Kinesiology sessions: What to expect

Many clients come to their first kinesiology session unsure of what they hope to get out of the experience. Your kinesiologist will spend some time getting to know your ailments and discuss your concerns before beginning.

During an assessment, you and your kinesiologist will discuss the accident or incident related to your visit. They will ask about previous ailments and perform range of motion, strength, and palpation tests. This will help your kinesiologist pinpoint where the body is stressed, and which areas to work on. As various tissues are interconnected, the rehabilitative work may not always be at the point of pain, depending on the situation.

Once your affliction has been identified, your kinesiologist will use their knowledge of the human body, specifically in exercise physiology, to develop specific exercises for you. These exercises will be built into a customized program to help re-balance the body. They often contain various elements designed to build up strength, stability, posture, balance, proprioception, etc. Additional techniques, such as soft tissue release, taping, and other modalities, are often incorporated to help with recovery, pain reduction, and healthy movement.

After a kinesiology session, many clients feel lighter or less weighed down. Some also feel energetic or find their concentration has improved. This is due to a realignment of the energetic body.
