Kinesiology Treatment

Drawing knowledge from other scientific disciplines such as biomechanics, anatomy, physiology, neuroscience and psychology, Kinesiologists have a wide scope of practice and are experts in human movement.

Common areas of Kinesiology practice include, but are not limited to athletic/sport performance, injury rehabilitation/prevention, and occupational rehabilitation/fitness. Kinesiology treatment includes a full-body evaluation of current physical function to an activity-based program progression specific to body functionality and personal goals.

Along with exercise prescription, Kinesiologists utilize other modalities from soft tissue release to K-tape, and Graston and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) to aid in treatments.

Kinesiology Treats

Kinesiology alleviates a variety of body imbalances relating to joint and muscle pain, stress, nutrition and minor injuries. Back pain, tennis elbow, frozen shoulder or migraines can all be treated through kinesiology care. Kinesiology aims to restore balance in the body and when testing and addressing physical imbalances, the emotion behind the imbalance–like anxiety, depression or stress—can be addressed as well.

If you are working with other rehab professionals you may be seeing (ex. physician, physiotherapy, chiropractic, occupational therapy, RMT), please provide us with their contact information and we would be happy to work with them cooperatively toward your treatment plan.

Holistic Evaluation: The journey begins with a comprehensive assessment of your physical function, considering factors like posture, muscle strength, flexibility, and movement patterns.

Whether you’re aiming to improve athletic performance, recover from an injury, or simply enhance your overall fitness, our programs are customized to help you achieve optimal results.

Advanced Therapeutic Techniques

Our Kinesiology services incorporate a range of advanced techniques to support your recovery and performance:

  • Soft Tissue Release: Techniques such as massage and myofascial release help alleviate tension, improve circulation, and reduce pain in affected areas.
  • Kinesiology Taping (K-Tape): This technique provides support to muscles and joints, helping to reduce pain and swelling without limiting movement.
  • Graston Technique: A form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, Graston Technique is effective for breaking down scar tissue and enhancing mobility.
  • Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF): This advanced form of flexibility training involves both stretching and contraction of muscle groups to improve muscular strength and range of motion.

Addressing Physical and Emotional Well-Being

Kinesiology at Prime Performance goes beyond physical treatment. We recognize that physical imbalances can often be linked to emotional factors such as stress, anxiety, or depression. Our holistic approach seeks to address these underlying issues, helping you achieve both physical and emotional balance.

Treating a Range of Conditions

Kinesiology can effectively treat various conditions, including:

  • Chronic Pain Conditions: Such as back pain, which can result from poor posture, muscle imbalances, or stress.
  • Sports-Related Injuries: Conditions like tennis elbow or frozen shoulder, where our tailored programs can aid in recovery and prevent recurrence.
  • Headaches and Migraines: Often related to muscular tension and stress, which can be alleviated through targeted interventions.
