Are you a tense person? Have you been told you are tight or hold your stress in certain muscles? Did you know this tension can affect your breathing and pelvic floor function ... Many women and men hold a lot of tension in their abdominals and pelvic floor. This happens for many different reasons: - we try to hold in our bellies - we guard our muscles due to chronic pain - we have developed dysfunctional breathing patterns To avoid this tension and dysfunction, it is important to DEEP BELLY BREATHE to make our diaphragm and pelvic floor work together. This deep breath actually STRETCHES our pelvic floor muscles and helps them function properly . Any questions?

Doming or bulging in your abdomen Think you make have diastasis recti WHAT IS diastasis recti Diastasis recti or commonly referred to as a belly gap is a separation of the left and right rectus abdominus muscle. ... It commonly occurs in women post-partum and those with multiple pregnancies, twins, or a long pushing stage have an increased risk. Diastasis, however, may happen in men as well and may occur as a result of chronic constipation, overuse of abdominal muscles, or abdominal surgery. If you suspect that you may have a diastasis recti or would like to be assessed, see a Pelvic Health Physiotherapist. Like many other muscular dysfunctions, with certain training and exercises, this gap can be minimized.

Pre or post-partum Pelvic health physiotherapy is indicated for many different issues, especially when the pelvic floor muscles are dysfunctional or have been damaged. This is EXTREMELY common for post-partum moms. ... Pregnancy and birth both cause a multitude of changes to a womans body: our center of gravity shifts, we gain weight rapidly, ligaments become more lax, our tissues and body structures expand, and our pelvic floor muscles go through injury and trauma to give birth to a not so tiny human (to name a few)! Rehabbing these muscles is imperative to regain a healthy core and to prevent dysfunction of the pelvic floor and surrounding body structures Read this article for more information regarding Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy post-partum

THIS shows the importance of proper scar work and mobilization after c-section or ANY abdominal surgery. Scar tissue post-surgery can pull on surrounding structures and cause tension and pain in nearby muscles, tendons, ligaments, and even organs. This is another reason why post-partum moms and women after abdominal surgery need continued care.
