What is a Kinesiologist?
Kinesiologists are movement and exercise specialists that focus on injury based reconditioning. They are a critical part of the rehabilitation team at COAST and a great compliment to many treatments that we offer, such as Physiotherapy, Chiropractic and Massage. Kinesiologists will help you rehabilitate from injury or surgery and build a stronger, more resilient body.
A Kinesiologist is a healthcare professional that focuses on preventative health through movement and exercises. Kinesiologists work one on one with clients and can address a multitude of needs. They can help clients achieve fitness goals, work closely with athletes and play an important role as part of a rehabilitation team.
