Many people know that lower back pain requires spinal adjustment,
but they often overlook another important support point at the front of the body — the Rectus Abdominis.

➡️ The Rectus Abdominis is the main vertical core muscle located at the front of the abdomen.
Its role is to work together with the muscles of the back to stabilize the spine in the center.

Think of it like a tent — when there is balanced tension from both the front and the back, the structure remains stable.

So what happens when the Rectus Abdominis loses its strength? ❓

When this front support structure becomes weak, the body’s load-bearing balance is disrupted.
Internal organs may shift downward due to gravity, increasing abdominal pressure and placing strain on surrounding nerves.

This is why many people experience recurrent lower back soreness and pain — the rectus abdominis is no longer providing enough support.

At Chen Xin TCM, Practitioner NG uses professional treatment approaches to help restore the proper tension and strength of the rectus abdominis. 🌟
