?
Ignoring this condition can lead to chronic pain, core instability, hernias, or pelvic issues. With the right care, you can:
- Restore abdominal strength and core function
