For persistent injuries, working with a kinesiologist is a great way to incorporate movement and exercise into your rehabilitation plan. Through a functional movement screen and targeted exercises, they can tailor a rehab plan that helps you achieve your goals. We also work with ICBC patients recovering from motor vehicle collisions who can greatly benefit from kinesiology and active rehabilitation services.

Your body changes after birth and we are here to help you recover. Common postpartum concerns that can benefit from our exercise rehabilitation and kinesiology services include incontinence (bladder, bowel, or gas), pelvic organ prolapse (feelings of heaviness/ pressure or a bulge), painful intercourse, tailbone pain, diastasis recti, C-section rehabilitation, pelvic girdle pain, postpartum low back pain, upper back/ neck and chest pain from feeding and generalized strengthening and conditioning.

Diastasis recti is a common pregnancy-related change in the muscles and connective tissue of the abdominal wall, where the abdominal muscles are stretched leaving a gap in between. 100% of pregnant people will have some degree of stretching by the end of their pregnancy. Through movement, breathwork, core stabilization and core strengthening, our kinesiologists can help retrain your core postpartum.
