Summary

This study aims to investigate abdominal muscle recovery in response to KT by using objective method for assessment as digital caliper, and waist circumference. KT technique will include rectus abdominis, internal and external oblique muscles among females after normal vaginal delivery.

Conditions

  • Diastasis Recti

Interventions

OTHER

Kinesiotaping

Technique: Include Rectus Abdominas Muscles (RAM), Oblique Abdominal Muscles (OAM). Tape will be applied on RAM using muscles technique from origin to insertion of muscle with a tension between15-35%. Band will be start on symphysis pubis with no tension and then women make stretch on the abdominal region by deep abdominal inspiration and will end at xyphoid process. Finally will perform on the right and left external oblique muscles the procedure will be start with no tension from bottom and of 6-12 ribs and then the hip will be place in flexion and rotation to opposite direction and the band will tape on pubic bone with tension between 15-35% (Kase et al., 2003).

Abdominal Exercises

Women in group B will receive abdominal muscles exercise (2 sessions/ week) for eight weeks. This program will be applied in both group A and B. The women will repeat the same exercise program on other days as home routine. This program is proposed by Kamel and Yousif, 2017, as based on the literature (Kamel and Yousif, 2017), there is no golden standard exercise program for DRAM. Illustrations of the exercises will be provided, so that the women could repeat the same exercise program on other days as a home routine. All the exercises will be performed while the subject tied a scarf around her abdomen. The following proposed one included sit ups, reverse sit-ups, reverse trunk twists, and U-seat exercises (Fig. 5). Each exercise was repeated 20 times and was increased by four repetitions each week throughout the interventions. In addition, a respiratory rehabilitation maneuver to involve the abdominal muscles, especially the transverse abdominis will be performed.
