Lumbar stabilization exercises focus on strengthening the core muscles that surround and support the lumbar spine, including the abdominals, obliques, and lower back muscles. These exercises help to stabilize the spine, improve posture, and reduce the risk of injury, especially in individuals with lower back pain or those recovering from a lumbar injury.

Common lumbar stabilization exercises include pelvic tilts, bridges, planks, and bird-dogs, all of which engage the core muscles to support the lumbar spine. These exercises also help improve functional movement, allowing patients to move more efficiently and safely.

Lumbar stabilization is essential for preventing back pain, improving posture, and promoting long-term spinal health.
