Yueting Wang and colleagues (2023) reported in ‘The effect of myofascial therapy on postpartum rectus abdominis separation, low back and leg pain, pelvic floor dysfunction’ that myofascial therapy has been shown to be effective in reducing postpartum rectus separation, improving pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, and relieving lumbago. It can also decrease abdominal circumference and improve daily living activities. This therapy helps restore correct biomechanics and increase the elasticity and strength of the muscles. Overall, myofascial therapy has a positive therapeutic effect on postpartum dysfunction.
