Sports Physiotherapy - Golf

Athlete Matters treat all sports injuries regardless of the sport and our list of experts is growing all the time.

At Athlete Matters we identify the cause of your problem by analysing your biomechanics; this may include your golf swing. This will enable us to effectively settle the symptoms with Physiotherapy techniques including the provision of a strength and conditioning exercise programme to prevent recurrence.

  • Low back pain
  • Thoracic spine plain & restriction
  • Subacromial impingement/bursitis/tendonosis
  • Hip pain
  • Golfer's elbow

  • Sacroiliac joint dysfunction
  • Muscle spasm
  • Core muscle weakness

Golf Specific Pilates Classes

We can organise Golf-specific Pilates classes, please contact us for more information.

Pilates is used increasingly by the top sports men and women in golf. Not only by those who have had spinal problems but also by those that want to improve their game. Pilates exercises are designed to re-educate our bodies stabilising muscles to work efficiently and effectively to support the bodies movement. Improved core stability allows us to move freer, with increased ‘feel’ and control. With a stronger platform to work from, the body can develop an increased power generation leading to increased club head speed. Pilates for Golf can lead to increased consistency of your putting, approach and long game. Increased stability releases muscles action, unlocking our body’s potential.

Testimonials From Our Golfing Clients

Tim Dykes

"I contacted athlete matters 18 months ago when my injuries were at their worst. They quickly identified my injuries and the underlying causes. I have visited athlete matters regularly during that time and not only have my injuries eased significantly, but under their advice my background fitness has also improved.

I feel better than ever and better equipped to deal with the stresses and strains of my sport. I would recommend Duncan and the Worsley Sports Injuries Clinic to any athlete!"
