Kinesiology is the scientific study of human movement, and it is used in physical therapy to improve functional mobility, prevent injury, and enhance athletic performance. Kinesiologists apply their knowledge of biomechanics, anatomy, and physiology to design personalized exercise programs that promote rehabilitation and recovery. By evaluating how muscles, joints, and bones work together, kinesiology aims to restore and optimize movement patterns.
Kinesiology is used to treat a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal injuries, neurological disorders, and chronic pain. Techniques may include exercise therapy, posture correction, and ergonomics training.
Kinesiology helps individuals improve their movement efficiency, prevent future injuries, and achieve optimal performance, making it an essential component of physical rehabilitation.
