Brief Summary:
the aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of ultrasound cavitation on static and dynamic balance in obese postnatal women with diastasis recti
Detailed Description:
Rectus diastasis defined as the widening of the linea alba by more than 2 cm at the midline. A great proportion of pregnant women are complaining from rectus diastasis during pregnancy reaching 100% of all women that may continue for years after delivery in 66% of women, and do not return to the first state automatically. This occurs due to a combination of physiologic, hormonal and mechanical factors, leading to reduction of abdominal muscle functional strength, increased low back pain out of increased lumbar hyperlordosis and postural instability, which may seriously disable woman from taking care of her baby, perform her daily activities. Weight gain is one of the predisposing factors that increases the possibility of developing rectus diastasis postpartum. Being obese increases liability to have rectus diastasis as carrying excess abdominal fats puts greater pressure against linea alba and can develop or aggravate symptoms for both men and women. This massively displaces the center of gravity anteriorly, disturbs body balance, increases joint loads and influences negatively pelvis posture leading to increased anterior pelvic tilt with subsequent exaggerated lumbar hyperlordosis. Ultrasound cavitation is the most revolutionary method that destroys excess body fat through creating microbubbles and releasing energy that breaks down fat cells. This trial has two groups: one will be treated by low caloric diet regimen only and the second one will be treated by ultrasound cavitation in addition to low caloric diet regimen for eight weeks
