Strength & Functional Training
Return to golf physical therapy
Golf requires rotation, balance and tolerance for repeated swings.
Dr. Valeria DaCosta, PT, DPT, provides one-on-one assessment and rehabilitation for children and adults. Your plan is based on your movement, medical precautions and the activities that matter to you.
In-home care in the approved service area. Virtual visits depend on clinical suitability. No fixed recovery timeline is promised.

Understanding your needs
Your evaluation considers comfortable movement, strength, tolerance for activity and the demands of your everyday environment. Relevant medical instructions help determine safe next steps.
An individualized plan
Depending on your evaluation, treatment may include rotation capacity and staged golf-specific loading. Progress is reviewed regularly and exercises are adjusted to your response.
Care connected to daily life
We choose practical goals together and work with the space and routines you use at home. Exercises, education and functional practice are selected for your current abilities, not a standard program for everyone.
