Still Can’t Flatten Your Belly No Matter How Much You Work Out?

It might not be fat — it could be Diastasis Recti, also known as abdominal muscle separation.
Common among postpartum women, office workers, and people with poor posture,
this condition causes your belly to look “bulged” or soft, even after exercise.

If untreated, it may lead to lower back pain, weak core, or even urinary leakage.

---

鷝 Quick 1-Minute Self-Test for Diastasis Recti

Upper Abdomen Test:

• Lie on your back with knees bent, feet on the floor.

• Slightly lift your head and use your fingers to feel above and below the navel.

Lower Abdomen Test:

• Lift your legs slightly and feel the midline again.

• If you can fit 1–2 fingers, it’s mild;
  if 3 or more, you may need targeted rehabilitation.

Avoid traditional sit-ups — they can make it worse!

How TCM & Acupuncture Help Heal Diastasis Recti

At Health Shine TCM Bukit Jalil, Dr. Kayla Lee uses a holistic, gentle approach to restore abdominal strength and balance:
Acupuncture Therapy — activates deep muscle recovery, improves blood flow.
Herbal Therapy — strengthens Qi, supports uterus and tissue repair.
Tuina & Abdominal Massage — relaxes tension, improves circulation, and promotes healing.
Pelvic Alignment — restores posture, core stability, and overall energy flow.

From Kayla Lee

“Many mothers think their belly won’t go away after delivery because of fat —
but often, it’s muscle separation.
Through acupuncture and TCM-based core recovery, we help realign the body from within,
improving not just shape, but long-term strength and confidence.”

— Dr. Kayla Lee, Registered TCM Practitioner (MOH Malaysia)

Do You Feel Like Your Pants Always Get Stuck at the Hips? �

You might think it’s fat — but the truth could be pelvic expansion or false hip width.
Many women, especially postpartum mothers or those who sit for long hours,
notice their lower body looking wider even without weight gain.

At Health Shine TCM Bukit Jalil, Dr. Kayla Lee explains that this is often due to pelvic misalignment,
not just excess fat. Through proper diagnosis and holistic TCM treatment,
you can reshape your body, relieve tension, and regain posture balance naturally.

---

Pelvic Expansion vs. False Hip Width

Pelvic Expansion:
Common after childbirth — the pelvis opens outward to accommodate delivery,
but if not corrected, it causes a wider lower body and back pain.

False Hip Width (Hip Rotation):
Usually caused by long hours of sitting, leg-crossing, or standing unevenly.
This leads to external rotation of the thigh bone,
making the hips look bigger and legs appear shorter.

---

1-Minute Self-Test

Clothing Check:
Do your pants often feel tight around the hips?

�� Balance Test:
Stand with both hands on your waist and lift one leg to 90°.
Does your pelvis stay level?
If not, there may be misalignment or weak core stability.

---

“Don’t Wash Your Hair After Birth — or You’ll Have Headaches Forever!” �

Sound familiar?
Many mothers hear strict confinement rules from older generations —
“No bathing,” “No hair washing,” “No cold water,” —
but how true are these beliefs in today’s world?

At Health Shine TCM Bukit Jalil, Dr. Kayla Lee, a registered TCM practitioner,
helps debunk these myths and guide new mothers through safe, modern postpartum recovery
without fear of “confinement wind” (月子风).

---

What Is “Confinement Wind” (月子风)?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), after childbirth,
a woman’s body is in a state of Qi and Blood deficiency — the pores are open,
and external cold can easily enter, leading to symptoms such as:

• Headaches

• Muscle stiffness

• Fatigue and chills

• Body pain or joint discomfort

However, hygiene and warmth are equally important for recovery.
Avoiding all showers or hair washing may actually increase the risk of infection and discomfort.

---

‍� Modern TCM Approach to Safe Confinement Care

Yes, You Can Wash — But the Method Matters:
Use warm water, avoid cold air or damp environments, and dry your hair immediately.
Keep Your Body Warm:
Wear socks and long sleeves, especially in air-conditioned rooms.
Acupuncture & Herbal Support:
Promotes circulation, balances hormones, and relieves postpartum fatigue.
Balanced Nutrition:
Avoid overly oily confinement meals; include light, nourishing foods that strengthen Qi and Blood.

---

From Dr. Kayla Lee

“Confinement care isn’t about avoiding everything —
it’s about doing things the right way.
When mothers maintain cleanliness, warmth, and proper rest,
the body recovers faster, naturally and confidently.”

— Dr. Kayla Lee, Registered TCM Practitioner (MOH Malaysia)

She Cares for Everyone — But Who Cares for Her?

Many women spend their lives taking care of family — children, parents, and work —
but forget to take care of themselves.
The constant fatigue, poor sleep, dizziness, or irregular menstruation are not “minor issues.”
They are your body’s way of saying: “I’m tired too.”

At Health Shine TCM Bukit Jalil, we believe that true beauty and health come from balance —
a harmony of Qi, Blood, and emotion.

---

‍� When Stress Becomes “Three Highs”

Conditions like high blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar aren’t just “middle-aged problems.”
They are the result of long-term self-neglect —
of always putting others first, while your body runs on empty.

That’s why Health Shine TCM Bukit Jalil is collaborating with wellness partners to present the
Women’s Self-Care Workshop — an empowering session that blends
TCM × Nutrition × Emotional Awareness,
helping women reconnect with their inner rhythm and vitality.
