A Success Story: From Back Pain to Back on the Golf Course

One of Michael’s recent patients was a 65-year-old golfer living with constant lower back pain.

  • The pain was nagging throughout the day.
  • Everyday tasks around the house felt restricted.
  • Most importantly, it stopped him from enjoying golf – his passion!

 

Session 1:
Michael began with hands-on therapy: soft tissue work and gentle joint mobilisation. This helped free up the back, ease pain, and restore mobility.

 

Session 2:
The patient returned already feeling a noticeable improvement. Daily activities were easier, and pain levels had dropped. But the goal wasn’t just less pain. It was getting back on the golf course.

 

The Turning Point:
Michael transitioned treatment into the clinic gym, designing a strengthening program tailored to golf movements. The focus was on building stability, hip mobility, and strength to support his back during swings.

 

The Result:
Within just a few weeks, the patient was back playing golf, confident, pain-free, and doing what he loved most.
