Golf is a sport that places a great deal of stress and abnormal forces on the back, the lower extremities, and the feet and ankles. Golf requires you to swing your golf club, and walk some distances on uneven surfaces. Both of these activities can cause the body pain. The golf swing forces the entire body to rotate as if it were one unit, rather than what it is: many individual joints, muscles, and bones working together as one.
If the body is firmly and properly supported by our feet and ankles, then the structures above will work more harmoniously together, and function as a pain free unit.
When the feet are not in a neutral position, and do not line-up properly with the leg at the ankle, then we will experience frequent injuries, fatigue, and pain. Again, Pronation is the most common cause of the feet's inability to function Properly when walking on uneven surfaces.
Footlabs have dedicated time and research into the actions and motions of the feet during the golf swing process and walking over uneven terrain on the golf course.Working with various PGA professionals, Medical professionals and numerous Golf clubs and Centres we aim to offer a comprehensive range of products that will help:-
