Serving Sarasota’s Padel Community: How Gonstead Chiropractic Keeps You Competing at Your Best
Padel is exploding across Sarasota, Florida — from private clubs and resort courts to new local leagues popping up all over town. Whether you’re smashing volleys at Sarasota’s newest padel complexes or playing pick-up matches with friends under the Gulf Coast sunshine, one thing is clear:
Padel is incredibly fun… and incredibly demanding on the body.
Just like tennis and pickleball, padel players in Sarasota often deal with a familiar lineup of injuries:
Tennis elbow from repetitive swinging
Knee pain from constant pivots and quick changes of direction
Shoulder strain from overhead shots
Lower back tightness after intense, fast-paced rallies
These issues can keep you off the court — unless you take a proactive approach to alignment, biomechanics, and joint health.
Why Padel Players in Sarasota Experience These Common Aches
Padel combines agility, power, speed, and rotational force — and those demands quickly highlight even the smallest misalignments in your body.
Here’s what’s happening behind the scenes:
🎾 Repetitive swings → Tennis elbow and wrist irritation
Overuse of the elbow and wrist joints causes inflammation and altered mechanics, especially when alignment is off.
🦵 Quick lateral movements → Knee pain and instability
Padel requires sudden stops, pivots, and low stances — stressing the knees, ankles, and hips if the kinetic chain isn’t stable.
💥 Overhead smashes → Shoulder dysfunction
Serving and overhead play challenge the rotator cuff and AC joint, especially when the thoracic spine or scapula mechanics are restricted.
🔄 Constant rotation → Lower back strain
Rotational torque during shots demands proper pelvic and spinal alignment. Even slight misalignment can lead to spasm, stiffness, or chronic lower back discomfort.
When one joint isn’t functioning correctly, compensation patterns kick in — increasing the likelihood of injury.
