How can a Kinesiologist help you?

11/1/2021

 
Kinesiology is the scientific study of human movement, performance and function, and incorporates the sciences of biomechanics, anatomy, physiology, psychology and neuroscience.

​Kinesiologists work with people of all ages and physical abilities to:

  • Treat and prevent injury and disease.
  • Improve movement and performance. 
​
​A Kinesiologist is a regulated health professional. Other regulated health professionals you may be familiar with: Nurses (RN), Chiropractors (DC), Physiotherapists (PT) and Massage Therapists (RMT).

​A Registered Kinesiologist (R.Kin) is a human movement professional. They are required to provide evidence based exercise and movement prescription for rehabilitation or performance.


​They are the most qualified fitness professional because they are mandated to report and uphold the highest standards of care.

​A Kinesiologist 
can only use the title of R. Kin if they have:
  • University degree in Kinesiology,
  • Passed an entry-to-practice regulatory exam. 
  • Maintain their standing with the College of Kinesiologists of Ontario.
