Defeat Diastasis®
The Defeat Diastasis® rehabilitation program was developed by Dr. Katherine Melot in an effort to help her postpartum patients heal more efficiently. By pairing NeuX technology with traditional rehabilitative exercises, Dr. Melot found that her patients improved significantly faster and more effectively. Since inception, the program has significantly grown in Austin, TX in Dr. Melot's private practice.

About Our Program
Our Defeat Diastasis® rehabilitation program is a great way to kick start your way back into movement after pregnancy, abdominal surgery, or those who struggle to connect with their core. Although diastasis is most commonly seen during pregnancy and follows directly after delivery, our program can help any age, gender, or severity of separation.
It takes time to heal! For our postpartum mamas, the biggest thing to remember is it took 9 months to grow that beautiful human and it typically takes anywhere from 6 months to 1 year to get back to the way you felt pre-pregnancy. We like to remind our patients to be kind to themselves during this time of healing.
Our Defeat Diastasis® rehabilitation program is not only for the core but it also can help relieve pelvic floor symptoms. Patients report improvements with urinary incontinence, prolapse, and pain with intercourse. Our program strengthens, coordinates, and activates the pelvic floor with unprecedented results.

Our Technology
Our Defeat Diastasis® program is powered by NeuX technology.
​
A unique summing of two waveforms, the interactive neuromuscular stimulation (iNMS)
platform is the combination of a high frequency alternating current waveform and a lower
frequency direct current waveform. The outcome is a much smoother, more refined stimulus that is more effective than devices that use only direct current or alternating current.
iNMS ™ allows the practitioner to search the body and identify not only the area of known dysfunction, but also the undetected dysfunctional tissue. It is imperative that the root cause be located in order to achieve successful rehabilitation, and iNMS does just that: the innovative stimulus innervates muscle tissue in the area of dysfunction and the individual muscle at the root cause of the pain can be identified.
The NeuX treatment enables the patient to simultaneously perform the appropriate movement pattern while the iNMS stimulus is applied to the dysfunctional tissue sites. The patient benefits from the traditional outcomes of physical therapy, which include muscle strengthening, increased range of motion and motor learning; however, with iNMS, better results are achieved exponentially faster and with longer lasting effects.
What to Expect
Defeat Diastasis ® is an 8-week full body exercise program using NeuX Technology's interactive
neuromuscular stimulation (iNMS) platform and the NXPro system, which is proven to cut
healing time in HALF. The NeuX iNMS platform is an advanced blending a high frequency
alternating current waveform and a lower frequency direct current waveform, which creates a
smooth stimulus that is able to penetrate deeply into the musculature compared devices that use
only direct current or alternating current. Our program pairs iNMS with proper functional
movements during core exercises that slowly ease you into more advanced moves along the way.
These movements will not only help improve core activation, but will contribute to full body
strengthening as well. Our goal is to make your everyday activities easier (lifting kids, picking
up laundry baskets, or doing dishes to name a few) and prevent injuries from occurring in the
future.​
​
The program consists of 16 or 24 sessions - each session is 50 minutes of one-on-one training
(Number of sessions will vary, depending on the severity of the separation)
16 sessions = 2x/week
24 sessions = 3x/week
