BELLY AFTER BABY

Belly After Baby was developed to provide new mothers with a FREE 15-20 minute DRA (Diastasis Rectus Abdominis) screening and brief education session. Simple activities are introduced to retrain and strengthen deep abdominal muscles. Exercise precautions, proper body mechanics and posture are discussed. All participants are given baseline measurements of the distance between the rectus abdominis muscles (performed with a tape measure) to compare and to guide recommendations. Follow up with an appropriate health care provider is recommended if a DRA and/or other health care concerns are suspected. Research has found that DRA and other health care concerns can improve with education and specific exercise.
