Summary

This study looks at how diastasis recti abdominis (a separation of the belly muscles) relates to spine curvature in women who recently gave birth. Researchers will measure spine angles in 110 women aged 21-35, both with and without the condition, using safe, non-invasive methods. The goal is to better understand how this common postpartum issue may affect posture and back health.
