Hip Abduction

Hip abduction exercises target the outer hip muscles—especially the gluteus medius—which are essential for pelvic alignment, balance, and lower body control. Whether you're using a band or bodyweight, this move helps reinforce strength where it matters most.

Why It’s Essential for Beauty Pros:

  • Supports Hip & Knee Health – Keeps your hips strong and stable during long periods of standing or shifting weight behind the chair.

  • Improves Pelvic Alignment – Reduces imbalances that can lead to low back pain or sciatic discomfort.

  • Builds Endurance in Postural Muscles – Helps you stay grounded while working on uneven flooring or pivoting between clients.

  • Prevents Overuse Injuries – Reinforces the muscles that stabilize your lower body and reduce strain on your joints.

Keeping your hips strong and steady is key to staying pain-free behind the chair—this simple movement helps you do just that.
