KINESIOLOGY

Exercise Therapy to Assist Stretching

At Phoenix Physiotherapy Clinic, we have 2 kinesiologist diploma graduates that offer supervised/assisted stretches and guided exercises.

At Phoenix Physiotherapy Clinic in Prince George, we now have two full-time kinesiologists that offer top-notch exercise therapy.

Functional Assessments & Return to Work Programs

Functional assessments are a joint effort between the kinesiologist and physical therapist to measure a worker’s current physical abilities (post-injury) and compare them to their previous (pre-injury) job demands and daily tasks. Functional assessments are performed when the injury is not part of an approved WorkSafeBC claim, but still prevents you from working.

Our kinesiologist also works one-on-one, private insurance companies, employers and health care providers as part of a graduated return to work. To learn more or to book a functional assessment today, give our office a call!

How Can a Kinesiologist Help You?

A kinesiologist can make a unique and valuable contribution to your treatment by providing a bridge between clinic-based assessment and treatment to work and community reintegration. 

Our kinesiologists diploma graduates work cooperatively with other health care specialists.

Patients can book sessions to work 1 on 1

  • with biofeedback to make sure they are stabilizing correctly and to help find the correct cues during movement. 
  • to supervise the home exercise program assigned by the physiotherapist and correct posture/movement when necessary
  • to book assistive stretching sessions to help patients maintain improvements in range of motion between physio sessions.
