Chiropractic care is standard for many pro golfers and increasingly for many Senior Golfers as well. Professional golfer Lori West attributes the reason she's playing today to chiropractic. Nearly two decades ago, she began visiting a chiropractor for pain in her shoulders and neck. According to West, the care has infinitely improved her golf game. According to Dr. Travis Ruda, chiropractor and golf enthusiast, the golf swing in and of itself isn't conducive to having a healthy back. To have a good swing you create tension in your spine. (this enables you to get good distance). The tension comes from the hips stopping and the shoulders continuing to rotate. Basically, you make a coil. You're uncoiling when you start your downswing. Since that's an awkward movement for your back, many golfers end up with lower back problems. Here's some chiropractic advice.
