Secret Golf Tip Only the Pros Know!

Golf is no doubt one of the best games in the world. However, playing the game can be frustrating at times. If you feel the same as I do about the game, what could be even more frustrating is not knowing why you’re not reaching your full potential?

Regular golfers are consistently trying to improve their score. Whether it’s improving their swing or the distance of their drives. Golfers can find it hard to perform at their highest level. When their body is not functioning at its optimal level and what’s concerning is that they don’t even know it!

Common physical restrictions that can affect your swing:

·         Limited shoulder flexibility – Due to loss of posture

·         Restricted hip rotation – Causing you to sway and slide

·         Pore core strength –Due to a reverse spine angle due to restricted thoracic (mid back) movement.

·         Limited ankle dorsiflexion- Causing early extension

Players may not even know that there are limitations in their swing. This will cause their swing to be not  as effective during play. Despite how much practice time at the driving range and putting green.

Pain also affects swing and should avoid the following:

·         Bend at the knees(squat) when retrieving the ball

·         Slow down your backswing. This will minimize rotational stress on the lower back at the top of the backswing

·         When lifting your golf bag use proper mechanics when lifting bag.

·         Consider putting with a longer shaft

·         Make sure that your weight is properly shifted to the right foot during the back swing, arms and shoulders are kept within the plane of the swing at the top of the back swing

·         Make sure that your shoulder and hip turn stays centre while pivoting on the backswing.

How can wear and tear, whether it’s from Golf or other sports causing pain be diminished and stopped from returning?

The pros secret tip is…….Chiropractic!

This is what Venus Williams had to say about chiropractic treatment:

“Chiropractic gives me the flexibility I need to keep in the game”

This is what Tiger Woods had to say about chiropractic treatment:

“Being a Chiropractic patient on a regular bases has made me a better golfer. I’ve been going to Chiropractors for as long as I can remember. It’s as important to my training as my practice swing.”

So, what does Chiropractic do to improve our game?

Chiropractors focus on the spine and nervous system, making it easier to twist, move and perform at your optimal level. After Chiropractic care you are more flexible, pain free, and may see an instant improvement in your swing!

Pros such as Rory Mcilroy and Tiger Woods have regular Chiropractic treatment to keep them performing at their best. Getting regular adjustments. Keep muscles balanced, our nervous system functioning, and maintain proper biomechanical structure. Which gets athletes functioning at an optimal level and gets them to the next level.

Nike has published a video involving Rory Mcilroy daily workout regiment, and most importantly Rory receiving Chiropractic care (adjustments) at 0.33 and 0.43 part of the video. Check it out below!
