Diastasis Recti Repair

Diastisis Recti is a common condition post pregnancy and if it is not assessed early the woman will always have a "mummy tummy" or protruding abdominal wall. Many traditional ab exercises can increase a diastisis so it is imperative that Pilates instructors know why to modify for this condition. Diastasis recti, also known as abdominal separation, is when the right and left sides of the rectus abdominals separate along the linea alba. The abdominals are held together by a thin connective tissue and when your abs stretch during pregnancy they can potentially split. It happens most frequently with multiple gestation, multiple pregnancies, pregnancies that are close together, big babies, women who have very tight abs prior to pregnancy (a six pack) but also women who have very weak abs. The risk of having a diastasis is that it may result in a hernia. Umbilical hernias, a mass/lump directly over the navel, are the most common however a hernia can happen anywhere along the linea alba.
