Are you experiencing any of these symptoms while playing golf?

I'm having trouble playing golf because of golfer's elbow.

The pain in my legs, lower back, and hips after playing doesn't go away for several days.

I'm putting too much force into my swing, which is preventing the ball from going where I want it to.

Please rest assured.

A golfer hits a golf ball.

The most common symptom seen in patients who play golf is hip and lower back pain. This pain is often caused by the movement of the hips, pelvis, and spine during weight transfer in the golf swing.

There are various patterns, but many people stumble when it comes to how to use their hip joints when shifting their weight from their right side to their left side.

If you feel tightness in the outer thighs and buttocks after playing golf, you might be experiencing this pattern.

Characteristics of treatments for golf-related problems at Karada Kenkyujo Acupuncture and Osteopathic Clinic

At our clinic, we begin by checking your swing to understand the mobility of your hip joint and any habitual ways you use your pelvis, in order to determine the cause of your pain.

Afterward, we perform trigger point therapy to treat the muscles causing the pain, and we also instruct patients on exercises to help them understand which muscles should and shouldn't be used during their swing.

By learning the correct way to use your body through exercise, you will be able to swing without pain and hit the ball further.

Do you often get told that you're tensing up too much during lessons or courses?

Many people struggle with not knowing how to relax their muscles, or finding themselves tensing up uncontrollably.

First, are you using your body correctly?

For example, various factors such as the stability of the core (intra-abdominal pressure using the diaphragm) and which muscles should be used and which should be avoided when twisting the hip joint combine to enable a natural and effortless swing.

The reason you're experiencing these symptoms is very likely because you're not using your body properly.
