84. Diastasis: Do we need to close the gap? With Munira Hudani


Listen Later

In this episode I sit down with fellow pelvic health physiotherapist and leader in the field of diastasis, Munira Hudani to discuss:

  • The increasing awareness around the topic of diastasis rectus abdominis and the confusion that comes with it
  • Conflicting messaging ranging from “be careful, you shouldn’t do those exercises” to “all exercises are good exercises”
  • Trends in messaging and how these have changed over time
  • What the research is telling us
  • The importance of ‘zooming out’ to figure out what is important to the patient
  • Ways to meet patients where they are at
  • How physiotherapy can help and how it cannot
  • How important is the gap?

NOTE: I would encourage you to listen to episode 4 before this one as it includes more detailed information on what diastasis erctus abdomens is, why it happens and considerations during pregnancy and postpartum.

Listen to episode 4

Munira Hudani is a postpartum physiotherapist who helps people with Diastasis Rectus Abdominis rebuild core strength after having a baby through online programs. As a trusted leader in field, it is her mission to create clarity amongst all the confusion so that more moms with diastasis and core weakness can finally begin to feel strong again.
