R WEEKLY GUIDE TO MANY
OF THE AREA'S GOLF COURSES
Golfers stay healthy
Professional and amateur
golfers turn to chiropractic
care as one of the best
strategies for maintaining
health on and off the course
and achieving the best pos-
sible performance, accord-
ing to the Foundation for
Chiropractic Progress, a
not-for-profit organization
dedicated to increasing pub-
lic awareness of chiroprac-
tic health.
Household names inclua-
ing Tiger" Woods, David Du-
ral, and Padraig Harrington
are just a few of the profes-
sional golfers who rely upon
chiropractors.
"One thing I know
through experience is that I
need to keep seeing my chi-
ropractor, even when I have
a few weeks off from golf,"
says Padraig Harrington,
whose major champi-
onships include two British
()pens and the PGA Cham-
pionship. "Getting ongoing
chiropractic care helps me
to stay injury-free. It also
helps me to deal with symp-
toms when they begin, so
that they don't turn into
bigger injuries down the
road."
Dale Richardson, D.C.,
who has worked alongside
professional golfers for over
21 years, helping them to
reach their full potential
with chiropractic care,
treats Harrington.
Dr. Richardson has
worked on the PGA, Euro-
pean and Australian Tours,
and was the first chiroprac-
tor to be invited to become
a member of the European
Ryder Cup sports medicine
team, where he has partici-
pated on four occasions
including the Belfry,
Oakland Hills, K Club and
Valhalla GC. He has also
been a member of the Inter-
national President's Cup
sports medicine team.
"The most common in-
juries are strains and
sprains in the lower back
and neck, and tendonitis af-
fecting the wrists and fore-
arms due to the repetitive
action and overuse syn-
dromes typical of golf," says
Dr. Richardson. "These in-
juries can be prevented by
taking precautionary mea-
sures, such as conditioning
and proactive healthcare,
both of which are key to op-
timizing performance for
anyone who plays golf."
He explains that some of
the most common injuries
in both professional and
amateur golfers are pre-
ventable, adding, "It is im-
portant to not only treat
these injuries when they
happen, but to also main-
tain optimal heath though
proactive care such as chi-
ropractic, soft tissue thera-
pies and physical therapy."
Dr. Richardson points out
that a multi-disciplinary ap-
proach is key for many pro-
fessional golfers, including
care and treatment from
physical therapists, sports
medical doctors, podia-
trists, psychologists,
acupuncturists, massage
therapists and, of course,
chiropractors.
"These health profession-
als ensure the overall well-
being of golfers so that they
can play at the top of their
game," he concludes.
"Golfers who access treat-
ment by a chiropractor with
multidisciplinary experi-
ence will experience fewer
injuries, perform better,
and achieve greater results.
Restorirg and improving
skeletal and joint mobility
with associated skeletal and
joint stability is a focus of
chiropractic treatment."
