30 Point Analysis of Golf Body Screen

Most of you would have wished that you could play like Tiger Woods while out golfing with friends. Fortunately, with the help of Golf Body Screen, that is an attainable goal. Golf is a strenuous game that requires you to be at your physical peak to avoid injuries to the wrist, shoulder, hand, back, elbows etc. Today, alternative medicines like chiropractic which is a form of manipulating the spine and nerves ensure that you can be in control of your body once again.

Improving your game and avoiding injuries requires you to follow a set of customised exercises which have been prescribed for you. The chiropractor first studies your full swing by doing a Golf Body Screen to identify your mistakes.

Dynamic & static posture

Posture refers to the body's alignment with respect to earth's gravity. A good posture ensures even distribution of this force so that no part gets over-stressed. When you are still, your body is in a static posture and when in motion, your body has a dynamic posture. Poor posture can have a negative impact on your game in addition to other health complications.

Weight distribution

It is important that your stance during the swing should be such that your body weight gets distributed under your feet and you have a slight bend forward with a knee flex. Incorrect weight distribution can place the ball at a wrong distance leading to a poor shot.

Weight transfer

For a powerful and accurate shot, you have to transfer your weight from one side to other while keeping the other parts of the body still. When weight transference is done improperly, your swing will suffer and the shot will not be accurate. A chiropractor can analyze your mistakes and suggest techniques to ensure that you learn how to shift your weight properly.

Swing center movement

There should be very less movement to the swing centre for proper contact.

Centre of gravity positions

Centre of gravity refers to the point where a body can be perfectly balanced. A slight change in its position can have a major effect on your stability, thus affecting your swing.

Rotations

Another factor to check is the rotation of your body. If this is done incorrectly, your swing will lack power and also cause injuries. A Golf Body Screen will determine if you are rotating your body incorrectly.

Wrist movements

Since golf is a game of power and strength, weak wrists will spoil your shot at the time of impact. There are many exercises to strengthen your wrists. Before commencing on an exercise routine, consult a qualified practitioner to avoid aggravating any existing physical condition.

Head movement

Many golfers make the mistake of allowing their head to shift laterally and away from the center of the body after commencing the swing. It is advisable to keep your head still when the ball is being hit so that it lands at the right spot.

Spine angles

As your spine angle needs to be fixed even though your body tilts during the swing, your body needs to be flexible enough to maintain the correct posture.

A perfect golf swing is a series of biomechanical movements executed accurately. If you are interested in achieving a perfect golf score, do consult a good chiropractor who will study your swing phase by phase and instruct you on the right technique. Once you receive quality guidance, do practice these movements regularly to make your swing perfect.
