Golf is a finesse game that puts a lot of strain, wear, and tear on your body. It may not look as intense as hockey or football, but your back pain from a hard day’s work at the driving range says otherwise. Our Beaverton/ SW Portland chiropractor, Dr. Tony Tran, is a TPI medical golf assessment doctor you’ll want to see because he can help with your golf game and recovery.

How Chiropractors Can Help With Your Golf Game

Golf lessons are an absolute must for improving your game, and so is seeing Dr. Tran for evaluating the biomechanics of your swing. How your body moves through each swing is an indicator of your strengths, weakness, flexibility (or lack thereof), and what kinds of injuries you could be setting yourself up for. 

You don’t have to wait until after you develop back pain or golfer’s elbow to benefit from seeing our chiropractor for these benefits:

  1. Improve strength where you need it - The golf swing works a certain set of muscles that undergo a lot of strain and can get quite tight. Dr. Tran provides adjustments as needed to help with nerve signaling and fighting off tightness. This leads to better muscle strength and recovery. 
  2. Improve flexibility where you need it - Flexibility is key to muscle performance and injury prevention. Dr. Tran can identify areas of tightness and guide you through stretching routines to open up and optimize your swing.
  3. Injury prevention - The last thing you want is to watch a beautiful day on the green pass while you sit there with an ice pack pressed to your back. Dr. Tran will evaluate how your body moves through a swing and give you feedback on how to avoid injury, along with provide chiropractic adjustments to keep your spine moving well.
  4. Chiropractic adjustments - These help with all of the above because adjustments are shown to help with nerve function, back pain relief, joint pain relief, relaxing tight muscles, and more. Regular chiropractic care can help boost your performance and help your body recover faster.
