Kinesiologists provide unique and valuable services contributing to your health care and treatment.
They will work closely with you to:
- Prevent and treat illness or injury through appropriate exercise testing, assessment and prescription;
- Improve your physical performance in sport, work and activities of daily living;
- Oversee or assist with the implementation of your individual health care plan;

Kinesiologists work as part of interdisciplinary teams to ensure you receive integrated best-practices care for safe and effective treatment and independently in the community depending on your needs.
Many Kinesiologists are community based, providing quality service when and where it is needed and can help ‘bridge’ the gap between clinic/facility based treatment and the home or independent community environments. This role has been shown to enhance your ability to return to regular home, work and leisure activities sooner and more effectively.
Kinesiology Team
How Can We Help?
We provide functional assessment and treatment services for the rehabilitation of people suffering from physical injuries sustained at work, in automobile collisions, in sports and other life activities.
One of our primary services is active rehabilitation, which consists of the assessment of physical function followed by the implementation and progression of an individually structured and tailored exercise program to enhance and promote the safe and dependable return to an individual’s regular life activities.
We can also perform specialized services, such as biomechanical analysis of injury, conduct job demands analysis, and functional capacity evaluations in relation to an individual’s occupational requirements.
Your Initial Visit
- Your Kinesiologist will discuss your reasons for being there and review your medical history with you.
- Together you will work to determine what your goals are and what you would like to achieve from the treatment.
- The Kinesiologist will then perform a Functional Movement Assessment and evaluate your posture and biomechanics.(how you move).
- Based on the findings, an exercise program will be created tailored specifically to your individual functional ability and goals.
- At the end of your first section there will be an educational component detailing why each exercise is chosen, and how it helps you reach your goals.
Subsequent Visits
- During a subsequent visit, you will demonstrate and perform the exercises from your program with the Kinesiologist. This will allow the Kinesiologist to either adapt or modify exercises within the program so that you can maximize your progress.
- Suggested Treatment Period: Depending on the nature of your ailment or unique goals, treatment plans can vary in frequency and duration. Generally speaking, it is recommended to come 1-2 times per week for a 4-6 week period in order to develop the skills to carry on and progress your exercise program on your own.
Kinesiology services and active rehabilitation are ideal for a wide variety of individuals. This includes people recovering from workplace or motor-vehicle injuries, those rehabilitating after surgery, athletes or recreational sport participants who need injury rehabilitation or are seeking performance optimization, office workers with posture- or ergonomics-related strain, older adults wanting to maintain balance and mobility, and individuals coping with long-standing musculoskeletal issues such as arthritis or chronic joint pain. At your first session, a kinesiologist reviews your medical history, discusses your goals, and performs a functional movement assessment, evaluating your posture, biomechanics, flexibility, strength, and mobility. Based on that assessment, you receive a personalized therapy plan. In subsequent sessions, you perform prescribed exercises under supervision, with your kinesiologist adjusting the plan as you progress. Education is also provided, so you understand why each exercise is chosen and how it helps your recovery. Results vary depending on the severity of your condition, how consistently you attend sessions, and whether you follow your prescribed exercises outside the clinic. Many clients notice improvements with active rehab therapy within a few weeks. A typical course might involve 1–2 sessions per week over a 4–6 week period; after that, you’ll often have the tools and confidence to continue progressing independently. Wear comfortable, flexible clothing that allows a full range of motion, such as athletic wear or loose-fitting shorts and a T-shirt. The priority is freedom of movement, so your kinesiologist can accurately assess posture, flexibility, and functional movement, and you can perform therapeutic exercises comfortably and safely. Yes! Kinesiology is often used to manage chronic musculoskeletal pain, such as persistent back, joint, or arthritis-related discomfort. Through targeted functional movement training, therapeutic exercises, improved mobility, muscle strengthening, posture correction, and better biomechanics, kinesiology helps reduce pain, restore function, and prevent relapse. It’s a non-invasive, exercise-based approach that focuses on long-term wellness rather than just symptom relief.
