Heal + Prevent Re-injury For Diastasis & Hernias! #hernia #diastasisrectiexercises #core #mom #fyp

Are you afraid to workout after getting told you have HERNIA or distasis recti?!🙋‍♀️ Don’t worry you aren’t alone! You definitely want to make sure you are doing safe exercise to help you heal and prevent it from worsening (that doesn’t mean rest and do nothing!)⬇️⬇️⬇️ How do you diagnose a hernia?!🤷‍♀️➡️ You can diagnose a hernia with a physical exam, imaging such as an MRI, ultrasound, x-ray (for bowel obstruction), and palpating!✅ What are the best exercises to do to help treat it and prevent it from worsening or needing surgery?!🤷‍♀️⬇️ Answer: Functional core exercises with proper breathing!✅ One of the best ways to protect your belly from hernias and DR is with strengthening the glutes, hip abductors, and deep core muscles which help to stabilize the pelvic floor for pooping, peeing, walking, jumping, squatting, running, coughing, sex, etc. before, during, and after pregnancy‼️ I hear too many moms and doctors say, “Don’t do this or that because you have a hernia or diastasis” BUT I see them incorrectly lifting their baby, holding their breath, and getting in/out of bed❌ The truth is that anyone, at anytime can get injured during ANY exercise so I get why you are scared to exercise with a hernia when you receive a scary diagnosis with no sense of direction!⬇️ That’s why I created The Belly Whisperer Method and my Pregnancy Prep & Postpartum recovery online programs so MAMAS could start healing common injuries like DR, prolapse, hernias, and as so much more from home and recovery safely especially for those that don’t have access to pelvic floor PT near them✅ Just because you have a diagnosis, doesn’t mean you will always be injured or having symptoms!❌ You can HEAL and overcome issues and even eliminate a diagnosis (I see this all the time!) Once you have a hernia it will always be there (different then how a DR heals!!) but you can change the physical appearance (bulge, protruding belly button, etc.) and strengthen core to prevent it from getting worse or needing a surgery!🙌 LINK in BIO to sign up to my Pregnancy Prep & Postpartum Recovery Online Program OR Diastasis Mini Course🔥🔥🔥 -The Belly Whisperer
