You will notice the design of the bacpillow

• supports your shoulders and neck as they relax
• allows you to focus your attention on tightening the lower abdominals (the Transverse Abdominals)

Because your body may be used to holding tension in the shoulders you may have to consciously relax the shoulders into the cushion.

With the body less tense and the muscles of the upper back and shoulders switched off, your mind is able to concentrate more readily on connecting with the more subtle internal core muscles of the pelvic floor and Transverse Abdominis (TA).

Performing exercises while lying on this pillow will help strengthen your core muscles.
