ICBC ACTIVE REHAB

Restore function and get back to life

After being injured in a crash, it is more than just your body that is impacted. Many people experience a loss or change in function and, as a result, a decline in mental health. This can lead to a loss in function which impacts work, recreation and activities of daily life. With the help of a kinesiologist, you can work together to improve your function and mental health through regular, customized physical activity to get you back to excelling at and enjoying life again. ICBC now automatically approves 12 sessions in the first 12 weeks following a crash. After 12 weeks kinesiology sessions can continue with medical approval

What is Kinesiology?

Kinesiology is the study of human movement, therefore a kinesiogist is an expert in all things related to human movement including exercise, injury recovery and prevention, nutrition, and mental wellness. Using their knowledge, kinesiologists assess a person's overall health in addition to their physical condition in order to make a customized plan for each client. While there are often goals identified around treatment of injury, pain or imbalance, kinesiologists are also personal trainers and work with people who are looking for results such as weight loss, balancing nutrition, improving flexibility, fitness and strength and going over strategies to improve stress management or mental health challenges.

We treat more than just your injured area

While other treatments tend to focus more on the injured body part, kinesiologists address the whole body function. Assessing and correcting posture and core stability are key in recovery and long-term injury prevention as well

Performance & Rehab

Looking to perform better at work, sport or life? We offer performance-focussed training that will address your individual needs through a structured exercise program.

Experiencing pain or simply deconditioned following recovery from an injury or illness? Returning to sport or work following injury and then playing or working injured can be exhausting and dangerous. We will assess your function with your sport/occupation or personal goal in mind and tailor your program to get you back to or allow you to continue participating safely and with confidence

Targeted exercise is a key component of proper healing and reduces recovery time. It also assists in building the strength and flexibility required for optimum functioning

Waiting to take action until the pain goes away can delay your recovery as inactivity often leads to dysfunction and more pain as a result
