Panshanger golf club is located in Welwyn Garden City and is considered one of the best 18 hole public courses in England. They have other amenities that make coming a relaxing experience to improve to your fairway hitting, chipping and putting skills. After a day out on the greens, you might relax with a game of squash, or an ale and dinner at the course restaurant. Since 1975, they have been catering to the general public providing food, fun, and pleasure.
For those who have struggled to learn this game, and wish to keep your ball in the areas where it is suppose to go, they understand that it is not easy learning all the complexities. Not only can the par 70 course be daunting, but if you do not really know how to get a ball onto the greens, it can be frustrating. That is way they have an area where you never have to use your woods.
Now, putting is a whole other skill set. Here you need to know how to read the little curves and hill, and be able to hit the ball at the right speed so as not to stop it too short from the hole, or make it go by too far. They have another area where you should work on those techniques.
Whether you scored well, or just hit things into the water or wooded areas all day, there is nothing like going into an air conditioned tavern to sit and wind down with cold brew. They have just the right place called the Fairway Tavern where you can accomplish this task.
Of if you still some energy to burn, you can stop at the squash and play a few rounds and then head to the bar. Later there might some pool and dart games with friends and strangers waiting for you.
There is something special about spending the day at Panshanger golf course. A place for family and friends to meet and get in a round, but make sure you reserve a spot, because there are plenty of others who think the same way, too.

Why do more than 75% of golfers suffer from golf related injuries at some point during their lives? Many people think of golf as a low impact and minimal physical activity but this is far from the truth. In order to achieve a club head speed of 90-100 mph, the body needs to recruit 90 percent of its musculature in bursts of movement. Not only are we engaging our core but the motion is un-natural with increased rotation needed to generate power.
The average golfer shows up a couple of minutes before their tee time and starts playing, without a stretching or a proper warm up. This leads to many types of injuries. Other contributing factors are insufficient flexibility, limited joint and spinal motion and poor swing mechanics.
The golf swings requires the spine to rotate, bend to the side and extend almost simultaneously. The area that is mostly affected is the thoracolumbar junction. This is the area of the spine just below the ribcage. Many golfers develop pain in this area due to the fact that this area of the spine is not meant to bend sideways and rotate. The joint position is designed to flex and extend and therefore the golf swing is an unnatural motion for the body. Further complicating matters is that golf is a “one-sided” activity and can therefore cause muscular imbalances, tighter or overdeveloped muscles on one side versus the other. Regular golf-specific strength training and stretching routines in conjunction with spinal adjustments can restore ranges of motion and thus tremendously decreasing the risk of a golf injury.
In order to produce a powerful and precise swing, energy needs to be transferred from the lower limbs, up the torso and out the shoulder and arms for a proper follow-through. Any interruption along this chain causes a loss of momentum, thus resulting in an inefficient and less powerful swing. Tight muscles, old injuries and scar tissue formation not only limit one’s performance, but also decreases overall flexibility, which leads to new injuries.
The flexibility of a joint depends on many factors, particularly the length and relaxation of muscles and ligaments surrounding it. The shape of the bones, integrity of the cartilage and joint position all play a key role. These factors need to be addressed simultaneously, in order to decrease the risk of injury and increase performance. Golfers should engage in proper strength training and flexibility routines simultaneously ensuring that the spine and other associated joints are moving through their full range of motion. Once these factors are addressed, the overall risk of injuries will be dramatically decreased.

More and more you are seeing professional golfers use chiropractic care to stay at the top of their games. Lori West, a professional golfer, says that the reason she is still playing golf today is because of chiropractic care. Almost 2 decades ago she visited a chiropractor for the first time and says that it immediately improved her golf game.
As you look at the golf swing, in and of itself, it is quite hard on the back. As you work to perfect your swing it puts a tremendous amount of strain on your spine. This strain comes because as you swing through the golf ball, the hips stop at one point while your shoulders continue to rotate. As a Singapore chiropractor I see this all the time with my golfing patients. The result is back pain.
Here’s some chiropractic advice. Before your game, do some basic stretches. Stretch out the hamstrings and groin area. Put a club across your shoulders and lean left and right. Get in a position of where you would be in a swing and bend left and right. Grab a club behind your back and raise it up, stretching your shoulder muscles. Grab the club backwards – so if you normally swing right-handed, you’d grab it like you’d be swinging left-handed- and take 10 practice swings that way. You’re stretching different muscles and it will help you loosen up considerably. Do neck stretches. Stiff neck muscles inhibit the rest of the body from turning freely. Anything that helps your flexibility eventually helps with your game. As you get older, your swing naturally shortens since the muscles aren’t as supple. During the winter, work on stretching the muscles of the arms, shoulders and back.
Flexibility is very important for older golfers. Also, you have to have good balance if you want to hit the golf ball consistently. A healthy spine is paramount to proper balance and posture. Improve your balance and you’ll improve your consistency. If needed, orthotic stabilizers for your shoes can help improve balance so your swing is better.
Chiropractors care for your body as a whole, not just the back. So if your golf game is feeling out of sync, chiropractic may be just the very adjustment that your body and game needs!
