Diastasis Rehab Cream & Tape Package

This cream is made in the US. It is natural with no parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, mineral oil or SLS.

After bathing, thoroughly dry your skin and apply the cream to the connective tissue joining your outermost abdominal muscles from the bottom of your sternum to your pubic bone. Do not put in your belly button. While doing the Tupler Technique® Program it is important to keep your belly button clean and dry. Allow the cream to absorb before putting your splint back on.

The skin on your belly is very sensitive so it is recommended to prepare your skin the first four weeks of the Tupler Technique® Program with this cream before starting the Together Tape™.

This cream can also be used on your face and body as a lotion to nourish your skin and after shaving to soothe your skin.

The purpose of the TogetherTape™ is to provide a communication between the skin and connective tissue to come together. The tape works in conjunction with the Diastasis Rehab Splint® to speed up the process for closing your diastasis recti. If for some reason you cannot wear the Diastasis Rehab Splint®, you can wear the tape by itself. Working in a similar fashion to a Butterfly Band-Aid, the tape works to bring together the muscles and connective tissue closer together.

When the tape is stretched before it is applied on the skin, the tape wants to recoil back to its original “unstretched” position. This continuous recoiling process on the skin sends a message from the skin to the connective tissue and muscles to move in the same direction as the tape is moving. The skin on your belly is very sensitive. It is therefore recommended not starting to use the tape until Week 4 of the Tupler Technique® Program. During this time, you should prepare your skin with our nourishing Corrective Connective Tissue Cream.

Because of this sensitivity, we start out slow with the amount of tape used on the skin. During the first week you only use one piece above and one piece below your belly button. If you have an allergic reaction stop using the tape and wait a week. Use the Corrective Connective Tissue Cream during this time. Usually after a week your skin will be desensitized and you can start again. If all goes well after the first week, you can put two pieces above and two pieces below your belly button. With no skin reactions, progressing in week 3 to three pieces above and three pieces below your belly button. Continue with three pieces above and three pieces below for as long as you continue to use the TogetherTape™.One application should last you anywhere between 4-6 days. Between applications allow the skin for rest for one day before applying the tape again. This is a great time to use the Corrective Connective Tissue Cream. The tape is water resistant but not water proof so keep it as dry as you can when showering.

Instructions for applying tape.Take the paper backing off the middle piece of the tape as shown in the video on this page. You need to pull each end of the tape to separate the middle piece from the ends. Hold each end in each of your hands. Now stretch the tape just a little and place on your belly. Place it ¼ inch above your belly button. Smooth it over with your hand. Then take the paper off the end pieces. They should not be stretched. Do the same ¼ inch under your belly button. If you stretch it too much it will be too harsh on your skin because this increases the recoiling process.So remember to just stretch it a little.

Sizing for TogetherTape™.Sizing for the tape is determined by the size of your diastasis.You check your diastasis in three places. The size may be different in these three locations. The size is determined by the location wherever it is the largest.

Medium: Diastasis between 4 and 6 fingers (6 to 8 centimeters)

Large: Diastasis 7 fingers (9 centimeters) or larger

Product Reviews:

“I started using the TogetherTape™ in the 4th week of the Tupler Technique® Program. After three weeks of using it when I went in for my session, my diastasis was smaller and my connective tissue felt shallower. I hardly notice it and I feel it is really helping.” Stephanie McManus

“Julie explained to me the importance of mobilizing my C-section scar in closing my diastasis, so I started using the TogetherTape™. This was perfect for me because I was uncomfortable touching it. After just a few weeks, I could see that my scar was much more mobile. Mobilizing my scar also got rid of my “muffin top.” Mary Rich

"I am very picky about moisturizer, have skin that easily breaks out and have used high end face creams like La Mer and Laura Mercier. I've been using this cream on my belly and face and have had no break outs. I like this product as much as the highest end creams I've tried. The texture and scent are lovely." Bonnie Cornburg

“Besides using it on my belly to nourish my weak connective tissue, I also use it on my face and my legs after shaving. It is very soothing and I love the way it smells. I even used it on my sunburn because there is aloe vera in it and it took the pain right away. I love it!” Sue Primer
