What type of injuries do Golfers present with in clinic?

🟒 Golfers Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis)
🟒 Shoulder pain
🟒 Lower back pain
🟒 Plantar fascititis

These issues are often due to the repetitive nature of Golf and the rotational, asymmetrical movement patterns that occur. Sometimes they are the result of reduced mobility, flexibility and strength or perhaps technique.

My top tips to reduce the risk of golf related injuries-

🟒 Warm up, choose a good dynamic warm up protocol targeting key Golf movement patterns, set aside those static stretches.
Focus on opening up through the shoulders and warming up through the spine and hips, wrists and ankles. Include thoracic rotation exercises like open book and thread the needle.

🟒 Perfect your swing mechanics with professional support if needed. Poor Swing mechanics can increase the strain and load on your muscles and tendons.

🟒 Build strength and mobility, areas to focus on include the shoulders, back, core, forearms, grip strength, glutes, legs, ankle and foot stabilisers.

🟒 Include balance drills for strength and stability too.

🟒 Equipment matters, properly fitted clubs will support good form and posture.

🟒 Footwear, shoes matter!
A large proportion of golfers I come across place minimal focus on investing in appropriate golf footwear, despite the fact golf places a huge demand on your feet. This demand is so much more than all the steps you put in. The feet play a pivotal role in balance, weight transfer and force transmission. Remember that during your swing, energy and force move from the ground up segmentally through the kinetic chain. The correct equipment and footwear will not only help reduce your risk of injury but will more than likely improve your game πŸ˜‰
