Golf-Specific Comprehensive Stretching is utilized for movement preparation before sport and for recovery. Offered by the clinical staff at Golf & Body NYC, we address the main golf components of the body using advanced stretching and manual therapy techniques, pressure points and deep tissue work. Addressing tightness and asymmetries, we start from the feet and calf muscles up through the hip complex. From the hips, we continue into the lumbar and postural muscles, including the shoulder complex and neck. This process will release tissue restrictions promoting ease of movement and improved mobility for the golf swing. The sequence and areas of stretching can be adjusted according to the needs of the individual. Stretching sessions are 30 minutes. A 15-minute version is offered as well.
Our Licensed Massage Therapists provide bodywork solutions specific to your needs as a golfer focusing on the core stability muscles and rotation components of the body. We treat muscle imbalances, overuse strain, and postural restrictions targeting muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints and connective tissue as well as the lymphatic vessels. This helps prevent future injuries and aides in recovery from training to improve muscular efficiency, thereby maximizing your performance.
Acupuncture is incorporated as an added service in the process of releasing superficial and deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue which is a clinically effective way to enhance movement function. Increasing range of motion, flexibility and circulation through massage and acupuncture will benefit our golfers after training or playing a round of golf.
