move better…live well
Our integrated approach to treatment is a result of our expertise in three different disciplines and over 25 years of experience in sports, manual therapy and rehabilitation
Our treatments combine Manual Osteopathic and Massage Therapy and Kinesiotherapy (Corrective Exercise)
Manual Osteopathy
It is a hands on treatment based on the philosophy that the body functions as a whole.
Lack of balance, misalignment or movement restrictions within body’s structure – joints, muscles, connective tissue (fascia), internal organs – could lead to injury or dysfunction. Osteopathic treatments focus on finding and addressing those structural abnormalities to relieve pain, facilitate healing and improve the function of the whole organism.
Massage Therapy
The term massage therapy describes different ways of using hands to manipulate and mobilize the muscles, soft tissue and joints of the body for therapeutic purposes. It is a broad discipline that encompasses many different approaches and techniques that vary among practitioners. At Kinesis we practice Rehabilitative Massage Therapy, an approach that focuses on addressing injuries, pain or other ailments. It requires additional training and employs more advanced manual therapy techniques.
Kinesiotherapy
Also called Movement or Corrective Exercise Therapy is part of Kinesiology, which is a regulated health care profession in Ontario.
Based on thorough knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics of the body, Kinesiologists are using education and exercises to target specific areas of the body to address muscular imbalance, movement restrictions or lack of stability. In rehabilitation, Kinesiotherapy could be used as a sole modality or alongside other treatments. It is also an effective way to improve general health and prevent injuries from happening again.
