Is back pain hindering you from enjoying a complete session on the golf course? Because of the one sided movement in the golf swing, almost every golfer at some period undergoes some form of injury or pain: some acute and others chronic. Doctors of Chiropractic are the ideal selection to evaluate, teach, care for, condition and train golfers.

Folsom, California golfer Gil VanAttenhoven tells how he hurt his back while playing golf and was not able to complete the round due to difficulty walking. Although apprehensive at first, two of his friends suggested he see Barger Chiropractic of Folsom and after four chiropractic treatments, he was playing on the golf course participating in what he likes so much.

The golf swing demands the torso to turn, bend side to side and extend. This requires flexibility that is specific to golf players. Doctors of Chiropractic have extensive education in the bio-mechanics of human movement and will assist you in determining the etiology of your complaint or condition, then treat it.

The chiropractor’s job is not to show you the golf swing, but to find the bio-mechanical movement causing a repetitive strain injury. Additional injury is avoided by isolating and re-routing a improper swing. This can initially be explored in the office setting for apparent problems.

Posture plays an important part, with static posture responsible for general alignment before the swing begins. A portion of a golfer’s dynamic postural fitness and strength is the ability to keep proper posture during the golf swing.

Good golf posture demands proper positioning of both the neck and low-back, with maintaining of the forward curvatures (lordosis). These forward spinal curves allow mechanical leverage for power and allow your ability to turn your body. Poor golf posture reduces these curves, inhibiting spinal rotation. This causes golfers to over-swing, resulting in soft tissue injuries.

With the above in mind, the primary purpose for pelvic and spinal rotation in the back-swing is to achieve a body position that permits effective club head delivery at ball impact. The three main reasons for you to adopt a short back-swing that reduces spinal rotation are:

1. More control of the golf club and club head throughout the swing, which transforms into improved control of the golf ball.
2. Short back swings achieve equal club-head speed at ball impact as long back-swings, according to research by Seaman in his article “Back pain in golfers:etiology and prevention.”
3. Torsional stress in the lumbar spine is reduced with a short back-swing.

There are numerous methods of care that chiropractic doctors can offer golf players, including preventive swing advice, spinal adjustments, rehabilitation exercises and non-pharmaceutical anti-inflammatory nutrition. Spinal adjustments are good for reducing pain and improving spinal function.
