Jan 11, 2024

Introduction

Welcome to Hello Physio, the premier destination in Singapore for diastasis recti treatment. Our team of highly skilled professionals specializes in health & medical, sports medicine, and physical therapy, providing top-notch care to our valued patients.

Understanding Diastasis Recti

Diastasis recti is a common condition that occurs when the abdominal muscles separate during pregnancy or due to excessive strain on the abdomen. It can lead to a protruding belly, weakened core, and potential health complications if left untreated.

Diagnosis and Assessment

At Hello Physio, our experienced therapists conduct thorough assessments to accurately diagnose the severity of diastasis recti. Through a combination of physical examinations and specialized tests, we determine the extent of muscle separation and develop personalized treatment plans.

Treatment Options

1. Targeted Rehabilitation Exercises

Our physical therapy sessions focus on strengthening the weakened abdominal muscles through targeted exercises. Our therapists guide you through a variety of movements specifically designed to close the gap and restore core strength.

2. Manual Therapy Techniques

In addition to exercises, our skilled therapists may utilize manual therapy techniques to enhance the effectiveness of your diastasis recti treatment. These hands-on techniques help release tension, improve muscle alignment, and promote faster healing.

3. Nutritional Guidance

As part of our holistic approach, our team provides personalized nutritional guidance to support your healing journey. A well-balanced diet filled with essential nutrients helps optimize tissue repair and aids in overall recovery.

4. Supportive Garments

We also offer recommendations and fittings for supportive garments that can help provide additional support to the abdominal area during daily activities and exercise. These garments offer gentle compression and promote proper muscle alignment.

Prevention Tips

While diastasis recti cannot always be completely prevented, there are steps you can take to minimize the risk. Here are some helpful tips:

  • Practice proper posture during pregnancy and postpartum
  • Engage in exercises that strengthen the core muscles
  • Avoid heavy lifting without proper support
  • Listen to your body and adjust activities accordingly
