Abstract

Abdominal diastasis is a condition that occurs when the rectus abdominis muscles separate, leading to weakness in the abdominal wall and can manifest as a bulge in the middle abdomen. Abdominal diastasis is a common condition that can generate annoying symptoms and affect the quality of life of those who suffer from it. Management of abdominal diastasis can include a variety of therapeutic approaches, from conservative management with specific exercises and manual therapy, to surgery in more severe cases.
