KINESIOLOGY

The scientific study of human movement, kinesiology incorporates the study of physiology, biomechanics, orthopedics, strength conditioning and psychology. Applications of kinesiology include  injury rehabilitation, workplace health and safety, wellness programs, as well as the sport and exercise industries.

Adaptation through exercise is a key principle of kinesiology that relates to improved fitness in athletes as well as health and wellness in clinical populations. Exercise is a simple and established intervention for many movement disorders and musculoskeletal conditions due to the neuroplasticity of the brain and the adaptability of the musculoskeletal system.
