She is India's first Tupler Technique ® Trained Diastasis Recti Rehab specialist and Founder of India's only Pre/Post-Natal friendly platform for weight loss and fitness - FIT MOMS FITTER HOMES ®. Being an Army officer, she had been physically fit, but motherhood brought a lot of changes for her, both physically and mentally. It was a tough transition for which she was not prepared and suffered from various physical and mental hurdles. She also realised that most fitness trainers apply the same rule of exercising even on postpartum clients, which leads to various kinetic dysfunctions at a later stage and ignites issues like Diastasis recti and pelvic floor prolapses. Hence, with her journey of healing from a 6-finger diastasis, Post Postpartum depression and dealing with hundreds of women facing all the above issues, she is creating more awareness by providing researched material on pre/postnatal Nutrition and Exercise Regime. Her commendable work in the field of Women’s health and fitness, both mentally and physically, has also been recognized by WAOW Foundation’s Humanitarian Category in 2022.
