Diastasis Recti

Diastasis Recti

A diastasis recti can affect anyone but it is mostly seen on postpartum women. This gap anywhere down the midline of the belly causes the abdominal organs to no longer have the support they need. Learn more about this injury that so often goes untreated and how to start healing.

Pelvic Floor

Pelvic Floor

Pelvic floor issues mostly occur when the pelvic floor muscles are lacking enough tone (hypotonic) or are too “tight” (hypertonic). Some people may experience weak pelvic muscles and core muscles from an early age. Others may not notice problems until after certain stages of life such as pregnancy, childbirth, or menopause.

Postpartum

Postpartum

Pregnancy is the most common contributor to the development of a prolapse. The hormonal changes, physical stress and strain, and the additional weight of your baby can soften the supportive tissues and muscles in your pelvic floor. This can cause your pelvic organs to shift and move from their normal alignment.

Prolapse

Prolapse

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a condition in which one or more pelvic floor organs (bladder, rectum, small bowel, uterus, etc.) move toward or into the vaginal canal. This happens due to the imbalance of the muscles and ligaments supporting the pelvic floor.
