Core stability is one of the most important foundations of healthy movement, yet many people think the core is only about the abdominal muscles. In reality, the core includes the deep muscles around the spine, the pelvic floor, diaphragm and the muscles in your throat that create voice. These areas work together to keep the body steady and to help every movement feel smoother and more controlled.

One of the most overlooked parts of physical therapy is breathing. Most people do not think about how they breathe during daily movement, but the way you breathe affects your posture, your core strength, and even how your body manages pain.
