Play Longer. Play Smarter. Play Without Pain.
Whether you're swinging a club, hitting a serve, or returning a volley, staying active through sports like golf, tennis, and pickleball keeps you moving — and smiling. But for aging joints and tendons, repeated motion can lead to pain, fatigue, or injury.
At Doc Ortho, we provide targeted braces and supports to help older adults protect their joints, improve performance, and stay in the game — without discomfort slowing them down.
Why Joint Support Matters in Rec Sports
Golf, tennis, and pickleball require repeated swings, rotations, and impact movements — which can stress joints and soft tissue over time. Common concerns include:
- Elbow strain (tennis elbow/golfer’s elbow)
- Knee fatigue from pivoting or long walks
- Wrist overuse from gripping and strokes
- Shoulder tightness or bursitis from repeated swings
- Ankle rolls or instability on quick side steps
According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), recreational athletes over 50 are at higher risk of overuse injuries — but protective bracing significantly lowers the risk while improving comfort and control.
