MEET YOUR NEW FLEXIBLE FRIEND
Professional and amateur golfers the world over have been forced to battle on manfully with various aches and pains over the years in their quest to conquer the fairways.Golf legends Jack Nicklaus, Severiano Ballesteros and Freddie Couples have all been plagued by back trouble during their careers while how many times have you been forced to pull out of your monthly medal because of pain in the lumbar region or a bad knee?

But help for aching backs, knees, legs and elbows is now at hand in the form of Flexiswing - a unique new home therapy system that promises speedy and effective relief from muscle and back pain leaving you time to concentrate on improving your game.

Flexiswing has been designed for golfers of all ages and standards to aid flexibility and movement when swinging a club by reducing inflammation and driving pain away naturally.

Michael Trompetto, managing director of TensCare Limited who have designed and manufactured Flexiswing, said:

"Flexiswing is a device that has been designed to improve a player's flexibility and we believe it can ultimately have a big influence on golf throughout the world.

"It is based on the hot and cold treatment which reduces inflammation and that is what this machine does in the comfort of your own home.

"Golf is a big market. For example, people pay GBP 300 buying a new golf club and becoming a member of a golf club is very expensive but being pain-free when you swing a club is equally as important.

"There is nothing as revolutionary as Flexiswing available at present and we looked at what we could do to help all golfers."

Used and recognised by physiotherapists worldwide, Flexiswing uses medically-approved electrical stimulation to go deep to the point of the inflamed area and has the added advantage of being small enough to carry around while people go about their daily lives.

Trompetto, a keen golfer and captain of the prestigious Royal Automobile Club near Epsom, Surrey, hit upon the idea after being sidelined by a crippling back injury that threatened to keep him off the course for two months.

"I play a lot of golf but suffer from a very bad back," said Trompetto, a 12- handicapper.

"On the last occasion I pulled my back it was quite severe. I was in agony and could barely move.

"Previously when I've damaged my back I haven't been able to play for between six to eight weeks. I normally get it sorted out by going to see my chiropractor but he wasn?t available so I tried this machine.

"I used it incessantly the first night and it certainly had an effect. It loosened me up to such an extent that I was able to play with no ill effects two days later. It was amazing."

Ian Howieson, golf professional at the Royal Automobile Club and senior tutor at the PGA Training Academy at The Belfry, has already given the new device his full backing and believes Flexiswing has a major part to play in helping ailing golfers across the country.

Howieson said: "The Flexiswing allows golfers to move more freely and improve their swing. Many of my pupils have benefited significantly."

Unlike most home therapy systems, Flexiswing can be used almost anywhere thanks to its small size and belt clip with the average treatment time lasting between 30-45 minutes.

Units cost just GBP 199.50, including VAT, and come complete with their own rechargeable battery, mains charger, self adhesive pads and detailed instruction booklet in a black zipped case.
