Kinesiology
What a Kinesiologist does:
Kinesiologists are specialists in human movement, biomechanics, and physical function. They assess how the body moves and responds to injury, illness, or physical demands, then develop targeted therapy programs to support recovery, prevent further injury, and improve overall strength and mobility. Our kinesiology services in Coquitlam support clients recovering from injuries, managing chronic conditions, or working toward improved physical performance.
What to expect from our Coquitlam Kinesiologists:
Your first appointment begins with a detailed discussion of your health history, current challenges, and therapy goals. Your Kinesiologist will complete a thorough assessment that may include range of motion, strength, balance, posture, and functional movement.
Based on these findings, your therapist will design a personalized program focused on your priorities. For complex or multiple conditions, therapy is carefully paced and structured, with clear milestones to support steady and sustainable progress.
Occupational Therapy
What an Occupational Therapist does:
Occupational Therapists (OTs) help individuals participate more fully in everyday activities such as self-care, work, school, and leisure. When injury, illness, concussion, or disability interferes with daily functioning, an Occupational Therapist develops practical strategies to improve independence, safety, and confidence. Our occupational therapy services in Coquitlam are delivered in real-world environments to ensure meaningful, lasting outcomes.
What to Expect From Our Coquitlam Occupational Therapy Professionals
Occupational Therapy often takes place in your home, workplace, or community setting. This allows your therapist to assess environmental factors and tailor strategies that directly support your daily routines.
Your Coquitlam occupational therapy sessions may involve task modification, adaptive equipment recommendations, cognitive or sensory strategies, or education to help you perform activities more safely and effectively.
