🏋️‍♀️ Key Exercises for Female Hockey Players 🔑

Female skaters often show different movement patterns on the ice — more upright posture, less knee/hip flexion, and different coordination strategies. That means their training should look different too.

These exercises target:

Explosive power from low positions
Glute + hamstring strength for better push-off
Hip abduction for wider, more powerful strides
Trunk control for stability + performance
Eccentric control to reduce injury risk

👀 Swipe to see our go-to exercises for building faster, stronger, more resilient female hockey players.

✨ Keep your active body moving at its best! ✨

Massage therapy isn’t just for relaxation—it’s a powerful tool for anyone who trains, competes, or simply loves to stay active. Regular massage can:
✅ Reduce muscle tension and soreness
✅ Improve circulation and mobility
✅ Support faster recovery after workouts or competition
✅ Prevent injuries by addressing imbalances early
✅ Help you feel and perform your best

Whether you’re pushing for new goals or just want to keep moving without pain, massage therapy is a smart addition to your routine. 💪

📅 Book your next session and give your body the care it deserves!
