Mini Golf Program Fits To A Tee

Physical therapist and golfer Catherine Gerson is offering a mini golf program to get you in shape and ready for that first round of golf this spring. The Mind Body Connection will improve your flexibility, your swing and your mental game.

Catherine has teamed up with a PGA pro who runs The Golf School, the largest indoor driving range and putting surface in Boston. Their three-hour program consists of a one-hour swing and video analysis at The Golf School at the Radisson Hotel in Boston and a two-hour golf-specific fitness program with Catherine at the Brae Burn Country Club, Newton.

"My philosophy is to teach people to take care of their bodies so they can prevent injuries and muscle soreness and complete the last hole with nearly the same high energy level as they felt at the first tee," said Catherine. "Whatever exercise program you chose should be simple and fun."

Using the Swiss exercise ball and stretch resistance bands, Catherine teaches the basics of stretching and toning, shows how to avoid injuries specific to golf, gives tips, techniques, and exercise drills that can easily be done at home.

Golf pros and amateurs have embraced Catherine’s Mind Body Program. " Catherine’s exercise program is a regular part of my routine. It has improved my balance during my swing," said Joe Starcez, PGA golf professional at Pine Orchard Yacht and Country Club. "The exercise ball has become a major component of my golf game."

Small group instruction, $200 per person. Gift certificates are available. For more information, contact Catherine online.

PowerAngle™  Racket..." A new angle on comfort." 

Catherine recommends using the PowerAngle tennis racket for preventing tennis elbow as well as the benefit of adding additonal ball spin during play. PowerAngle is ergonomically designed for tennis players who hit a ball with repetitive power and need to maintain muscle strength and health in their arm and wrist and avoid injury from overuse.

Physicians, occupational and physical therapists endorse the PowerAngle diagonal string pattern because of the larger "sweet spot hitting surface" which reduces the impact of string vibration felt by the arm. The equal length diagonal stringing absorbs shock more than the conventional combination of short cross strings and longer main strings on the racket frame.
