Choosing the right physiotherapist for treating diastasis recti (DRAM) is important for effective recovery.
Here are 9 key factors to consider when making your choice
1) Skill Set, Experience and Qualifications
Look for a women’s health physiotherapist who specialises in pelvic health and recovery from diastasis recti. Ensuring they have years of specific training and Internationally recognised Certifications in this area. At PhysioMatters we have over 35 years combined experience and have provided education sessions at an international level in this area!
2) Approach and Philosophy
Different physiotherapists may have different approaches to abdominal separation treatment. Some might focus on manual therapy and exercises, while others might incorporate education on body mechanics and posture. Choose someone whose approach aligns with your preferences and needs. And preferentially who has knowledge in all the above – we do!
3) Patient Reviews and Referrals
Look for our Google reviews from other patients who have undergone treatment for diastasis recti. Personal referrals from friends, family, or your primary care doctor can also be valuable.
Customer's Review
"Danielle is amazing at what she does. She didn’t just examine me thoroughly, but patiently and passionately explained so many things to me about my pelvic bowl and my muscle tone that I had neglected after having my children. Did you know that there aren’t many physics who are certified in using an ultrasound? Well Danielle IS! And that gives you so much insight into what’s going on beneath the skin…Mamas, if you want insights to your questions about diastisis recti or if you have any doubts about how your pelvic health is doing, I strongly recommend seeing Danielle! Thank you love for such an insightful consult! I learned so much!"
