Patients with back pain are often advised to strengthen their core muscles. So what exactly are core muscles and why do they play such an important role in back pain recovery?
We often associate the core muscles with the ‘6 packs’. In reality, our core muscle group consists of a deep layer of muscles, mainly the transversus abdominal and the multifidus muscle.
The two muscles wrap around our spine to provide our body with a stable foundation.
Controlling and activating the core muscles is a very intricate network of nervous system. This ensures that our core muscles provide the our body with adequate stability before every single movements.
Failure for the core muscles to function correctly can result in wear and tear and injuries. When back pain occurs, our nervous system loses the ability to control our core muscles and caused inadequate stability in our skeletal structre. Over the long term, this can cause other parts of our body to compensate, thus causing damages to the surrounding structures.
Fixing the back pain is only half the equation. We also need to restore the proper functions and controls of our core muscles and nervous system to ensure that the body stays injury free.
