Summary
This article from PhysioWorks provides a comprehensive guide to the deep core muscles , which include the transversus abdominis , multifidus , pelvic floor , and diaphragm . These muscles act as a natural corset to stabilise the spine and support the pelvis during daily activities and exercise. The source explains that while these stabilisers are essential for preventing back pain and managing recovery, they often become weak or uncoordinated following injury or pregnancy. To address these issues, the text outlines various physiotherapy treatments , such as Pilates , core stability exercises, and real-time ultrasound retraining to ensure correct muscle activation. Ultimately, the resource highlights how maintaining a strong core improves posture, breathing, and overall physical performance.
