Is Back Pain Slowing Down Your Golf Game?

  3. Is Back Pain Slowing Down Your Golf Game?

Quite the contrary – despite what many would prefer to believe, your back pain is not actually hurting your golf game. Your golf game is hurting your back!

Yes, you read that correctly.

The stance that one takes as one prepares for and executes a golf swing, compresses the spine unnaturally, and can cause quite a bit of pain.

Dr. Kim recently sat down with Dr. Chris Rogers of the San Diego Orthobiologics Medical Group to chat about what happens to our spine during a swing and how to deal with any back pain that may arise.

And for those of you fortunate enough not to experience back pain on the golf course, continue to practice healthy habits, and be sure to follow our 4 Secrets for a Healthy Spine on the Golf Course.
