To all the golfers out there, do you wear your orthotics in your golf shoes? Did you know that how you stand in your golf shoes can affect your swing? ️
We often get golfers in the clinic. When I hear that they golf often, I ask if they wear orthotics in their shoes. While some might, others think it’s unimportant as they take a cart. So I have them swing an imaginary club (or shoe horn) to see what their feet, ankles, knees and hips are doing in their swing. ⁣
What am I watching for?⁣
⛳️ Weight distribution on the feet as they address the ball⁣
⛳️ Ankle movement and stability in backswing, impact, follow through ⁣
⛳️ Knee position during swing and whether any hyperextension occurs ⁣
⛳️ Hip rotation and whether they can stand up at finish ⁣
There’s so much we can do with orthotics for your golf shoes to help change positions of the body as well as to stabilize you during the swing!!! I’ve watched countless hours of golf swings and have researched the biomechanics of the lower body. I’ve worked with golf pros and physiotherapists to get a better understanding of the actions and movements. ⁣
Would you like your lower body golf swing assessed? Just tell us when you’re in for an assessment and bring in your golf shoes!⁣
