A C-section pooch or shelf can be influenced by loose skin, scar tethering, connective-tissue changes, diastasis, and changes in abdominal-wall function after pregnancy + surgery. In other words: it’s not necessarily just “fat you need to lose.” That’s why in Ab Rehab, we address the pieces we can influence: scar and tissue mobility, lymphatic support, progressive core strengthening, pressure management, movement mechanics, and scar recovery/remodeling through direct + indirect protocols. Research supports progressive abdominal rehabilitation postpartum, while newer evidence also supports appropriately timed scar-focused rehabilitation after C-section. You don’t just have to accept, “that’s what happens after a C-section.” There’s so much more to C-section recovery than simply waiting for your incision to heal. @Natal #abrehab #csectionrecovery
