As spring gives way to summer, the sports scene picks up fast—playoffs, tournaments, and outdoor leagues are all in motion. Whether you're a competitive athlete or weekend player, now’s the time to take a smarter approach to your physical performance and recovery.
At Capital Wellness, we believe peak performance comes from balance—preparation, movement, and recovery working together.
Quick Stretches to Get You Game-Ready
Before hitting the field, rink, or gym, take 5 minutes for a dynamic warm-up. These pre-game stretches can improve mobility, boost performance, and reduce your risk of injury:
- Leg Swings – Loosen up hips and hamstrings.
- Walking Lunges with a Twist – Engage your core and glutes.
- High Knees or Butt Kicks – Elevate your heart rate and activate key muscles.
- World’s Greatest Stretch – Open hips, hamstrings, and spine.
- Arm Circles – Prep shoulders and upper body for action.
A dynamic warm-up primes your body so you can move better, faster, and safer.
Move Better, Recover Smarter
Training hard is important—but how you recover matters just as much. That’s why we offer an integrated approach to athlete care at Capital Wellness:
- Physiotherapy – Address imbalances, reduce pain, and improve function.
- Massage Therapy – Speed up recovery, reduce muscle tension, and support circulation.
- Chiropractic Care – Optimize joint alignment, posture, and mobility.
These services work best together, helping you stay injury-free, bounce back faster, and perform at your full potential all season long.
