Diastasis recti splinting garment
11147705 · 2021-10-19 · ·

A Diastasis Recti Splinting Garment is described which includes a plurality of attached torso straps and pelvic straps which the user wraps around their body and connects to the garment so as to approximate the 2 sides of the abdominal wall, providing support to the linea alba and fascial sheathes to allow for tissue healing. Furthermore, the adjustable angled straps encircle the torso and pelvis of the user to restore the integrity of the core, providing stability to the ribcage, spine and pelvis. Restoring the integrity of the core lends itself to optimal activation of the deep core stabilizers, including the abdominal muscles as well as the musculature of the pelvic floor, back, and diaphragm. This in turn aids in dynamic stability of the spine, ribcage and pelvis. This allows maximum support of the diastasis recti, consequently facilitating tissue healing through balancing intra-abdominal pressure, while still supplying support to the vulnerable pelvic floor and stability to the spine, ribcage and sacroiliac joints.

11135082 · 2021-10-05 · ·

Provided are methods and systems of reducing, treating, and/or preventing back pain in an individual, such as a pregnant or post-partum individual, that include changing the center of gravity of the individual by the methods set forth herein. In particular, the methods herein include shifting the center of gravity in the individual to a desired center of gravity. The methods include applying modifiable lifting forces to a lower abdomen of the individual using a pully system, under the belly of the individual toward the desired center of gravity; and applying one or more vector forces from an anterior side of the individual toward the desired center of gravity. Also provided are methods that include applying a lumbar support, as described herein to an individual. Also provided herein are adjustable, modular lumbar support devices that may be used to provide lumbar and/or belly support for individuals having belly weight to achieve the present methods. According to non-limiting example embodiments, support or brace devices provided herein may be worn by pregnant women at various stages throughout a woman's pregnancy, and/or post-partum and may be adjusted to naturally contour/conform to the woman's anatomy, which changes throughout pregnancy. Further provided are kits that include at least one lumbar support device provided herein, which kits may optionally include instructions for proper application and/or adjustment of the lumbar support device and/or accessories for use with the present methods, systems and/or devices.
