FAQs
Where did Body Balance come from?
The program was developed by the first Director of Physical Therapy on the PGA Tour. He had treated over 230 of the 300 top PGA Tour golfers. While touring with the PGA, he developed various physical therapy techniques to help get the body in better balance so a golfer can better execute the golf swing.

Is Body Balance a gym?
No. You won’t find any big machines or weights like your average gym facilities. Body Balance supplies the equipment, exercises and instruction needed to focus on golf specific exercises.
What equipment do you use?
Most of the equipment used at a Body Balance Center is rather simple. An exercise ball, rubber tubing, and a golfers' own body weight are the most common and allow you to easily do your exercises at your home or office. These items are available at the Body Balance Pro Shop.
What is the DBS?
The DBS, Dynamic Balance System, monitors the golfers’ center of gravity through the swing, while providing immediate visual feedback. This system allows a golfer the chance to see, in graphic detail, how they maintain their balance throughout their swing.
