What do The Masters and your lower back have in common?

At Saunders Physiotherapy, we’re inspired by the precision and performance on display at The Masters. Just like the pros competing, your body needs the right mechanics to perform at its best.

But here’s something many golfers don’t realise…

👉 Low back pain is the most common injury in golf

And it’s rarely just about the back.

Our Physiotherapist, Craig Fountain, uses principles from the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI), to assess how your body moves as a whole:

- Hip mobility
- Thoracic rotation
- Core control
- Swing mechanics

Because when one area lacks mobility or stability, the lower back often takes the load, both on and off the course.

⛔ Pain isn’t something you should “play through”
✅ It’s a signal your body needs a better strategy

Whether you’re chasing a green jacket or just want to move pain-free, we’re here to help you stay at the top of your game.

The right assessment can be a game-changer

Big congratulations to the State U16 Girls, finishing joint title winners at the National Development Champs, after an undefeated two from two campaign! 🏆🥇

Our physiotherapist Laura recently travelled with the team for the championships. In the lead up, Laura was the physiotherapist for their game against WA at Unley Oval, before travelling to Melbourne for their match against Vic Metro! ✈️

“Disc bulge”
“Degeneration”
“Signal loss”

If you see these terms on your scan, do not panic. Research shows that these findings are present in majority of people- increasing as we age - with ZERO pain. They are just normal age related changes.

We don’t treat the image findings, but the whole person in front of us. We do this by gathering all relevant evidence from your history - including your previous scans, as well as your physical presentation prior to making clear clinical decisions to improve your pain and function

Just had your ACL surgery? One of our physios, Laura, demonstrates the key exercises that are vital in the early stages after an ACL operation. Early rehab focuses on restoring knee range of motion (especially full extension), gradually improving knee flexion and managing pain and swelling. Getting these foundations right early sets you up for everything that comes next in your rehab.

THE BIG V💙🤍 Dr Steve Saunders had the privilege of travelling with the Vics, working alongside and getting to know some of the competition’s best players.
It was a fierce hit out, with both teams attacking the contest hard from the first bounce.
Proud to support athletes performing at the highest level and keeping them ready to compete when it matters most. Congrats to the players, coaches, and the AFL.
