Golf Physiotherapy

The field of Golf Physiotherapy not only involves treating injured golfers, but also helping golfers achieve their goals by improving their physical ability to swing the golf club.

The Golf swing is a complex series of movements, which many people find difficult to perform on a consistent basis. Physical restrictions including poor flexibility, strength and control or a lack of coordination of body parts, prevent the golfer from being able to achieve the complex movement patterns required for a good swing. Matt is able to identify these physical restrictions as they relate to the golf swing, and implement a program designed to correct these problem areas. This allows the golfer to improve their ability to swing the club and thus improve their game. This has the added advantage of reducing the risk of golf related injuries. Good body mechanics ensure a good swing that should not be harmful to your body.

Rehabilitation of injured golfers needs to be tailored to allow them to return to the course quickly and safely, while reducing the risk of future injury. A Golf Sports Physiotherapist is able to provide a focussed rehabilitation program specific to golf, rather than a generalised program that does not take into account the specific requirements of your golf swing. This involves assessing the whole body as it relates to the golf swing in order to identify the true cause of your problem. Matt is looking for long term solutions for your injuries that have the added benefit of improving your swing as well! This process will likely involve assessing the golfers swing technique, and often involves utilising the expertise of a qualified Golf Teaching Professional. By adopting this team approach to solving the golfer's particular problem, a long term solution can be achieved that will have the golfer on the course sooner and for longer.
