About the treatment
Supporting Your Body After Birth
Pregnancy and birth can change abdominal muscle activation, posture, core strength, and confidence in movement. Tone Postnatal Recovery is designed to support selected clients with gentle, non-invasive muscle stimulation as part of a considered postnatal recovery pathway.
Treatment is planned around your recovery stage and is not used as a medical treatment for pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, or significant diastasis recti. Medical or physiotherapy clearance may be required before treatment begins.
Understanding the concern
What Is Diastasis Recti?
Diastasis recti describes separation through the abdominal midline that can occur during pregnancy as the abdominal wall adapts. The degree of separation, symptoms, and recovery needs vary, and assessment is important before choosing any treatment pathway.
Core weakness
Some clients notice reduced abdominal strength, support, or confidence when returning to movement.
Lower back strain
Reduced core support can contribute to a sense of back fatigue or postural load in daily activity.
Postural changes
Pregnancy and early postpartum recovery can affect posture, pelvic control, and muscle activation patterns.
Tone may support muscle reactivation in suitable clients, but significant separation, pain, pelvic floor symptoms, or unresolved postnatal concerns should be assessed by an appropriate healthcare professional.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Diastasis Recti and Can Tone Help?
Diastasis recti refers to separation through the abdominal midline that can occur during pregnancy. Tone may support abdominal muscle activation and postnatal core conditioning in suitable clients, but it does not replace medical assessment, physiotherapy, or a structured rehabilitation program.
When Can I Start After Giving Birth?
Timing depends on your birth experience, healing, symptoms, and medical clearance. Your practitioner will assess suitability and may recommend waiting until you have clearance from your doctor, midwife, or pelvic health physiotherapist.
Is This the Same as the Tone Treatment in the Body Section?
The technology is related, but the positioning is different. Body Tone is focused on general muscle conditioning. Tone Postnatal Recovery is planned around post-pregnancy recovery goals, abdominal muscle reactivation, and suitability after birth.
Is It Safe If I Had a Caesarean Section?
Caesarean recovery requires individual assessment. Treatment should not proceed until the incision has healed and appropriate medical clearance has been provided. Your practitioner will advise whether additional clearance is required.
Should I Also See a Physiotherapist?
In many cases, yes. A pelvic health physiotherapist can assess pelvic floor function, diastasis severity, pain, and movement patterns. Tone may complement, but does not replace, physiotherapy or medical care.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
A course of sessions is usually recommended. The number depends on your recovery stage, baseline muscle activation, goals, and response to treatment. Results are not guaranteed and vary between individuals.
Can I Combine Tone With Other Postnatal Treatments?
In selected cases, Tone may be combined with other postnatal or wellness treatments as part of a staged plan. Your practitioner will advise on safe sequencing and whether additional medical guidance is needed.
