Low back pain: how to prevent it?
When we talk about ice sports, we think of hockey, figure skating, speed skating and free skating.
"A physiotherapist can evaluate your condition and suggest a suitable treatment plan.
Some common injuries related to ice sports:
Hockey
- Concussion
- Contusion
- Low back pain
- Fracture
- Sprain
Speed skating
- Low back pain
- Muscle strain
Figure skating

The main causes of low back pain:
- Quantification of training: too much skating, too fast. For example, an inactive person who skates for 2 hours will be sore.
- Posture: a prolonged skating position will affect your back if you are not used to it.
- Lack of stability: Lack of stability exercises can lead to lower back pain.
Trauma: here we are talking about HOCKEY.

to evaluate your condition and have a treatment plan adapted to help you recover quickly.
What about warming up and stretching?
A warm-up involves gradually increasing your body temperature. For skating, it is recommended to stretch the leg muscles, especially those on the inner thighs, as they contribute to the skating movement.
