TPI Golf Testing in Scituate, MA
See What's Holding Your Swing Back
Most golf advice starts with the swing. A TPI screen starts with your body — because how you rotate, stabilize, and load directly shapes what your swing can and can't do. When the physical limitation is found and addressed, swing changes finally stick instead of unraveling on the next round.

What It Costs to Train a Swing Your Body Can't Actually Support
Swing Fixes That Never Stick
Drilling a swing change your body physically can't perform is a losing battle. Without knowing your mobility and stability limits, lessons fade fast and the same faults creep back in by the next round.
Distance That Keeps Slipping Away
Lost clubhead speed is often a movement problem, not an effort problem. Restricted rotation or poor sequencing quietly caps your power — and swinging harder won't get it back until the limitation is addressed.
Nagging Aches You Play Through
Low back, hip, or shoulder discomfort that shows up every round rarely fixes itself. Compensations built around an unaddressed limitation tend to get more stubborn the longer they go unscreened.
A Screen That Connects Your Body to Your Swing
Care is led by Dr. Dan McGovern, a board-certified sports physical therapist (SCS) with more than 38 years of experience working with golfers and athletes. The TPI screen is paired with objective movement assessment — so findings are specific, measurable, and tied directly to your game.




What a TPI Screen Helps Uncover
Whether you're chasing distance, fighting a recurring swing fault, or just tired of aching after a round, the TPI screen gives you a clear, objective starting point — and a plan built around what your body actually needs.
Limited hip rotation that restricts your backswing and follow-through
Restricted thoracic spine mobility limiting your shoulder turn
Poor pelvic control that leaks power through the swing
Limited shoulder mobility affecting the top of your backswing
Reduced ankle mobility that compromises your base and balance
Core stability deficits linked to early extension and inconsistency
Lost clubhead speed traced to a movement limitation, not effort
Recurring low back, hip, or shoulder discomfort after rounds

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about TPI golf testing at Next Level Performance Systems in Scituate, MA.
What exactly is a TPI golf screen?
A TPI screen is a series of physical tests — mobility, stability, posture, and balance — built around the demands of the golf swing. It shows how your body actually moves, then connects those findings to the swing faults and discomfort you feel on the course.
Do I need to be injured to get a TPI screen?
No. You don't need golf injuries or pain to benefit. Many golfers screen specifically to add distance, improve consistency, or protect their body for the seasons ahead. If your swing or your body isn't doing what you want, that's reason enough to come in.
Do I need a referral to come in?
Massachusetts allows direct access to physical therapy, so no referral is needed. Reach out, tell us what you're working on, and we'll schedule your screen directly. If you already work with a coach or physician, we're glad to coordinate as appropriate.
Is TPI testing covered by insurance?
No. Next Level Performance Systems is a cash-based practice and does not bill insurance. That means your screen and the plan that follows are built entirely around your golf goals — not session limits or an insurer's restrictions. Installment options are available.
What happens at the first visit?
Your first visit is the screen itself: a one-on-one movement assessment built around your swing. We walk you through what we find in plain language and map out a personalized plan — so you leave knowing exactly what's limiting you and how to fix it.
