Golf is a game of precision, power, and mobility. But if you're dealing with nagging aches, stiffness, or a past injury, your swing—and your score—can suffer. At Scriven Chiropractic, we help golfers move better and feel better so they can play their best. With chiropractic care and shockwave therapy, we address pain, improve mobility, and keep your body in top shape for the course.

Why Golfers Struggle with Pain & Stiffness

A powerful, consistent golf swing requires flexibility, stability, and proper movement mechanics. However, the repetitive nature of swinging, along with long hours spent walking and bending, can put strain on key areas like the lower back, shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Some of the most common golf-related issues include:

  • Low back pain – A weak or stiff lower back can lead to inconsistent swings and discomfort after a round.

  • Golfer’s elbow – Repetitive stress on the tendons of the elbow can cause pain and inflammation.

  • Shoulder stiffness – Restricted shoulder mobility affects your backswing and follow-through.

  • Hip tightness – Limited hip rotation can lead to compensations that affect your swing mechanics.

How Chiropractic Care Helps Golfers

Chiropractic care isn’t just about pain relief—it’s about optimizing movement so you can generate more power and maintain consistency in your game. At Scriven Chiropractic, we focus on:

  • Improving spinal and joint mobility so you can rotate and move freely.

  • Reducing tension and muscle tightness in areas like the lower back, shoulders, and hips.

  • Enhancing balance and stability to create a more controlled, powerful swing.

  • Helping prevent injuries by addressing small movement dysfunctions before they turn into bigger issues.

Many golfers notice immediate improvements in their flexibility, swing mechanics, and endurance after chiropractic care.

Shockwave Therapy: Game-Changing Recovery for Golfers

For golfers dealing with stubborn pain or chronic injuries, shockwave therapy can speed up healing and break down scar tissue that limits mobility. This non-invasive treatment uses sound waves to stimulate circulation, reduce inflammation, and help the body repair damaged tissue—making it an excellent option for conditions like:

  • Golfer’s elbow (tendonitis in the forearm)

  • Rotator cuff pain from repetitive swings

  • Hip and lower back discomfort affecting rotation and stability

  • Plantar fasciitis or foot pain from walking the course
