Abstract

With the need for the theoretical-empirical basis expansion of the core stability concept, already in progress in the therapeutic repertoire, mainly within the scope of Manual Therapy and Sports Physiotherapy, the demand of work that could bring, the methods of training for core stability was observed. As the low back pain affects or will affect 80% of people all over the world, this therapeutic method has shown effective results in several studies. In this article, several studies were collected from different databases (Scielo, Bireme, Cochrane) as well as from our personal archive, in the period from 1987 to 2008. Despite the increase of this subject in Physiotherapy, there is a lack of randomized studies with controlled variables, which could enable exercises that are used empirically to be finally accepted scientifically. Therefore, core stability is an excellent therapeutic method used in several clinical situations, from beginning to the end of a treatment. However, more studies about the core stability training method are suggested.
