Golf Physical Therapy in New Berlin

Golf Physical Therapy

Golf demands a unique combination of mobility, stability, rotational power, and precision. The repetitive nature of the golf swing, combined with the torque it generates through your spine, hips, and shoulders, creates specific injury patterns that require specialized understanding. At Ares Physical Therapy in Elm Grove, we provide expert treatment for golfers who want to play pain-free, improve performance, and enjoy the game for years to come.

Common Golf Injuries We Treat:

Lower back pain and disc issues
Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis)
Rotator cuff injuries and shoulder impingement
Neck pain and stiffness
Hip pain and labral tears
Wrist tendonitis and injuries
Knee pain from walking the course
Rib and oblique strains
Sciatica and nerve-related pain
Chronic muscle strains affecting swing mechanics

Why Golfers Need Specialized Care:

The golf swing is one of the most biomechanically complex movements in sports. It requires tremendous thoracic rotation, hip mobility, shoulder flexibility, and core stability, all coordinated in less than two seconds. Pain or restriction in any area affects your entire swing. At Ares Physical Therapy, we understand these demands and assess your complete movement system to identify what’s limiting your game.

Our Golf-Specific Approach:

We treat golfers who value their time on the course and want efficient, effective solutions. Our rehabilitation doesn’t just eliminate pain. We identify the mobility restriction, strength imbalance, or movement dysfunction affecting your swing, and we address it systematically. The result is pain-free golf and often improved performance.

What Your Treatment May Include:

Golf swing analysis to identify mechanical contributors to injury
Advanced manual therapy to restore mobility in spine, hips, and shoulders
Rotational mobility work specific to the golf swing
Core stability and power development for consistent ball striking
Progressive strengthening to support swing mechanics and prevent re-injury
Dry needling and cupping for chronic tension and overuse injuries
Flexibility programming to maintain range of motion
Return-to-play protocols that get you back on the course safely

Performance Enhancement for Golfers:

Many golfers visit us not because of injury, but to improve their game. Limited hip rotation, thoracic stiffness, or poor core stability all affect distance, consistency, and accuracy. We provide assessments to identify physical limitations that may be costing you yards off the tee or consistency with your irons, then build programs to address them.

Injury Prevention:

Golf may appear low-impact, but the repetitive stress and rotational forces take a toll, particularly as we age. We work with golfers to develop mobility routines, strengthening programs, and movement strategies that allow you to play regularly without chronic pain or injury.

For the Dedicated Golfer:

Whether you play several times weekly at your club, compete in member tournaments, or travel for golf destinations, staying healthy and playing well matters. At Ares Physical Therapy, you receive personalized attention in a private, professional environment. We respect your time and understand the importance of maintaining your game.

Expert Clinical Care:

All treatment is performed by our board-certified Doctor of Physical Therapy, who understands golf biomechanics and the physical demands the game places on the body. You receive the highest level of clinical expertise delivered in a focused, one-on-one setting.

Whether you’re managing chronic back pain affecting your swing, recovering from shoulder surgery, or seeking to add distance and consistency to your game, Ares Physical Therapy provides the specialized care golfers need to play their best, pain-free golf.
