Is Diastasis Recti Fixable?

There is really no clear way as to how exactly a diastasis recti
develops. A diastasis can occur for many reasons. One of the most
common ways a diastasis recti occurs is through pregnancy. This
should not alarm you though. 100% of all pregnant women have a
diastasis recti. This is caused by the stretching of the
abdominals to accommodate the growing uterus. Issues accompanying
a diastasis recti are typically only a concern if your abdominal
muscles have not recentered by about 6 to 12 weeks postpartum.

Due to diastasis recti being more common during and after
pregnancy, many methods of avoiding its development involve
postural awareness, corrective exercises, and a conscious prehab
approach during pregnancy. Yet, there are several things to keep
in mind regardless of whether you are male or female, pregnant or
not.


Understand a good / healthy / functional core strategy 

Practice appropriate breathing patterns

Ensure your abs are free from excess tension

Avoid exercises that increase focalized tension in the
abdomen

Practice good posture



Although diastasis recti is not completely avoidable in some
cases, the list above helps paint a clear picture on how to
protect your core while still staying active. The key is to be
mindful of your body’s function and how to increase your
functionality and build strength without causing harm to your
body.
