Core Personal Fitness
Kinesiology
Our Kinesiologists can help with not only rehabilitation, but so much more
A Kinesiologist is a movement specialist who uses evidence based research to help improve health, performance and overall well being. Kinesiologists have a deep understanding of anatomy, biomechanics and physical conditioning. Our Kinesiologists work with clients of all abilities to create customized programs tailored to their specific needs. Whether you are recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition or working towards a specific fitness goal, our Kinesiologists will provide you with evidence based support to help you move safely and effectively.
We also offer tandem kinesiology sessions, if you have a partner or friend who you would like to come to our studio with, this can be accommodated even if you both have different goals and abilities.
ICBC KINESIOLOGY
If you have been involved in a motor vehicle accident, we can help. Our Kinesiologists and Athletic Therapists will take you through an appropriate treatment plan focused on rehabilitation and improving your strength, mobility and posture.
Once you have your claim number, you will start with an initial assessment and then we book you in for your follow-up treatments. We bill ICBC directly for all the sessions. Our goal is to get you back to your regular day-to-day activities feeling confident and pain-free.
What Do Our Kinesiologists Do?
Functional Movement Assessment
Our Kinesiologists will use movement analysis to identify any muscle imbalances, weaknesses or restrictions that may be contributing to pain, injury or decreased performance. They will educate and prescribe appropriate exercises to address specific concerns and help support you through efficient, pain free movement.
Exercise Prescription and Rehabilitation
Our Kinesiologists develop personalized programs to help individuals recover from injury, manage chronic conditions or improve strength and mobility. They will educate and guide you through each exercise to ensure you are moving safely and effectively. Our Kinesologists can also create a take home program tailored specifically to you and can be adapted to any equipment you may have access to.
Improve Your Overall Health
Beyond rehabilitation, our Kinesiologists play a proactive role in preventing injuries and improving quality of life. They work with individuals and groups to promote healthy movement habits, reduce risk factors and enhance physical performance. Whether you are an athlete, office worker or older adult, our Kinesiologists can help support a more active and independent lifestyle.
What Our Clients Say
“I used to say that I was allergic to exercise. I hated going to the gym, and when I did engage in physical activity I didn’t enjoy it at all. I didn’t know how to go about doing the exercises properly, and I didn’t have the physical ability to do even simple activities like a lunge or jumping up and down.
I started working with Lindsay twice a week, and she has literally changed my life! Over the last three and a half years I have become confident, strong, and, more importantly, I have learned to love my time in the gym! I went from not being able to do two pushups from my knees to regularly deadlifting the weight of a fully-grown person, from not being able to jump at all to running an 8k race. I couldn’t have done it without Lindsay and the rest of the team at Core.
The entire team at Core is knowledgeable and fun, but most of all they are kind. Having a personalized program means that I can focus on my own goals, with someone who shows no judgement, who can solve problems as they arise, and who can look at me and confidently say “I know you can do this!” Training with someone who has so much theoretical knowledge and practical background means that I have avoided injury while simultaneously pushing myself further and further, and have actually ENJOYED myself at the same time! The best parts of my workouts are when I say “I didn’t know I could do that!” Thank you so much, Lindsay, and the entire team!”
“I’ve been working out with the trainers at Core for nine years. All of them are knowledgeable, courteous, experienced, and most importantly, fun to be around! I’m stronger and have more energy and have valued the 1:1 attention and focus.”
“My partner and I have been really enjoying tandem and individual sessions at Core. The kinesiologists are extremely knowledgeable and do a fantastic job of adapting the exercises for my body’s needs. We have both seen far more improvement in ourselves than we had anticipated.”
“Before Core Personal Fitness, I never thought I’d be someone who regularly attended a gym.
The Athletic Therapy treatments that first brought me in were excellent for strength training and injury prevention. After being in an MVI, the Kinesiology support has been crucial in my recovery — helping me rebuild strength, mobility, and confidence.
The brand new equipment is really nice, and the monthly fitness challenges are a fun way to stay motivated and push yourself a little.
Riley is an outstanding Athletic Therapist and Kinesiologist. She’s knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely cares about your progress. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
