What is Diastasis Recti?
Diastasis Recti Abdominis (DRA), in simple terms, is a midline separation between your right and left abdominal wall muscles that can give the appearance of a “pooch” on your belly.
The abdominal gap is identified by a separation wider than 2.7cm between the rectus abdominis muscles. It appears like a ridge running down the middle of the belly area and is common among women with multiple pregnancies.
The common occurrence begins in the third trimester of pregnancy; however, the condition might continue for some after childbirth.
What causes Diastasis Recti?
Diastasis Recti Symptoms
Diastasis recti (DR) is commonly identified through a stomach bulge and a ridge in the middle of your belly. The ridge can extend from the middle of the belly to the pubic bone area. Most patients suffering from DR will also suffer from compromised posture and back pain.
This breakdown of the abdominal muscle can cause a range of problems, such as weakness in the abdominal wall, hernia, cosmetic defects, and vaginal abstinence. A study by Spitznagle et al found that 66% of patients with DR abdominis were diagnosed of stress urinary incontinence, faecal incontinence, and support pelvic floor dysfunction (SPFD).
You can self assess the abdominal gap through a self-test. Lie flat on the floor with your knees bent and your feet on the floor. Place your fingers at your navel with one hand on your belly.
Press your fingertips gently down to a mini-crunch-like place with your shoulders on the ground. Feel if there’s a two- or three finger wide or greater separation of your rectum abdominal muscles.

Diastasis Recti – One Finger Width
The treatment protocol, or Tesla Former is 6 sessions. For individuals targeting the abdominal gap, the muscle magnetic stimulator will induce 50,000 contractions in 30 minutes, and you will experience strengthening & conditioning in the abdominal region. Over time, muscles produce new muscle tissue (hyperplasia) and enhance existing muscle fibers (hypertrophy), allowing significant improvements.
For patients targeting postpartum treatments, the strengthening of pelvic floor muscles will improve conditions such as urinary incontinence. The improvement of pelvic muscles will improve vaginal tightening & dryness, allowing a better sex drive.
Tesla Former is a non invasive treatment with great clinical studies. This versatile treatment can improve the abdominal gap in just 30 minutes.
What is the cause of Diastasis Recti?
How does diastasis recti happen?
In most pregnancies, abdominal muscle separation will occur, and in most cases, the separation can settle on its own. Diastasis recti, on the other hand, happens when the abdominal muscles remain apart for an extended period of time.
The abdominal gap affects 30% of new mothers and is more common in women who have had several children or who have had heavier babies/twins.
This is attributed to the fact that having a larger stomach allows the connective tissues between your abdominal muscles to expand out further. Your connective tissues get thinner as they are spread further. This makes it more difficult for them to recover.

Diastasis Recti Recovery – Tesla Former
Tesla Former (High Intensity Electro Magnetic ) is the latest and most advanced treatment to treat DR without undergoing surgery. Traditionally, the only two options were either surgery or abdominal exercises such as Pilates. The beauty of Tesla Former technology is that it can provide up to 50,000 muscle contractions in a short 30-minute session. The abdominal muscles can produce new muscle tissue and enhance existing muscle fibers at the same time. There is absolutely no downtime, and it takes 8 sessions to see visible results.
Tummy Tuck / Abdominoplasty Surgery
Surgery for DR requires stitching the left and right abdominal muscles together from the lower chest to the pelvic area. The results from surgery are effective, however, there is always a risk of scars and complications. In terms of cost, surgery would be more expensive and potentially require longer downtime.
Diastasis Recti Exercises
Pilates and abdominal exercises are other great exercises to improve symptoms of abdominal gap. When you do Pilates, you concentrate on stimulating the transverse abdominis, which will help cure the abdominal gap. These DR exercises teach your body to fill the distance on its own rather than requiring surgery. For the best results, it is recommended to combine regular abdominal exercises with Tesla Former.
