Golf Injury Prevention in Woking

If you’ve had to stop playing golf because of pain or injury, getting back out on the course can feel daunting.

Our Return to Golf After Injury service at My Complete Health is designed to help you rebuild confidence, move better and return to play safely, without rushing or risking another setback.

Why returning too quickly is risky

Many golfers feel better for a few days and jump straight back into full swings or 18 holes – only for the same pain to flare up again.
Without a structured plan, injured tissues, joints and muscles often aren’t strong or resilient enough to handle the forces of the golf swing, especially at impact and through rotation.

A smarter approach is to gradually progress from rehab to chipping, to range work, and then to full rounds, checking that your body is coping at each stage.

How we help you return to golf

At My Complete Health, we take a joined‑up approach to your return: chiropractic, massage and strength & rehab coaching can all be part of your plan.

  • Assess your current injury status, movement, and golf demands.
  • Identify what still needs to heal, and what needs to get stronger or more mobile.
  • Build a phased return‑to-golf plan (rehab exercises, practice structure, and on‑course progressions).

For many golfers, we will also recommend a TPI Golf Performance Assessment to see how your body and swing are working together, and to reduce the chance of the same issue returning.

Our team around your comeback

You have access to a full team under one roof in St John’s, Woking.

Chiropractic care

To assess and treat spine and joint mechanics, reduce pain, and improve how you move through the swing.

Sports massage

To ease tight, overloaded muscles and help recovery between practice or rounds.

Strength & rehab coaching

To build the mobility, strength and control you need so your body can tolerate golf again, not just day‑to‑day life.

This team approach is in line with best practice for golfers returning from low‑back and other common golf injuries.

A structured return‑to-golf plan

You won’t be left guessing “what can I do now?” – we’ll guide you through clear stages back to full play.

Recover & Rebuild

We start by understanding your injury history, current symptoms and goals.

Your chiropractor and/or rehab coach will assess movement, strength and control around the injured area (for example, spine, shoulder, elbow or hip) and address pain, stiffness and basic mobility first.

Golf‑specific strength and movement

Once your symptoms are more stable, we layer in golf‑specific strength, mobility and rotational control work.

This might include core and hip work, shoulder and forearm conditioning, and TPI‑informed exercises that match your swing characteristics.

Gradual return to play

When your body is ready, we help you stage your return: starting with putting and short chips, moving into controlled range sessions, and then building towards full rounds.

You’ll get clear guidance on how many balls to hit, how often to practise, and how to increase load without overdoing it.

Matt was recommended to me last year by a friend. I was struggling with a variety of ailments, back and neck pains and headaches. Matt assessed each problem and after each session I have felt so much better and even taller. I’ve been seeing Matt on a regular basis since my first visit which is keeping me well. I have no reservations recommend him.

I have been seeing Matt for over a year now from dealing with issues or just general maintenance and I always come out feeling brand new. Very professional and punctual and is also very flexible with appointments too. I believe you should see a chiro regularly on going.

Totally unprofessional. I travelled 40 minutes for an appointment. Everything was locked up with 2 minutes to the appointment time, so I left. No apology, just rude comments.

I had been recommended to Matt by my cousin and I can understand why. My lower back was in a very bad way and in just two sessions with Matt I am back to normal and the pain has gone. He knew exactly what the issue was and worked his magic. If I get any twinges I will go straight back to him. The staff are lovely and Emma the receptionist is also very friendly and you feel very welcome from the minute you enter. Highly recommend Matt to anyone who has back pain or any physical/muscular pain or strain. You will be in good hands.

The team were amazing and friendly from the minute I walked through the door. I had an initial assessment where Matt got to work straight away. I walked out feeling the immediate benefit. Thanks again, see you soon for my next appointment. Mark

I had an excellent runner’s MOT with Kat. She provided an in-depth analysis with plenty of drills, followed by clear and concise feedback. Would thoroughly recommend
