"I am a professional golfer and have been  since 1999. I played on the Nationwide Tour from 2004-2006 and am currently the leading money earner on the Golden State Tour presented by Cleveland Golf.

I am only 5'10" and 150 lbs, and have often heard people say, "If Dan could just hit the ball a little further, he would be really tough to beat.” Taking that constructive criticism to heart, I started working out with a personal trainer (Sandra Miguel) and she really improved my strength and conditioning. After a while, Sandra noticed that I needed to increase my range of motion in order to fully utilize my newfound strength. She referred me to Performance Chiropractic. 

I knew after my first visit that this was unlike other chiropractors I had visited in the past. Dr. Chris Barney seemed to take a more genuine and personal approach to his work. After a few visits, I knew we were onto something great.  I was able to increase the flexibility and range of motion in my neck and torso drastically in only 3 or 4 visits. I saw an immediate improvement in my golf swing. I was able to consistently hit the ball further and more accurately without overswinging.

Recently I had a physical set back. I hurt my shoulder during a swing in a tournament and the pain wouldn't go away. I was unable to play with this pain, so I called Performance Chiropractic. What happened next really surprised me. Dr. Barney called me back and said he would like to meet me at the golf course to watch me make some swings. My Grandpa used to tell me about doctors making house calls, but I thought those doctors were extinct! After watching me hit a few balls, he applied some pink and blue tape to different areas of my back and shoulder. At first I thought he was crazy, but this actually worked. I was able to hit balls with little to no pain for the first time in weeks. I felt really fortunate to have him on my side.

I would recommend Performance Chiropractic to anyone, especially to those who play golf and are searching for a way to hit the ball further and with more accuracy. I have learned over the years that if you want to improve your game significantly, start by fixing and making your body healthier. Performance Chiropractic can greatly help anyone achieve these goals."
