A member service enhancement for private clubs
Club Wellness & Physical Therapy Partnerships
PT-led wellness, mobility, injury prevention, and recovery support for golf clubs, country clubs, racquet clubs, and private member communities.
Elliott Concierge Physical Therapy partners with clubs and private member communities to help members stay active, recover confidently, and continue participating in the activities they value most. From golf and tennis to pickleball, fitness, travel, and daily life, our goal is to provide a professional wellness resource that complements the club experience without creating a major operational burden.
The opportunity
Help Members Stay Active in the Activities They Joined For
Members do not join a club because they want more appointments on their calendar. They join for golf, tennis, pickleball, fitness, social connection, family time, and quality of life.
When pain, surgery, balance issues, mobility loss, or injury concerns start limiting those activities, the member experience changes. Elliott Concierge Physical Therapy helps bridge that gap by giving members access to expert guidance focused on movement, recovery, strength, and return to activity.
This is not about adding a traditional clinic to the club. It is about offering a practical, professional resource that helps members keep doing what they came to the club to enjoy.

A simple beginning
Ways to Start Small
A club partnership does not need to begin as a large program. Start with a low-commitment pilot and see whether members find the service valuable.
Member Wellness Talk
A short educational session on golf mobility, racquet sport injury prevention, balance, strength, fall prevention, or returning to activity after orthopedic surgery.
Member Screening Day
Brief individual screens focused on pain, mobility, balance, injury prevention, or limitations affecting golf, tennis, pickleball, fitness, or daily activity.
Ask a PT Session
A casual member education format where members can ask general questions about pain, mobility, balance, recovery, and safe return to activity.
Mobility or Movement Class
A PT-led group session focused on mobility, strength, balance, warm-up routines, and movement strategies that support club life.
If members respond well, the club can decide whether to explore recurring programming or individual appointment options. If interest is limited, there is no need for the club to continue.
Designed for leadership
Low Lift for the Club
The goal is to make the partnership simple for club leadership and staff. ECPT can operate independently and handle the clinical and administrative side of care.
ECPT can handle
- Scheduling and intake
- Clinical documentation
- Payment and privacy requirements
- Professional liability
- Clinical care
- Member communication materials, if desired by the club
The club may only need to provide
- An approved space
- A time window
- Optional inclusion in club emails, flyers, newsletters, or programming announcements
- A point person for basic coordination
