Umbilical Hernia? Think Twice Before Going Under The Knife!

TLDR: An umbilical hernia is often a side effect of diastasis recti. If you are not experiencing pain, surgery may not be your best first step. The Tupler Technique® can help treat the underlying diastasis recti and prepare your core — giving you a non-surgical path to healing before going under the knife.

An umbilical hernia is a side effect of diastasis recti. The Tupler Technique® is a program for treatment of diastasis recti and if you are having abdominal surgery you need to prepare for it. If you are not having pain with your umbilical hernia it is always best to wait to do the surgery by doing the program.
