Eksperimentel: Pilates exercises
All exercises in the Pilates training group will be performed on a mat in a controlled environment under the supervision of a qualified instructor.
The focus will be on core activation, controlled breathing, and maintaining neutral spine alignment throughout all movements
|
It will be delivered three times per week for four weeks, with each session lasting approximately 25 minutes
|
|
Eksperimentel: Progressive Prone Plank Exercises
Participants will follow a structured progressive prone plank protocol designed to strengthen the core muscles, particularly targeting the transverse abdominus and rectus abdominus, which are crucial in managing Diastasis Recti.
All exercises will be performed under supervision, with emphasis on correct posture, controlled breathing, and spinal alignment
|
It will be delivered three times per week for four weeks, with each session lasting approximately 25 minutes

Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS)
Tidsramme: 4th week
|
The Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is a widely used subjective pain measurement tool.
It was created as a simple way to assess pain severity.
It has a rating range of 0 to 10, with 0 representing no pain, 5 indicating severe discomfort, and 10 denoting the greatest conceivable agony

Manual muscle testing
Tidsramme: 4th week
|
Manual muscle testing (MMT) is a fundamental assessment method used by healthcare professionals to evaluate muscle strength, including the gluteus medius and gluteus maximus.
(34) It has a scoring range from 0 to 5 where 5 shows maximum strength.
It has a reliability range from 0.88 to 0.94.
It also has a good validity with 0.62 to 1.00 range

Finger width method
Tidsramme: 4th week
|
In this patient were asked to lie in a supine position in crook lying.
Patient is instructed to do abdominal crunch till their shoulder is off the couch.
By palpation around the protrusion along the linea alba diastasis recti is assessed with 4.5 cm above and below of umbilical.
In case of less than 2 fingers breadth there is no diastasis recti.
In case of 2 to 3 fingers breadth the diastasis recti is considered mild.
In case of 3 to 4 fingers breadth it is considered as moderate and in case of 4 or more than 4 fingers breadth the diastasis recti is considered severe.
The measurement will be done with the help of a Vernier caliper.
Measurements were taken 4.5 cm above and below the umbilicus during an abdominal crunch, with the caliper placed between the palpated borders of the rectus abdominis.
Three readings were taken at each point, and the average was used for analysis
