physiotherapist and chiropractor for golfers

Golf requires a unique combination of mobility, flexibility, stability, and strength. Whether you’re a recreational golfer or a competitive player, restrictions in your body can limit your swing, reduce power, and increase your risk of injury.

Our golf-focused care plans are designed to help you:

Improve hip and thoracic mobility
Increase flexibility for a smoother swing

Reduce back, shoulder, and elbow pain
Prevent common golf injuries
Enhance overall swing mechanics

Why Golfers Need Mobility, Flexibility, and Stability

A powerful and consistent golf swing depends on how well your body moves and controls that movement.

Mobility

Mobility in the hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders allows you to rotate properly during the backswing and follow-through. Limited mobility often leads to compensations that strain the lower back.

Flexibility

Flexibility in the muscles surrounding the hips, hamstrings, and shoulders allows golfers to create a full, fluid swing while reducing tension and stiffness.

Stability

Core and spinal stability help you control rotational forces during the swing, improving accuracy and power while protecting your spine.

Our physiotherapists and chiropractors assess these areas and create personalized treatment plans for golfers in Burlington.
