Here's the product Rory McIlroy used to sort his back pain out on the PGA Tour
Rory McIlroy relied on doTERRA's Deep Blue Stick to soothe his back muscles and provide comfort at the Tour Championship.
PGA Tour superstar Rory McIlroy leaned on doTERRA's Deep Blue Stick in between golf swings to soothe his back muscles and provide comfort as the Tour Championship progressed at East Lake.
McIlroy, 34, sustained a lower back injury earlier last week and he was seen in a lot of pain as he valiantly limped to a level-par 70 in the first round of the FedEx Cup finale.
As the tournament continued, McIlroy's back pain steadily improved and the defending FedEx champion eventually finished in solo fourth, albeit 13 strokes behind runaway winner Viktor Hovland.
Back pain is one of the most common injuries for all golfers around the world.
But thankfully there are many stretches, exercises and even products out there that can help us fight the pain barrier and soothe our back muscles.

One of the best products around to soothe painful lower back muscles is the doTERRA Deep Blue Stick, which is a convenient muscle soother used regularly by McIlroy.
The four-time major champion of course also relied heavily on a combination of stretches and gym work after his opening round to sort out his back pain at East Lake, but the doTERRA Deep Blue Stick certainly played a significant role in his healing process.
