About Martin Eriksson-Crommert

Martin Eriksson Crommert is Reg Physiotherapist and researcher at the University Health Care Research Centre, Region Örebro County, affiliated to the School of Medical Sciences, Örebro University. Martin’s research is primarily oriented towards the neuromuscular control of the trunk, i.e. the study of how we control/coordinate our abdominal and back muscles. As a part of this research, he investigates the relationship between various biological and psychological factors and diastasis recti, in women after pregnancy.
