What is Kinesiology?
Kinesiologists are movement specialists trained in exercise science, biomechanics, and rehabilitation. In British Columbia, they play a key role in active rehabilitation, guiding clients through personalized exercise programs to help them recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions, and enhance physical function.
Kinesiologists cannot diagnose medical conditions or perform manual therapy (like physiotherapists or chiropractors), but they excel in movement assessment, corrective exercise, and strength training.
How Kinesiology Complements Physiotherapy, Chiropractic & Athletic Therapy
Kinesiologists do not diagnose medical conditions (like physiotherapists or chiropractors), but they excel in movement assessment, corrective exercise, and strength training.
Kinesiologists work hand-in-hand with other rehab professionals, providing structured exercise programs to support treatment plans set by physiotherapists, chiropractors, and athletic therapists, as well as seeing their own patients and working autonomously.
This collaborative approach helps patients:
- Transition safely from rehab to full activity
- Refine movement patterns and prevent re-injury
- Gain confidence in strength, mobility, and overall function
Who Can Benefit from Kinesiology?
- Athletes looking to improve performance and movement efficiency
- Post-injury patients needing guided rehab exercises
- Individuals with chronic pain or mobility issues seeking safe, structured programs
- Anyone wanting to improve fitness, strength, and longevity under expert supervision
