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 are individualized to effectively address your symptoms but also respecting your general health or any limitations you may have.
  • We aim to create a corrective program that suits your lifestyle, allows your active participation and can be continued as a preventative measure.
  • We always make an effort to find and address all the factors that contribute to your current condition.
  • We expect some positive effects of the treatment after each visit and typically see the improvement within 4 – 6 sessions. The treatments are adjusted based on your response to maximize the outcome of each session.
  • If needed, we may contact your physician for further diagnostics or suggest a referral to another health care provider.
  • 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.
