Dr. JC Aikenhead - Golf Physio

Dr. JC Aikenhead - Golf Physio I help athletes and active individuals overcome injuries and give them longevity in their activities. We offer 60 min 1 on 1 appointments, only.

We are the opposite of typical Chiropractic and Physical Therapy. The current Chiro/PT field is only looking for more patients per hour, your insurance dictates your care, they hand you off to assistants to do exercises, you get temporary relief, and treatment with no end date. We are only focused on YOU getting back to your activities. We offer customized care plans with an end date. We find the root cause behind your pain and we work for YOU, not the insurance company.

Most golfers shut it down for winter and hope things feel different in April… but nothing changes without reps.

If your back tightens up, your hips don’t rotate, or your swing falls apart under pressure, resting for three months won’t magically solve it.

The off-season is the ONLY time you can actually fix your body, rebuild mechanics, and build speed without the pressure of playing every weekend.

Start now or spend next season playing catch-up again.

You don’t swing slow… you produce power slow.
Here are 4 of my go-to speed-building exercises we use with golfers in our Speed School to build real, transferable swing speed:

1️⃣ Lead Arm Pull + Shift
Teaches you to load the trail side to explode like an athlete.

2️⃣ Rotational med ball scoop toss
Creates elastic recoil through the hips & thorax — your #1 speed source.

3️⃣ Lateral + Accelerate
Trains sequencing, ground forces and thoracic recoil that actually show up in your driver numbers.

4️⃣ Dynamic Start Drill
Teaches you how to “unlock” rotation for more whip.

If you can get these 4 right…
You’re already ahead of 95% of golfers stuck doing band work and static stretches.

Just because your back hurts less in the off-season doesn’t mean it’s healed.

It means you removed the stress… not the problem.

Rest doesn’t fix back pain — it just prolongs the inevitable.

Fix the motions that cause pain → fix the swing that keeps breaking down.

If you want to actually get better before next season… start now.

The Real Reason Your Back Stiffens in the Swing

If your foot and ankle don’t allow the tibia + femur to rotate, the pelvis runs out of options… force comes from the ground up. And your mid-back stiffens up, feels tight.

This is why I teach mobility from the ground → up, not the spine → down.

Fix the relationships, fix the swing.

DM “BACK” and I’ll send you my ground-up test.

“If your trail leg straightens too soon, you lose the ability to load your glutes… and your spine pays for it. Keep the knee flexed, keep the coil, keep the speed.
