Still Can’t Flatten Your Belly No Matter How Much You Work Out?

It might not be fat — it could be Diastasis Recti, also known as abdominal muscle separation.
Common among postpartum women, office workers, and people with poor posture,
this condition causes your belly to look “bulged” or soft, even after exercise.

If untreated, it may lead to lower back pain, weak core, or even urinary leakage.

🩺 Quick 1-Minute Self-Test for Diastasis Recti

✅ Upper Abdomen Test:

• Lie on your back with knees bent, feet on the floor.

• Slightly lift your head and use your fingers to feel above and below the navel.

✅ Lower Abdomen Test:

• Lift your legs slightly and feel the midline again.

• If you can fit 1–2 fingers, it’s mild;
  if 3 or more, you may need targeted rehabilitation.

❌ Avoid traditional sit-ups — they can make it worse!

💬 From Kayla Lee

“Many mothers think their belly won’t go away after delivery because of fat —
but often, it’s muscle separation.
Through acupuncture and TCM-based core recovery, we help realign the body from within,
improving not just shape, but long-term strength and confidence.”

— Dr. Kayla Lee, Registered TCM Practitioner (MOH Malaysia)
