There are specific muscles in your trunk and neck that help maintain your spine in an optimal position whilst you go about your daily activities. If these muscles are not working correctly, the spine may move or be positioned inappropriately. A physiotherapist can assess your core stability and show you how to improve it with specific exercises.
