Physical Therapist – Movement & Biomechanics Specialist

SSWING is looking for a highly entrepreneurial-minded individual with a core excellence and understanding of the relationship skeletal positioning has on muscular performance and explosive efficiency. Postural Restoration Institute (PRI) certification, or a strong interest in pursuing it, is highly sought after.

About SSWING

At SSWING, we have created a unique and powerful movement platform delivering to our customers, both online and in person, the concrete ability to “Master Your Movement” and, specific to our golfers, empower them to “Own Your SSWING.” We initiate this process at the beginning of the equation: physiology, how one moves.

We educate, explain, and ultimately improve movement — looking at the science, biomechanics, and math, combined with expert coaching and cutting-edge technology.

Our programs educate and deliver solutions from pelvic tilt to rib flare and focus intently on improving hip mobility. Our solutions have a foundation in Postural Restoration, focusing on biomechanics, injury prevention, and movement optimization to help golfers and all customers alike unlock their full potential.

Employment Type & Schedule

This role requires a minimum of 3 days per week on-site, including evening availability until 8:00 PM, with weekend availability as needed to accommodate client scheduling. Reliable, consistent weekly availability is essential to this role — candidates should be able to commit to this schedule without conflicting obligations.

Compensation

This role is compensated on a revenue-share basis, tied to sessions delivered and packages sold. There is a real earning ceiling for a provider who builds a strong caseload; compensation structure and earning examples are discussed in detail during the interview process. This is a cash-based practice — no insurance billing.

Key Responsibilities

• Movement Assessments

Conduct comprehensive, data-driven movement evaluations to identify mobility limitations, stability imbalances, postural patterns, and biomechanical inefficiencies. Utilize assessment findings to connect movement quality to human performance, injury prevention, and golf-specific power, speed, and consistency.

• Individualized Performance Plans (1:1 Sessions)

Design and implement customized improvement roadmaps tailored to each individual’s functional needs, goals, and performance timeline. Establish a foundation of neutral, balanced posture and efficient movement patterns, then progress intentionally into advanced programming to build measurable gains in speed, strength, mobility, and stability.

• Group Training Leadership

Deliver high-energy, expertly coached group training sessions that focus on skill-specific movement development, including hip mobility, trunk rotation control, core activation, sequencing, and total-body functional strength. Provide scalable progressions to ensure success across varying ability levels.

• Collaboration: Work closely with PGA Professional to integrate movement strategies with golf-specific mechanics goals.
• Education: Educate clients on injury prevention, proper body mechanics, and strategies for improving overall physical health.
• Technology Integration: Utilize advanced tools and software to track client progress and provide data-driven insights.
• Facility Growth: Assist in developing programs that enhance the value of SSWING’s physical therapy offerings, such as corporate wellness workshops or digital courses.

Performance Expectations

As a cash-based, revenue-share role, success is measured directly. A thriving provider in this role will:

• Build and maintain a caseload of active 1:1 clients within the first 90–180 days
• Deliver a steady-state weekly volume of sessions consistent with a full, sustainable caseload
• Convert movement assessments into ongoing client packages at a strong rate
• Contribute to group programming and support at least one corporate wellness or digital-course initiative per quarter

Specific targets and benchmarks are discussed and set collaboratively during onboarding and the 90-day check-in.
