Understanding Rib Flare and How to Fix It


Listen Later

Ribs sticking out?

Bras tight, even now that you are back to your pre-baby weight?

It might well be yet another bonus of having children: The infamous rib flare.

In this short and practical episode, Marianne explains:

  • What rib flare actually is, and why it’s not just cosmetic.
  • The three main types of rib flare: Postural, related to changes to the infrasternal angle, and scoliosis-prompted.
  • Why so many women experience a mix of these without knowing it.
  • The hormonal and structural changes in the perinatal period that can lock your ribs into dysfunctional patterns.
  • Why healing rib flare is possible and doesn’t require extreme effort
