Our awesome physiotherapist, Corey Pritchett, has been helping the Golf Newfoundland Labrador -GNL Junior Development Team with their strength and conditioning!
A practical, year round strength conditioning program geared toward golf provides clients/golfers with improvements in their muscular strength, flexibility, cardiovascular capacity, and in their power. It should be the golfer’s aim to avoid injury rather than deal with the pain-staking process of rehabilitating injury.
If your swing is struggling, or you're experiencing pain post game, physiotherapist Corey Pritchett can help. Our objective exam will include feet, knee, hip/spine position, shoulder, arm position, and grip. In addition, an evaluation of flexibility and strength. A videotaped analysis of the swing can be performed and a golf specific rehabilitation program can be implemented.

Read MoreBen Rogers is a 16 year old high school student who injured his ACL in October of 2014 playing basketball. He underwent surgery to repair it in February 2015. The long road to recovery required many sessions of physiotherapy with Rob Kelland. Rob was a therapist, mentor and friend to Ben and helped him to recover physically and gather the mental strength to once again play the sport with the same confidence and desire. The experience left Ben with a greater appreciation of human will and motivation. Rob was an incredible force and continues to work with Ben to ensure he looks after his new knee and keeps it in top shape. What a professional and team at Nova Physio.
- Richard Rogers and Dr. Sheilagh McGrath
