What is Kinesiology?
The word comes from the Greek word “kinesis” which means “to move.” So, kinesiology, in its simplest definition, is the study of human movement.
What Does a Kinesiologist Do? (according to the Canadian Kinesiology Alliance - C.K.A.)
- University-educated health professionals
- Kinesiologists apply movement science and exercise to encourage health and wellbeing; prevent, manage and rehabilitate injuries; treat illness and chronic disease; and restore function to optimize human performance in all settings.
- Kinesiologists are human movement specialists that use research and science to offer movement as medicine to any person who want a hands-on, personalized approach. They use interventions that include physical activity,
- Kinesiologists work with people of all ages, and physical abilities to improve a person’s quality of life
Our kinesiologists are members in good standing of both national and provincial (NS, NB, PEI) kinesiology associations.
Services
Our kinesiologists are certified PoNS™ trainers and provide treatment for our PoNS™ clients.
They are experienced in exercise programming for healthy, injured and chronic populations.
They can help you on your health journey by:
- providing exercise prescription and education
- incorporating more movement into your life
- helping you adopt a more active lifestyle, reduce risk factors for chronic disease, manage chronic disease, and/or regain function due to that old, nagging injury or assist in your rehabilitation plan after injury, illness or surgery.
We can provide something as simple as a walking plan to increase tolerance and endurance, accountability to get your movement in; or introduce you to exercise and how to make it a safe and healthy part of your life. We can also help with pain management and functional movement patterns.
Book online to schedule a free initial consultation with one of our kinesiologists where we can discuss your needs and goals and, together, come up with a plan that meets both. From there, you can schedule a thorough assessment to determine the best starting point for this new aspect of your health journey. We look forward to working with you.
