   Yes, tennis is very tough on your back and can lead to serious back pain. I had a chiropractor ask me the same question when I had a back ache and he told me that the force of swinging your racket puts alot of pressure on your back and can throw it out of place. He suggested that I switch from a one handed to two handed backhand and with more balance in my swing and two hands on he racket, the strain on my back was reduced. Swinging a racket hard with one arm can throw your back out of kilter so I’m not surprised that your chiropractor was concerned about this.
