“What we think, we become,” the Buddha was reputed saying. This principle is also at the heart of Pilates- an innovative system of movement evolved from the principles of Joseph Pilates. The exercises are designed to stretch, strengthen, and balance the body. Emphasis on proper breath; correct spinal and pelvic alignment; and concentration on smooth, flowing, movement; leads one to become aware of how their body feels, where it is in space, and how to control its movements. It is through this attention and awareness that one begins to retrain the body to move in a safer, more efficient, pattern of motion. The goal of Pilates is a fusion of the mind and body, so that eventually, without thinking about it, the body will move with economy, balance, and grace.

A balanced body is flexible, strong and fluid. These attributes symbolize the foundation of a solid golf game. Many of our clients are avid golfers, so we use several modalities to assist them inenhancing their game.

Pilates: Pilates builds strength and flexibility simultaneously, develops core strength, improves posture and alignment, and creates stability. These are all key components to a swing.

GYROTONIC®: Using flexibility and strength, it increases range of motion and develops coordination. Training with GYROTONIC® provides many of exercises for every part of the golf swing. Golfers at every level including PGA Tour Pros & PGA Professionals use this as a source of training.

The benefits of GYROTONIC® training for golfers include:rotational ability will increase, increased strength and flexibility will result in further drive distance, better contact and directional control of the ball, while preventing or Limiting potential injury

Yoga: To create a symmetrical golf swing, both sides of the body need to be balanced. We are often predominantly stronger and or tighter on one side of the body. Yoga can help to restore, open and regain alignment. In addition, using breath and awareness, yoga is an effective way to increase and maintain focus.

Acupuncture: While this ancient technique has many benefits, we find that regular acupuncture helps to relax the mind and builds clarity, which definitely comes in handy in a frustrating golf game!

Acupuncture also proves very beneficial in treating those acute and chronic injuries which may be holding you back from optimal performance in your golf game.
