Although people may think golf is a less-intensive physical sport, teeing it up is actually associated with a number of injuries and pain problems. Many golf-related injuries result from poor mechanics or overuse, putting pressure and strain on the body. Even the most casual player can sustain injuries.

Some of the most common injuries reported as a result of playing golf include:

• Tendinitis/Golfer’s elbow
• Back Pain
• Shoulder Pain
• Knee Pain
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Wrist Injuries
• Hand & Finger Injuries
• Hip Pain

Hilton Head Island Golf Injury Care

At Fraum Center for Restorative Health, we treat all types of sports injuries. Initially, we perform a comprehensive physical exam along with X-rays. Once we’ve identified the root cause of your pain, we develop a treatment plan that is custom-tailored to your diagnosis. Treatment may include spinal adjustment, exercises and stretches and other therapies.

Spinal manipulations entail a manual, gentle force applied to the cervical or lumbar area to properly align the spine’s components. It relieves pressure caused on the spine’s nerves and muscles. Many patients experience some degree of pain relief after just one spinal adjustment.

At Fraum Center for Restorative Health, we will create a holistic treatment plan that is multi-faceted for optimal results. Whether you’re a golfer who has sustained a recent or you have incurred an injury due to another sport, call and schedule an appointment with our Hilton Head Island chiropractor.
