As the fresh air comes and the sun starts to shine a bit more, finding the “perfect swing” on the golf course may come with some unwanted repercussions. The golf swing is an unnatural motion for the body to make, placing immense stress on the lumbar spine and the rotator cuff. While this sport is played by all ages, and may seem low-impact in appearance, this level of repetitive movement can turn a leisurely weekend activity into a source of chronic discomfort.

Danny, a 28 year old male, presented to our office complaining of right shoulder pain and stiffness across his lower back following a weekend of golfing with friends. He has been an avid golfer for multiple years, but has never experienced this level of symptoms. After starting a traditional course of chiropractic care, including chiropractic adjustments, at-home stretches, and increased hydration, Danny’s symptoms have greatly improved and he is happy to be back on the course pain-free.

If you are experiencing these symptoms and are ready to start on your journey to health, call THE HOLISTIC CENTER AT BRISTOL SQUARE located at 1426 Main Street, Walpole. Call (508) 660-2722 to schedule your appointment today.
