Abstract

Core control was quantified using performance measures derived from a computer game driven by rotation and tilt of the trunk and pelvis. Baseline results showed reduced control of tilt in comparison to rotation, and cephalo-caudal reduction of control. Training of pelvic tilt control may improve pelvic kinematics, reducing the risk of developing low back pain.
