Active Rehab & Kinesiology

Active rehabilitation is a kinesiology-directed exercise-based approach to injury recovery and prevention. A kinesiologist can help individuals with injury, disability, or medical condition(s) reach their health and fitness goals in a safe and progressive manner.

Our kinesiologists can help you recover from overuse or acute injury through mobility exercises and active rehabilitation. They also help you manage, rehabilitate, and prevent mobility issues that impede how your body moves and functions after injuries and car accidents.

Active rehabilitation is an exercise-based approach to treatment and rehabilitation.

A typical session with a kinesiologist will include injury-specific exercises, core, postural stabilization, general strengthening, and education regarding the principles of active rehabilitation, posture, and proper body mechanics. Ultimately, active rehabilitation aims to provide you with increased resolution of symptoms and independence in recovery through a structured exercise regimen.

Jennifer is a graduate of The University of Western Ontario where she completed an Honours Specialization in Clinical Kinesiology with distinction. Her specialization focused on understanding how kinesiology can be applied to different populations including athletes, older adults, and individuals with chronic diseases such as COPD, arthritis, heart disease and diabetes. Additionally, she possesses knowledge in the areas of biomechanics, exercise physiology, and nutrition.

While at Western University, she interned at Thames Valley Family Health Team, one of the largest family health teams in Ontario. She played a key role in creating and delivering exercise education programs tailored to various chronic disease populations including individuals with heart disease, arthritis, and diabetes.

Jennifer believes that exercise is medicine and that any step towards more movement, is a step towards improvement. Her main goal is to understand the specific needs of each patient and use evidence-based practices to create unique and suitable exercise plans.
