Kinesiology is the science of human movement. It focuses on how the body
functions and moves. Kinesiologists work with individuals to assist in
regaining their optimal physical function. By teaching proper body
mechanics for daily activities and exercise, they reduce the risk of
injury or re-injury and improve effectiveness of treatment.
At Physiotherapy at Don Mills,
our certified kinesiologists work as an integral part of
the rehabilitation team. They work
independently or with other practitioners to improve an individual’s
movement and design goal oriented exercise programs and teach safe
therapeutic exercises.
In addition to developing therapeutic exercise
programs, our kinesiologists are qualified to offer the following
services:
-
