Golf is a game of precision, balance, and focus. For those who experience vertigo, these essential qualities can feel frustratingly out of reach. However, with strategic adjustments and tools like AV wristbands, golfers can continue to enjoy the sport they love despite the challenges posed by vertigo.
In this post, we’ll explore what vertigo is, its impact on golfers, and how you can manage its symptoms to stay safe and competitive on the course. We’ll also highlight inspiring stories of professional golfers like Jason Day who have faced vertigo head-on and found ways to succeed.
What is Vertigo?
Vertigo is a sensation of spinning or dizziness, often caused by issues within the inner ear. It’s a symptom rather than a condition and can vary in intensity from mild to debilitating.
Common Causes of Vertigo
-
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): Dislodged calcium crystals in the inner ear send false signals to the brain, causing dizziness.
-
Meniere’s Disease: A chronic condition that affects the inner ear, often accompanied by hearing loss and tinnitus.
-
Head Injuries: Trauma to the head can damage the inner ear, leading to vertigo.
-
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF): Emerging research, including a study by Dr. Martin L. Pall, PhD, suggests that EMF exposure may contribute to neurological symptoms like dizziness and vertigo.
How Does Vertigo Affect Golfers?
Golf demands physical stability and mental clarity. Vertigo can disrupt both, making it difficult to:
-
Maintain Balance: Essential for a steady swing, vertigo-induced balance issues can lead to mishits and increased injury risk.
-
Focus on the Game: Dizziness and nausea can sap concentration, leading to poor shot decisions and frustration.
-
Endure a Round: Prolonged symptoms can turn an enjoyable game into a physical challenge.
Famous Golfers Who Battled Vertigo
Jason Day
Jason Day’s struggles with vertigo are well-documented. During the 2015 U.S. Open, Day collapsed on the course due to vertigo but continued playing, showcasing incredible resilience. Reflecting on his experience, Day stated, "From the vertigo, I found out how far I can push myself physically and also mentally." He later adjusted his routines to manage symptoms, focusing on hydration, balance, and reducing stress.
David Duval
Former world number one David Duval has also dealt with vertigo, which affected his career at its peak. His experience highlights the importance of finding effective coping mechanisms to maintain consistency on the course.
Bryson DeChambeau
Known for his analytical approach to golf, DeChambeau has faced vertigo-like symptoms due to sinus issues. His commitment to physical and mental preparation underscores how golfers can adapt to health challenges.
Tips for Managing Vertigo Symptoms While Golfing
If you’re a golfer dealing with vertigo, these strategies can help you stay in the game:
-
Avoid Sudden Movements: Move deliberately to prevent triggering dizziness.
-
Hydrate: Dehydration can worsen symptoms; drink plenty of water before and during your round.
-
Use Relaxation Techniques: Deep breathing and meditation can reduce stress, a common vertigo trigger.
-
Take Breaks: Rest if symptoms flare up, and don’t push yourself too hard.
-
Improve Core Strength: Exercises like planks and bridges can enhance stability and reduce the impact of vertigo on your balance.
Can AV Edge Products Help?
AV wristbands with EF Technology provide a natural, non-invasive way to support balance and energy, making them a valuable tool for golfers managing vertigo. Drawing on over 15 years of research and development, these wristbands harmonize the body’s bioelectrical field to counteract the effects of electro-pollution and promote overall well-being.
Key Benefits for Golfers with Vertigo
-
Balance Enhancement: Vertigo disrupts the inner ear’s equilibrium, affecting physical stability. AV wristbands can interact with your bioelectrical field to restore balance, leading to more consistent swings and fewer missteps.
-
Improved Focus and Clarity: Many golfers report enhanced mental clarity while wearing AV wristbands, allowing them to better navigate the challenges of a round.
-
Energy Boost: By supporting ATP production, AV wristbands provide a steady, natural energy boost without the crashes associated with caffeine or supplements.
-
Stress Reduction: The wristbands promote a more harmonious internal environment, reducing anxiety and creating a calmer mindset—essential for managing vertigo symptoms.

How Does It Work?
AV wristbands leverage advanced EF Technology to negate the effects of EMFs, 5G, and RF radiation, which have been linked to neurological disturbances like vertigo. By fostering a more balanced internal state, these wristbands can:
-
Enhance Blood Flow: Improved circulation to the brain reduces dizziness and promotes sharper focus.
-
Support Cellular Health: Encouraging ATP production helps sustain energy levels, critical for enduring long rounds.
-
Promote Overall Wellness: Beyond vertigo relief, users report benefits like reduced joint pain, better sleep, and heightened alertness.

Unlike medications or quick fixes, AV wristbands are a natural solution that integrates seamlessly into your daily routine. They’re non-invasive, comfortable, and designed to last for months, offering consistent support for your physical and mental well-being.
Exercises to Support Balance and Stability
Incorporate these simple exercises into your routine to build strength and improve balance:
-
Hip Circles: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and make small circles with your hips.
-
Bird Dog: On hands and knees, extend one arm forward and the opposite leg back. Hold for 30 seconds and switch.
-
Single-Leg Stance: Balance on one foot for 30 seconds, then switch legs. Gradually increase the duration.
