After nearly every round of golf, I would struggle with a sore back that would limit my ability to get back out to play again the next day or so. It got to the point where I was spending more time before the round trying to stretch and prepare to play and avoid soreness than actually playing. Overall, golf was becoming less enjoyable until I met the guys at Dynamic Performance. They gave me the right strategies to play pain free, and allowed me to spend my time before the round on the range and practice green as opposed to stretching. I was able to play 18 holes and wake up the next morning without back stiffness after only a couple of visits, and I can’t recommend this company enough for any injury you may be struggling with for long periods of time.

He is patient & always happy to answer questions. I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him! If you having ANY pain and you want to live pain free & get back to doing the things you love call this guy you won’t regret it!
