Our TPI-certified approach is based on the principles of the Titleist Performance Institute — the gold standard in golf-specific movement assessment.
TPI (Titleist Performance Institute) physical therapy is designed to evaluate how strength, mobility, balance, and movement mechanics affect your golf swing.
Identifies physical limitations contributing to pain or swing faults
Evaluates how mobility and stability impact swing mechanics
Uses targeted exercises to improve mobility, stability, and power
Reduces injury risk
Improves swing efficiency and consistency
Helps golfers move better, feel better, and play better
This service is ideal for golfers seeking both injury prevention and performance optimization.
TMJ dysfunction can result from jaw clenching or grinding, poor posture, stress, neck tension, trauma, or movement imbalances. Our approach addresses both the jaw joint itself and contributing factors such as neck mobility and posture to create long-term relief.
Yes. Vestibular rehabilitation is evidence-based and highly effective for many causes of dizziness and imbalance. Through specific exercises like gaze stabilization and habituation training, we help retrain the brain to properly process balance and visual signals.
No. TPI-based therapy is ideal for both injured and non-injured golfers. Many golfers use it proactively to identify mobility or stability limitations that may lead to swing inefficiencies or future injuries. It’s designed to improve performance while reducing risk.
Most specialization services are billed as physical therapy when medically necessary and may be eligible for insurance coverage. Performance-based services, such as golf optimization programming, may fall under our cash-pay wellness offerings. Our team can help clarify coverage and options during scheduling.
We’re here for our community — offering expert, compassionate care across the Treasure Valley and beyond.
