Learning time!!!!

Diastasis recti Andominis is a common condition in pregnant and postpartum people. It occurs when the re**us abdominis muscles separate during pregnancy from being stretched.

The increased gap between the right and left re**us abdominal muscles is created by the stretching of the linea alba, a connective collagen sheath created by the aponeurosis insertions of transverse abdominus,internal and external oblique.

If the separation persists months after your delivery it can cause recurrent lowback or mid back pain .You might not be able to activate your abdominal muscles while trying to do lifting or carrying which could result in low back injury.

Pelvic floor Physiotherapists are trained to diagnose and treat DRA and help you train to engage your core effectively.If you are planning to return to your workout routine postpartum it's important thay you have a check with Pelvicfloor Physiotherapist to avoid possible injuries .

Stress incontinence is not something you should have to live with for the rest of your life. It could be happening due to 2 reasons.

● your pelvicfloor muscles are overly tight

● you lack strength in your pelvicfloor muscles

The main function of pelvicfloor muscles are to squeeze and relax so that you can control your bladder and bowel functions. When that doesn't function properly you find yourself leaking while doing strenuous activities.

Pelvicfloor rehabilitation can help you manage your symptoms better.

Have you been experiencing deep gluteal pain? Have you been experiencing sharp shooting pain down to your thighs from time to time? Does the pain worsen when you sit down or try to slouch ?You might be suffering from pudendal neuralgia..

The pudendal nerve runs from the back of the pelvis to near the base of your p***s or va**na, where it branches off into other nerves.

There are several things that could harm the pudendal nerve.

It can happen when you’re injured, have surgery, or give birth. And sometimes, certain types of exercise, like spending a lot of time on a bicycle, can cause the damage.

Pelvic floor Rehabilitation can help stretch and relax the deep pelvicfloor muscles to release tension on pudendal nerve and ease your symptoms..

Do you ever feel pressure in your va**na with prolonged standing or while lifting moderately heavy things?

Do you have feeling of incomplete emptying after you go to the washroom or do you dribble after you get up from toilet?

You might be dealing with an organ prolapse(bladder,uterus or rectum).This can happen after childbirth or if you have weak pelvicfloor muscles.Please consult with a physiotherapist who has special interest in pelvic floor before symptoms worsen..
