Golf Injury?
The most common sites of injury to the amateur golfer's body is:
- Low Back Pain: 27-36%
- Elbow injury: 32-35%
- Hand and Wrist Injury: 14-21%
- Shoulder injury: 11-16%
Golfer, do you get these symptoms?
We have people come through our clinic on a daily basis to get treatment, supportive care, and relief for these symptoms. Wrists are often overstressed with practicing the swing, elbows usually go along with the wrists. Shoulder muscles are strained with swig compensation. Knee injuries can prohibit a full game of golf because of the pain with walking. 
Oftentimes, foot biomechanics can cause an imbalance of the pelvis and spine.
Our clinic does an excellent job of treating these injuries, and we can provide the tools to increase flexibility and movement of all of the individual joints of the spine to work with ease. We have low back rehabilitation as a part of our golfer's protocols and chiropractic care for spinal function.
Chiropractic adjustments of the wrists, elbows, shoulders, ribs, knees and ankles work wonders with some of our patients with overuse injuries from golfing. Along with this, since we have doctor-supervised protocols, you are provided with a full examination and a diagnosis of your condition.
Often, when golfers have spine injury or pain, they compensate by shorting the swing, and over stressing the shoulder. Click here to learn about shoulder injuries, or here for wrist and elbow injuries. Learn more about low back pain here.
