Kinesiology

Kinesiology is the study of human movement, making it a valuable resource if you’re experiencing movement issues.

Kinesiologists use safe, simple, accurate, and non-invasive muscle testing methods to determine imbalances in your body and guide you toward achieving optimum health.

Kinesiologists use exercise, active rehabilitation, and other therapeutic techniques to aid injury recovery and improve strength, flexibility, and overall physical well-being.

Active rehab, short for active rehabilitation, involves personalized exercise programs designed by kinesiologists to help individuals recover from injuries or improve physical conditions.

Kinesiology and physiotherapy both address human movement and rehabilitation, but they differ in their approaches. Kinesiology emphasizes exercise-based interventions to enhance movement and function, whereas physiotherapy takes a more comprehensive approach, incorporating modalities such as manual therapy, education, and exercise.

In a kinesiology appointment, the practitioner will likely conduct an initial assessment, which may involve discussing your medical history, lifestyle, and specific goals. They may perform physical tests to evaluate movement, strength, and flexibility. Based on the assessment, the kinesiologist will develop a personalized exercise plan tailored to your needs and guide you through the exercises.
