Golf Performace Assessment
Who is the Golf Program For?
Our golf program is designed to supplement what you’re working on with your golf pro, making it easier to advance your game.
Do you need to increase your hip and trunk rotation, decrease lateral sway, maintain a set posture, engage your core and activate muscles at key moments when they’re needed most to maximize your swing mechanics?
Have you been noticing increased pain during your swing or after a round of golf that is reducing your enjoyment of the game and ability to progress as you would like? Or have you had a surgery or recent injury that has left you wondering if it’s safe to play golf again?
If you answered yes to any of these, then it’s time to have a skilled Physical Therapist assess your body and provide key treatment components that will help improve your ability to hold up against the stresses and strain associated with the golf swing!
How Does it Work?
- It starts with a discussion of your health history and any issues that may impact your training goals.
- Then a hands on physical assessment is performed checking out joint mobility, strength, flexibility, motor control and positional awareness.
- We’ll look at your swing, and use video to key in on areas where your body may be breaking down during the swing.
- We’ll implement some focused strategies to improve those areas of limitation found during the physical assessment.
- Hit more shots and assess the changes.
- Provide handouts for the recommended home program and schedule follow up visits as needed.
