Feel them on the first day of advent. We support clients through oncology treatments everyday at Pear, and want to do what we can to keep the awareness raising happening - young women get cancer too!

Checking your breasts regularly helps you know what’s normal for you - and makes it easier to notice any changes early.

How to do it: 
- with an open hand, make wedges, small circles and feel across and up and down your breast. Don’t forget to feel under your armpit too!

What to look out for:
- Lumps or thickened tissue, check under your armpit too
- Changes in size, shape, or skin texture
- Ni**le changes or discharge
- Any pain or unusual sensations

Early detection saves lives ♥️

Diastasis Recti isn’t just “your abs separating.”
It’s a change in the tension of the linea alba - the connective tissue down the centre of your abdomen.

That’s why at Pear, we don’t focus on “closing the gap.”
We focus on restoring tension and strength through the linea alba itself so your core can transfer load well, support movement, and feel stronger.

Our approach to DR includes exercises that focus on strengthening the linea alba, not just the 6-pack muscles - as well as addressing how you are breathing + pressure management. We help you build strong, functional movement patterns, and get back to heavier lifting and loading to remodel the connective tissue over time!

A small gap can remain and still be perfectly functional >>>> tension is what matters.

How to Check for Abdominal Separation
1. Lie on your back with knees bent.
2. Relax your belly.
3. Place two fingers above your belly button.
4. Gently lift your head/shoulders in a small curl-up.
5. Feel:
• How many fingers fit
More importantly — what does the tissue feel like underneath?
• Soft or “sink-y”?
• Or firm and springy?
6. Repeat below and above the belly button.

If you’re unsure what you’re feeling, or want a personalised plan to rebuild your core, our women’s health exercise physiologists and physios at Pear can help you assess, understand, and train effectively for your diastasis rehabilitation.

At Pear, we are passionate about Women's Health! Our team provide services to support pregnancy, birth, menopause, cancer, pelvic pain, injury rehabilitation and surgical rehabilitation post mastectomy & hysterectomy. We support women through every stage of life, and our team of Exercise Physiologists, Physiotherapists, Remedial Massage Therapists & Nutritionists have additional training to work with Women. We recognise that there is a lack of support for women who experience injuries, illnesses or chronic diseases such as endometriosis or abdominal separation and want to help bridge the gap between diagnoses, acute rehabilitation and long term recovery and management. ​ We hope to break down the barriers of taboo and stigma in Womens Health, by providing specialist services from our baby friendly studio, and helping all women to use exercise as medicine to improve their health.
