At Buffalo Injury & Wellness Center, we understand the unique demands golf places on your body. Whether you’re a weekend golfer or a competitive player, the repetitive motions and asymmetrical movements of the golf swing can take a toll—especially on your spine, shoulders, hips, and wrists. Our chiropractic care focuses on treating and preventing golf-related injuries, so you can return to the course with strength, flexibility, and confidence.
Common Golf Injuries We Treat
1. Lower Back Pain
The twisting motion of a golf swing puts significant stress on the lumbar spine. This can lead to muscle strain, herniated discs, or chronic tightness.
2. Shoulder Injuries
Rotator cuff strains and impingements are common due to repetitive overhead motion and follow-through during swings.
3. Elbow Pain (Golfer’s Elbow)
Medial epicondylitis, or “golfer’s elbow,” is an overuse injury caused by repetitive gripping and wrist flexion.
4. Hip and Knee Pain
Torque and rotation can aggravate existing hip or knee issues or create new ones over time.
5. Wrist and Hand Injuries
Overuse, poor grip technique, or hitting the ground can cause sprains, tendonitis, and nerve irritation.
How Chiropractic Care Helps Golfers
Our goal is to restore mobility, relieve pain, and optimize your body’s mechanics. With personalized chiropractic treatment, we:
Align the spine and joints to improve posture and reduce strain
Increase range of motion in key areas like the hips, shoulders, and thoracic spine
Reduce inflammation and promote soft tissue healing
Offer tailored rehab exercises to strengthen your core and prevent recurrence
Provide swing-specific assessments and ergonomic advice
Improve Your Game with a Healthier Body
Golf is as much about precision and control as it is about power. A misalignment or untreated injury can throw off your swing and compromise your game. Chiropractic care helps ensure your body is moving the way it was designed to—fluidly, efficiently, and pain-free.
