Your swing might be smooth — but is your body supporting it? Whether you’re smashing drives at the local club, training for competition, or limping through 18 holes with nagging pain, our tailored golf physiotherapy services are designed to keep you swinging, scoring, and recovering like a pro.
At BodyMotion Physiotherapy in Melbourne, we specialise in golf injury rehabilitation, performance optimisation, and post-round recovery. No cookie-cutter programs here — just science-backed physio that understands your body, your swing, and your game.
Golf might not be a high-impact contact sport, but it demands a surprising level of precision, mobility, and resilience. The twisting torque of your swing, the long walks between holes, and even your stance at address can all take their toll over time.
The result? A parade of overuse injuries we see all too often:
This is where golf physio makes all the difference — not just treating these issues, but helping prevent them before they interrupt your round (or season).
Physiotherapy for golfers is about more than ice packs and rest. We look at how your body moves — and how it should move — through every phase of your swing.
Our approach integrates:
It’s about swinging smarter, not harder — and moving like your best round is still ahead of you.
Some injuries creep up on you after years of play. Others flare up mid-round and derail your weekend. No matter how they present, our golf injury physio programs are designed to help you return to the course safely and efficiently.
Golfers often rely on lumbar rotation, especially if they lack thoracic mobility. Our treatment focuses on core control, segmental mobility, and safe spinal mechanics — all of which are critical for addressing lower back pain associated with golf.
A smooth swing demands shoulder stability. We’ll improve scapular mechanics and rotator cuff endurance to restore pain-free rotation.
Tired of taping or bracing that achy elbow? Whether it’s medial or lateral, we’ll use load management, grip adjustments, and progressive tendon loading for long-term resolution.
Tight hips reduce swing power and force the spine to compensate. We help y
If you’re stiff in the wrong places or weak in key muscle groups, it’s only a matter of time before performance suffers.
Our golf performance physiotherapy sharpens your movement quality so you can:
Through hands-on therapy, strength training, mobility drills, and feedback from video swing assessments, we’ll unlock the hidden power in your body — even if you’re not a “power” player.
Our golf injury rehabilitation plans help you return to play smarter, not sooner. We treat the root cause of injury — not just the symptoms — with a tailored plan that includes:
We also provide post-round recovery support, ideal for tournament players, golf trips, or back-to-back competition weekends.
If your golf game is your happy place, don’t wait for an injury to take that away. Prevention is everything — and we make it practical, not time-consuming.
Our prevention services include:
It’s ideal for older players, those returning from injury, or anyone playing multiple times per week.

A Relaxation Massage is a great way to pamper yourself, reduce stress and recharge your energy levels. Using a combination of relaxing massage strokes, usually with a lighter pressure, you can opt for a full body massage or choose the areas you would like to have massaged which can include the back, shoulders, legs, feet, arms, hands, neck, head and face.
This is a therapeutic remedial Maintenance Massage which may be recommended to you by your physiotherapist and aims to help you to maintain the results that you have achieved from your Physiotherapy treatments. This massage will be targeted to the area that you had treated by your physio, and will ensure that the muscles continue to work well together to keep you free of pain.
A remedial Therapeutic or Deep Tissue Massage is generally a deeper, firmer pressure and will target particular areas of tightness and restriction in your muscles. You will be asked to provide feedback throughout this massage to assess if the level of pressure is suitable for the area.
A remedial Sports Massage can help to ease any muscular pain post workout or after you have participated in a sporting activity. It can also be beneficial prior to a sporting event to ensure that your muscles are at their peak state, therefore assisting you to perform at your highest possible level.
