About Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is a core principle at FSJ Chiropractic Clinic.
Our kinesiologist, Christina, works alongside Dr. Clint and Dr. Elena to support the successful rehabilitation of their patients.
We will identify any weaknesses, imbalances, or instability that needs to be addressed to facilitate recovery.
Why See a Kinesiologist?
A kinesiologist’s role is to improve how your body moves, functions, and performs.
Kinesiologists specialize in exercise-based rehabilitation, injury recovery, strength development, mobility improvement, posture correction, soft tissue work, muscle mobilization, concussion assessment, and return-to-work or sport programming.
The focus is on restoring proper movement, reducing muscular restriction, supporting neurological recovery when needed, and helping you build strength to prevent future injury.
Our Approach
Rehabilitation at FSJ Chiropractic Clinic is active, practical, and built around real life.
Christina’s exercise prescription is clear, easy to follow, and designed to be done at home or in the gym of your choice. That means your rehab can fit into your routine, not take it over.
Care is also collaborative. When needed, your rehabilitation plan can work alongside chiropractic care so your treatment, movement work, and progress all support each other. Instead of a one-size-fits-all program, your care is tailored to your body, your goals, and how you respond over time.

No, kinesiology and physiotherapy are different professions.
While physiotherapy often emphasizes diagnosis and early-stage treatment, kinesiology focuses on movement retraining, exercise therapy, soft tissue techniques, muscle mobilization, concussion assessment and rehabilitation, strengthening, and long-term functional improvement.
In addition to injury rehabilitation, kinesiologists provide postural assessments, functional movement testing, mobility and flexibility programs, core and joint stabilization training, soft tissue release, muscle mobilization, concussion assessment and graduated return-to-activity planning, return-to-work conditioning, sport-specific training, and chronic pain support through structured, progressive exercise programs.
Yes, kinesiology is a safe and evidence-based approach to rehabilitation and performance care.
Kinesiology has been pursued since the late 1800’s, although progressed rapidly from the mid-20th century to what we understand as modern kinesiology today.
Treatments, exercise programs, and concussion management strategies are individualized and progressed gradually to ensure safe, effective recovery.
Exercises and soft tissue work should not feel sharp or injurious, though mild muscle fatigue or temporary soreness can be normal when beginning treatment.
Your kinesiologist will adjust techniques and exercises to keep you working within safe and appropriate limits.
Your first appointment typically includes a discussion of your history and goals, a movement and posture assessment, range of motion and strength testing, and, if applicable, concussion screening. Treatment may include guided exercise, soft tissue therapy, muscle mobilization, and structured rehabilitation planning. Follow-up visits focus on progressive strengthening, stability training, movement correction, and safe return to daily activities, work, or sport.
