Diastasis Recti Broward
Noticing a gap in your abdomen or a ridge forming when you sit up? You might be experiencing Diastasis Recti—a separation of the abdominal muscles that often develops after pregnancy or from repeated core strain. At Theracave in Broward, we specialize in physical therapy treatments that gently strengthen your core, improve posture, and support your body’s natural healing process without invasive procedures.
Diastasis Recti isn’t just a cosmetic concern—it can impact balance, breathing, digestion, and pelvic floor function. While it’s commonly associated with postpartum recovery, it also affects athletes and individuals who lift improperly or frequently. At Theracave, our therapists design personalized movement plans to rebuild deep core stability, helping you move better, feel stronger, and regain confidence in your body.

Q&A
What is Diastasis Recti?
Diastasis Recti is a separation of the rectus abdominis muscles, often caused by excessive intra-abdominal pressure. It’s most common after pregnancy but can occur in anyone with weakened or overstretched core muscles.
Can Diastasis Recti heal on its own?
Mild cases may improve naturally, especially postpartum, but many people benefit from guided physical therapy. Specific core-strengthening exercises are needed to help the muscles close the gap safely and effectively.
Is surgery necessary for Diastasis Recti?
Surgery is typically only considered for severe cases that do not respond to therapy. Most people can achieve excellent results through conservative management, including physical therapy and proper exercise techniques.
How does physical therapy help with Diastasis Recti?
Physical therapy focuses on rebuilding deep core strength, improving posture, teaching correct breathing techniques, and avoiding movements that worsen the separation. It offers a safe, non-invasive path to recovery.
