Healing a diastasis without a splint or binder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are often asked whether we recommend using a splint or a binder for diastasis recti. Gentle binding can be beneficial for comfort and stability in the early days or weeks following childbirth. But it will not ‘fix’ a diastasis, and wrapping the abdomen is not a feature of the MUTU System program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To restore stability, strength and aesthetics, correct engagement and function of the entire core and pelvic floor are our focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MUTU System is not designed to deal only with diastasis recti<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

MUTU System<\/a> is a holistic program, aiming to achieve correct alignment and functioning of the entire core. In fact, the entire body. Not just one muscle, or just ‘the gap’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diane Lee<\/a> and Paul Hodges presented research to the Associated Charter of Physiotherapists in Women’s Health Conference in September 2013. They concluded that a whole-body approach, rather than using a splint or binding, is the more anatomically correct approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MUTU System is based on dynamic movement and optimal functioning of your core and pelvic floor in correct alignment. This approach will help you achieve the stability, comfort and freedom from pain you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Correcting diastasis recti is not the sole focus of MUTU System program, but it is one of the results you can expect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To suggest that simply ‘closing the gap’ is the goal, would be doing moms a disservice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
