Why mobility and movement matter just as much as your technique
Struggling with your swing?
If your golf swing feels restricted, inconsistent, or uncomfortable—it may not be down to poor technique.
Many golfers spend hours working on drills, grip, and swing path, but neglect the role of their body. Mobility, stability, and control all play a part in your performance.
At Oak Health Osteopathy in Cheadle Hulme, our Golf Injury and Performance Clinic is here to help. As a TPI (Titleist Performance Institute) Certified Medical Professional, I assess how your body moves—and how that affects your game.
Your body is your first club
Your swing is powered by more than skill. It relies on:
Mobility – Are your joints moving well, or restricted?
Stability – Can your body stay controlled through your swing?
Balance – Are you shifting weight smoothly and efficiently?
Limitations in these areas often lead to compensations. That’s when you start to overload your back, hips, shoulders, or elbows.
Our approach
We use a combination of:
TPI movement screening
Osteopathic treatment to reduce restriction and improve motion
Rehab exercises to support joint control and reduce risk of strain
Shockwave therapy, if chronic tendon pain is part of the picture
This isn’t just rehab—it’s performance care tailored to the physical demands of golf.
Why performance and injury prevention go together
The most common golf injuries—lower back pain, shoulder issues, golfer’s elbow—often start with poor movement patterns.
By correcting these patterns, we help you:
Reduce pain
Avoid injury
Improve performance
Book your golf movement assessment
Whether you're aiming to recover from pain or get more out of your swing, we’ll build a plan that helps you move—and play—better.
