Golf Warm-Up Exercises
By: Krystal Evans – Physiotherapist, Level 2 Medical TPI Certified Total Balance Physiotherapy With the anticipated return to golf, we at Total Balance Physio would like you to be ready to get back out onto the course as soon as possible. With the ongoing weeks of not being able to play and a possibly more sedentary lifestyle, you may have lost some of your flexibility, strength, and control. It is important to be aware that you may have to warm up for a longer period of time than you have previously. Here are a couple of good warm-up exercises to include in your routine: Pelvic Rotations with Golf Club Support W Turns Windmills
Should the focus only be on mobility to help with your golf swing?
The answer is no. If there is a mobility issue that is affecting your golf swing, there is a good chance that there are specific motor patterns that have developed to give you certain swing characteristics. For example, if you have a lack of hip mobility then you may sway when you swing the golf club. By increasing the mobility in your hip, the sway doesn’t just disappear. Your body still has the programming to continue to sway. The next step is to retrain the muscles and motor patterns to be able to control the new range of motion achieved. By addressing both mobility and motor patterns, pain (if any) can decrease and longevity within the game that you love will increase.

Golfer’s elbow and tennis elbow – Just a problem with the forearm?
Pain in the forearm is not uncommon for many golfers. There can be many different reasons for this occurring. Each case is individual to each person and needs to be addressed accordingly. If only the forearm is addressed for the treatment of the pain and the causative factor is not addressed, there is a high probability the pain will be a recurring issue.
