UPDATE - Now registering for our FEB 2014 St Louis workshop

 BABY UPDATE!  Baby Boy arrived on Christmas Eve! Many days later than our expected date of Dec 17th, but he came on his own time. He was 7lbs 5 oz, my smallest baby! He already was up to 9 lbs at three weeks, so he didn't stay small for long!  He jumped from drowning in newborn jammies at his 6 lbs 13 oz at his 3 day check to barely fitting 3 month jammies! Our girls never grew that fast!

NOTE:  CLASS TIMES HAVE CHANGED! Please take a look!

How to check myself for diastasis recti.

Do I have diastasis recti?

How to check yourself for a diastasis

Width: (measured in fingerwidths wide)

Lie flat on your back with your knees bent and place your middle three fingers in/on your belly button. Let your fingers point towards your toes.

Relax the ab muscles and, slightly lift your head. If you tighten your abs, you will get a false reading.  Also the muscles will get closer together the higher you lift your head. 
To get a more accurate reading, it is important to measure when you first start feeling the muscles coming together.  You might have to come up and down a few times so you can feel how the muscles work.

If you don’t feel the two ridges of the muscles with 3 fingers you may have to put more fingers in (or you may be flexing the abs - relax them).  Two hands may be required to measure if the diastasis is very large.

Try this before reading on.

Additional Details:  

Length:  

Your diastasis may be worse above the belly button or below, so you may want to check a few inches above or below to see how long the diastasis is.

Depth:

 the depth of your diastasis tells you a little about the condition of the connective tissue. The deeper the fingers can go in the gap, the poorer your connective tissue and more severe the diastasis.  For some people, even a 1 to 2 finger gap can be significant for them IF their gap is deep.

For some, a deep gap can take much longer to heal, for others it can still heal quickly. Connective tissue healing can be dependent on many factors, including nutrition, stress (hormones), genetics  ect.  The Tupler technique will provide the best physical conditions possible give the connective tissue a chance to heal.

I am located in Moscow Mills, MO (45 min west of St Louis) and would be happy to check you for diastasis if you would like an experienced opinion! Please contact me to set something up. Normally I charge $25 for a 15 belly check/consultation, but the whole month of September, it will be complimentary!!

Client after 4 weeks April 29th, 2014

Here are some before and after pics from my last class!  These changes happened in 4 weeks time. I instructed each person to RELAX there belly in each photo.  You can see the extreme difference in their muscle tone and how their muscles are so much more supportive of their organs after doing the TuplerTechnique for four weeks and healing their separated connective tissue.  Even the belly button looks sooo different!

1 Last D.C. Baltimore area workshop - Reclaim Your Core is moving!

In some ways I cannot imagine living anywhere else! I have loved living in Maryland.  Did I ever think I would live here? No. Do I love every minute of it? Yes. I cannot explain the amazing neighbors I have, all of the members of my church who help and support me and live within walking distance! I can't say enough about all of the beautiful rolling hills and old farms and trees where we live.  I have met so many wonderful people.  I have worked with so many amazing mothers, so willing to give so much of their-selves to have children and raise, nurture and love them.  If I can help them put a piece of the puzzle together for them by teaching them to use their inner abdominals and regain core strength, flattening there tummies again and relieve some back pain, perhaps help their digestive issues and help them re-connect with their core, then I am extremely happy. I want to make those who have given so much of their selves to have children more whole again.  I would be ungrateful to my Savior if I did not thank him for the opportunity to do what I love for a living. Why am I so reflective?? Did I mention we are MOVING!!!
Our East Coast chapter is coming to a close. We are moving to our roots in the midwest, St Louis area.

As a result, I have to combine my Baltimore and Chantilly  May workshops with my Columbia, MD one.
