Our
Unique CPG Program
The golf
swing puts an unusually high demand on the body. Back, elbow,
wrist, hip and knee pain, are the most common physical complaints
among golf professional and recreational golfers, albeit for
a variety of reasons.
Hence, in order for a comprehensive program designed to suit
you and your goal, you will need to come to our office for
a full golf specific evaluation.
Our
7
Step Treatment Approach
(Estimated time needed: 2 to 3 hours)
- You
will be given a complete Neuromusculoskeletal (NMS) Examination.
- You
will
be checked for areas of increased or decreased mobility.
- We
check for areas of prior injuries.
- We
will address any presence of degenerative changes.
- We
evaluate your golf swing from a biomechanical viewpoint.
- Finally,
we assess your goals and design a comprehensive program
together with chiropractic therapy.
- We
incorporate strategic stretches and exercises to help achieve
the golf of your dreams.
To further
elaborate:
NMS
Examination
Generally called a physical examination, we need to take into
account your age and physical limitations and compare what
we find to what you want out of your golf game. In most cases
this fills the requirement that you should seek advice from
your physician before embarking on an exercise program. First
thing is finding out about your health history. We then check
vital signs, range of motion, reflexes, muscles and joints.
Golf
swing analysis
We need to know your most common swing faults: slice, hook,
fat, thin, etc. Then we examine your golf swing at many stages:
1/4, 1/2 and full back swing, down swing, impact and follow-through
and compare the results to common biomechanical faults.
Assessing
goals and developing your personal program
No two golfers have the same physical make up and the same
golf goals. Some golfers will need some sort of flexibility
and stability training while others may want to train to achieve
a spot on a professional tour. Your personal program may take
6 to 12 weeks or it may take longer. Everyone who enters CPG’s
conditioning program leaves with the tools to maintain all
he or she has gained.
