Core Stability refers to the ability of the body to activate the trunk muscles or better known "core muscles".

It involves specific activation and control of deep stabilising muscles. Good core stability is using the right muscles at the right time at the right intensity to control the trunk appropriately for the task at hand. These muscles are important and crucial in nearly all your daily activities so it is without a doubt a necessity knowing how to control, activate and strengthen them.

Core Stability retraining is important for the treatment of many areas including:

  • Low back pain
  • Groin strain and Osteitis Pubis
  • Hamstring
  • Pelvis
  • Women's Health - pelvic floor and peri-natal period
  • Hip Pain
  • Knee Complaints
  • Shoulder Stability (throwing, golf swing, batting mechanics)
  • Injury prevention
  • Performance enhancement

  • Neuro Rehab and Paediatrics
