Addressing Golf Back Pain

Back pain from golf can be caused by a variety of factors such as poor posture, improper swing mechanics, or overuse. To address this, it is important to first identify the cause of the pain and then work on correcting it. Strengthening exercises for the core and back muscles can help improve posture and stability while stretching and mobility exercises can help reduce muscle tension and improve range of motion. Additionally, and depending on your level of pain, cause of pain, etc., it may be helpful to work with a golf coach, physical therapist, or medical exercise specialist who can provide guidance on proper swing mechanics and identify any areas of weakness or imbalance that may be contributing to the pain. As always, it is important to listen to your body and avoid pushing through pain to prevent further injury.
