Injury Prevention Programs

Injuries can have a big impact on your health and wellbeing. They can stop you from doing the things that bring meaning, purpose, and joy to your life. Injuries may affect motivation, concentration, mood, and confidence, and some conditions can make the road to recovery challenging.

The biggest risk factor for sustaining an injury is having had that injury before. That’s right—if you’ve already twisted an ankle, you’re more likely to twist it again! Find out why repeat injuries happen here.

With this knowledge, we can assess your mobility, strength, control, function, and load to create a tailored program specific to your injury and sport or activity. These programs are delivered via an easy-to-use mobile app, so you’ll always have your exercises and instructions at hand.

At Kinima Physio, we’re passionate about identifying injury risk factors and helping prevent future or recurrent injuries. Research shows that injury prevention programs not only reduce the risk of injury but also improve performance—you can run faster, jump higher, and lift heavier!
