Adult golfers with a movement or distance question
You may have noticed a movement restriction, a change in distance, or discomfort that affects your golf. An evaluation clarifies the clinical question and whether care, exercise or another referral makes sense. Distance that left over a single season, movement that is clearly one sided, and stiffness that outlasts the round are the patterns most worth measuring. Start with distance and movement, or see what normal age related change looks like in the data.
Golfers with pain during or after play
The lower back and the elbow lead every study of golf injuries, and both usually announce themselves gradually. Our clinical guides cover golf and low back pain, including the red flags that change the plan, and telling golfer's elbow from tennis elbow in 60 seconds. Pain that is limiting your golf is a clinical question, and the evaluation is built to answer it: examination, explanation, written findings and a plan. Any recommended treatment is scheduled and billed separately at DT Chiropractic or with your chosen provider; an evaluation never requires a treatment purchase.
Senior golfers planning to play for decades
The average golfer loses 13 yards between their 50s and 60s, and the losses behind that number, rotation, strength and balance, are substantially trainable. An evaluation measures where you stand; our senior golf program shows what the training looks like, and the longevity research explains what regular golf gives back.
Junior golfers and their families
A developing golfer needs an age appropriate evaluation that considers growth, training, recovery, other sports and the player's own goals. Parent or guardian participation and consent requirements are arranged before the visit. Explore junior assessments.
Golfers returning after surgery or injury
Care should fit the restrictions and guidance of the treating team. We discuss whether Magnolia is an appropriate part of that plan before scheduling, including the records or clearance needed. The return research is encouraging, and we have summarized it for joint replacement and spine surgery. Explore return to golf coordination.
Coaches and facilities
Refer an individual player, arrange evaluations at your facility, or bring Daniel into a player's existing team. You lead the coaching; the evaluation adds the medical and movement layer. Explore working together.
When another service is a better fit
An evaluation may identify a reason for medical evaluation or referral, and we say so plainly when it does. Magnolia is not an emergency service. If you need urgent help, use an appropriate urgent or emergency care service.
