About the Kinatex Golf Program
The objective of the Kinatex Sports Physio golf program is to optimize a golfer's physical capacities by working on various aspects such as the flexibility, the strength and the muscular control of several parts of the body including the legs, the hips, the pelvis and back, and the neck and shoulders. Our experts have been trained to educate all golf enthusiasts, regardless of age and level, on the importance of the body and how it relates to the golf swing.
We believe golfers will benefit the most from a healthy and efficient body!
All of our golf therapists are all certified by the Titleist Performance Institute. The Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) is an educational organization recognized worldwide for its research center dedicated to how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. This program is as much for amateur as for professional golfers.
The philosophy of the program designed by TPI is that there is not "one way to swing a club, rather an infinite number of swing styles. However, there is one efficient way for every player to swing and it is based on what the player can physically do." *
According to TPI, each golfer's swing is not the same however it can be efficient. This observation is true because the efficiency of a swing is unique to their body. To obtain an efficient swing, a golfer must first be evaluated. A screen is carried out by a Kinatex Sports Physio therapist certified by TPI and involves an assessment of the golfer's swing mechanics, their body's biomechanics, their physical fitness, the quality of their movements, their current health status and their golf playing history.
Once the evaluation is completed, the results are used to create a two unique plans for the golfer. The first plan includes exercises to improve the body's biomechanics and the second plan includes golf-specific drills to improve on the golfer's swing mechanics. Other recommendations such as complimentary fitness training, physical therapy treatments, swing coaching, nutrition, and mental strategy may be given as well.
A golfer will see the greatest improvement by surrounding themselves with a team of experts. Similarly, any professional in the golf industry will see their clients benefit most by themselves being part of a network or team of professionals.
