While the Ab Tank and Wrap are ideally designed for use in the first 8 weeks postpartum it may be helpful for women with really weak connective tissue or a large separation.
Wearing a wrap beyond the 8 weeks is recommended for women who have been advised by their women’s health physiotherapist that their connective tissue is very weak or that they have a non-functional diastasis.
It is also appropriate for women who are awaiting surgery to fix their diastasis.
The condition of the connective tissue and the need for surgery should be determined by a women’s health physiotherapist rather than self-evaluation.
We recommend seeing one of our trainers and pelvic floor physiotherapists to help determine if the AB Tank and Wrap is right for you.
