How is your posture? Posture is an important part of everyday life that many of us tend not to focus on – Do you slouch in your desk chair, or slumpatyourcomputerwhileyoudowork?Whenyoustand forprolonged periods of time, do you notice your stomach sticking out a bit? These are all signs of core muscle weakness that can affect your posture and cause pain in your back or neck. Your core muscles help you do a lot – from sitting, to walking, to doing a large number of physical activities. If your core muscles are weak, you may unknowingly be causing some damage to your body. Contact Kinetix Physical Therapy today to figure out how we can help you strengthen your core muscles and improve your overall health. What exactly are the core muscles? When most people think of core muscles, they immediately think of the abdominals. However, the core

is made up of much more than that! In fact, your core muscles include your abdominal, lower back, pelvic, and gluteus muscles. Your core muscles optimize efficiency and prevent injuries by supporting your posture and stabilizing your body. When any of the muscles within that group becomeweak,yourbodyexperiencesan instability thatmakes itdifficult foryour body to function properly. As a result, you end up compensating by straining different areas of the body, most commonly the back and neck muscles. As a result, this leads to undesirable consequences, such as poor posture, fatigue, inflammation, or pain.
