Monroe County Golf Courses Are Opening—Here’s Why TPI-Certified Chiropractic Care Can Improve Your Game

Golf season is here! Discover how TPI-certified chiropractic care at Rochester Sports Chiropractic in Mendon, NY can help you swing pain-free and play at your best.

Golf season is officially back in Monroe County, and local golfers are already heading to their favorite courses like Mendon Golf Club, Ravenwood, Parkview Fairways, and Old Hickory. If you've been checking tee times and course conditions, you're not alone—early spring is one of the most exciting times of the year for golfers across Mendon, Pittsford, Victor, and Honeoye Falls.

But here’s the question we always ask our patients this time of year:
Is your body ready for golf season?

Golf: Low-Impact? Not Quite.

While golf may not look as intense as football or CrossFit, it places significant strain on your body. Every round involves:

  • Powerful, repeated rotations

  • Uneven walking terrain

  • Dozens of full-body swings

  • Extended time in dynamic postures

For those who haven’t been active all winter, this sudden physical demand can lead to tightness, pain, or even injury—especially in the back, shoulders, hips, and wrists.

At Rochester Sports Chiropractic, we help golfers not only recover from pain but also enhance performance and prevent injuries before they happen.

What Is TPI—and Why Does It Matter to Your Swing?

Our office is Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Certified, meaning we specialize in how your body functions in relation to your golf swing.

TPI is the world’s leading research and training organization dedicated to the study of the human body’s connection to golf performance. Their core belief:
There’s no one perfect swing—only the most efficient swing for your body.

As a TPI-certified provider, we use specific golf movement screenings to evaluate:

  • Mobility in key joints (like hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders)

  • Core strength and rotational stability

  • Flexibility and balance

  • Swing posture and mechanics

This data allows us to create a personalized plan to:

✅ Fix movement limitations
✅ Improve swing mechanics
✅ Enhance power and distance
✅ Reduce pain and fatigue
✅ Lower your injury risk

Trusted by the Pros—Available Right Here in Mendon

Over 25 of the top 30 golfers in the world have worked with TPI professionals, including:

  • Tiger Woods

  • Jordan Spieth

  • Justin Thomas

  • Brooks Koepka

  • Lexi Thompson

These athletes credit their consistent performance, injury prevention, and longer careers to the TPI-based approach. The good news? You don’t have to be a tour pro to get the same treatment.

Whether you're a competitive golfer or weekend player, TPI-certified chiropractic care can help you play longer, stronger, and pain-free.

Common Golf Injuries We Treat

Every spring, we help golfers with:

  • Low back pain from poor swing mechanics

  • Golfer’s elbow (inner elbow pain from overuse)

  • Shoulder tightness or rotator cuff strain

  • Hip issues from walking and rotation

Our approach blends gentle spinal adjustments, myofascial therapy, mobility drills, and TPI-guided rehab exercises to get you back on course quickly—and keep you there.

Three Simple Tips for a Safer, Stronger Golf Season

  1. Warm up before every round – Even 5 minutes of stretching helps

  2. Stay hydrated – Tight muscles fatigue faster

  3. Address soreness early – Don’t let minor issues turn into chronic pain
