Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) golf Physiotherapy

Unlock your best swing with a body built for golf

‍Golf is a game of precision, timing, and efficiency. At our Lewisham Avenue clinic, we offer specialised TPI-informed physiotherapy to help golfers move well, play with confidence, and reduce the risk of injury. Whether you are a weekend player or preparing for competition, we tailor your assessment and treatment to your goals, your body, and your swing.

What is TPI?

The Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) is the world leader in understanding how the body influences the golf swing. For over twenty years, TPI has collected the world’s largest database of 3D swing mechanics, power profiles, strength measures, pressure mapping, and movement quality from both elite and everyday golfers.

Through this research, TPI established the Body-Swing Connection. This model shows how physical limitations influence swing patterns, shot performance, and injury risk. A well functioning body allows a golfer to swing efficiently, consistently, and with less strain. Limitations in mobility, strength, or control can create compensations that lead to pain or reduced performance.

Our TPI approach helps identify these limitations and build a plan to improve them.

What is golf Physiotherapy?

Golf physiotherapy focuses on understanding how your body moves during your swing and how your physical capacity influences injury risk and performance.

What Is a TPI golf assessment?

If you don’t assess, it’s just a guess

A TPI assessment gives you a clear picture of how your body contributes to your swing. It includes:

• Review of swing mechanics and biomechanics
  
• Golf specific physical screening
  
• Assessment of fitness, movement quality, and strength
  
• Discussion of health history and past injuries
  

The TPI movement screen is a simple test used worldwide to identify physical limitations linked to common swing characteristics. Once your screen is completed, your data guides a personalised plan that may include physiotherapy, strength and conditioning, swing technique coaching, or a combination of all.

Your assessment becomes the foundation for improving efficiency, reducing injury risk, and enhancing overall performance.
