Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Golf Evaluation and Treatment
The Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) is the world’s leading educational organization which is dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. TPI has studied thousands of golfers ranging from the top professional Tour players to weekend enthusiasts. TPI discovered how a properly functioning body allows a player to swing a golf club in the most efficient way possible. TPI has analyzed how physical limitations in a player’s body can adversely affect the golf swing and potentially lead to injury. The program is designed to provide the golfer with a comprehensive assessment of their movement patterns, determine their swing faults, and create a personalized treatment plan to address strength limitations, mobility limitations or areas needing improvement. This program is used by some of the best golfers in the world on a regular basis by their swing coaches, medical staff and trainers. This will not only improve your game but decrease risk of injury by eliminating imbalances in strength and mobility.
What is the TPI Golf Screen?
During the screen, we focus on three key areas:
- Medical History and Goals: We take the time to understand the golfer’s medical history, previous injuries, and current goals. This information helps us tailor the screen and treatment plan to address any specific concerns or needs allowing for the most accurate results for the client.
- Physical Assessment: During the TPI Screen we examine the golfer’s mobility, stability, strength, and power through a series of functional movement screens similar to the FMS (Functional Movement Screen). This assessment helps identify any physical limitations that may be affecting the golfer’s swing mechanics and overall performance. The Assessment takes no longer than 10 minutes and will be guided by your provider who will review your results once the assessment is completed.
- Swing Analysis: During the TPI Screen we closely analyze the golfer’s swing mechanics, posture, alignment, and sequencing. This allows us to pinpoint any areas that require improvement or correction and provide specific recommendations to improve and enhance performance.
What is the TPI Golf Treatment Program?
The TPI Golf Treatment combines various techniques and exercises to address physical limitations, improve movement patterns, and enhance overall golf performance based on the results of your personal TPI Golf Screen.
The treatment plan may include:
- Corrective Exercises: Golfer-specific exercises are prescribed to improve mobility, stability, strength, and power. These exercises target the specific limitations identified during the screen which will allow the client to focus on the most important findings for them during their training.
- Swing Mechanics Training: We provide golfers with specific drills and training techniques to optimize their swing mechanics based on the analysis conducted during screen. This not only will improve the way you move but also improve your ball striking ability by creating more consistency in the golf swing.
- Education and Injury Prevention: Our team provides educational resources, guidance on proper warm-up, mid-round and cool-down routines, as well as recommendations for injury prevention strategies. With our professional background in physical therapy and rehabilitative exercise our professionals at BeneFit PT can make recommendations and modifications to the treatment program based on medical history and limitation.
The treatment program is monitored via the TPI app which will allow clients to view their specific treatment program with videos and instruction. The provider is able to edit and progress a clients treatment program right through the app, this allows consistent progress to be monitored and tailored to you. Each appointment will have a re-assessment of the TPI screen, swing mechanics and modification to the treatment program if required.
