Golf season is here, and golfers across Langley are heading back to the course. While golf may seem like a low-impact sport, the repetitive twisting and rotational forces of a golf swing can place significant stress on the lower back, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced performance.
At Realign Chiropractic & Physiotherapy, we regularly help golfers recover from back pain and prevent injuries so they can enjoy the season without limitations.
Why Golfers Develop Lower Back Pain
A powerful golf swing requires coordination between your hips, core, and spine. When mobility is restricted or muscles become weak, the lower back often compensates, increasing the risk of pain and injury.
Common causes include:
- Poor swing mechanics
- Limited hip mobility
- Weak core muscles
- Tight hamstrings and hip flexors
- Playing multiple rounds without proper recovery
How to Protect Your Back This Golf Season
- Warm Up Before Every Round: Dynamic stretching and mobility exercises can prepare your body for the rotational demands of golf.
- Improve Core Strength: A strong core helps stabilize the spine and reduces stress on the lower back during your swing.
- Focus on Flexibility: Maintaining flexibility in the hips, shoulders, and hamstrings can improve swing mechanics and reduce strain on the back.
- Address Pain Early: Ignoring stiffness or discomfort often leads to more serious injuries that can keep you off the course for weeks.
