About
A long and healthy life is no accident
It begins with good genes but it also extends and depends on good habits.. We can help improve your quality of life, prevent injuries and help your sporting performance by providing you with an individualised exercise health plan that addresses your specific needs. This is based on the outcome of a thorough one on one assessment.
The body is complex and no matter how active or inactive your lifestyle is, we all share the same struggles against the habits of our daily lives. Our bodies are not perfect but we can try to get as close to it as we can. As you go through life your body takes strain from everyday life which can lead to pain and injuries.
Pulling inspiration from the strengths of Biokinetics we try our very best to help you become the best version of yourself.
ALIGNMENT
Looking at the relationship your body has with gravity. Proper alignment of the body puts less stress on the spine and helps you have good posture.
ANATOMY
Assessing the way your joints move and measure the level of control you have over them.
ACTION
You may not have proper control over certain areas of your body. Developing a plan to maintain the changes we incorporate is of high importance. We want you to live with comfortable and unstrained movement.
My Focus
Living without pain requires attention to detail. Life can take you anywhere but you need a healthy vessel to help you through the constant demands of life. My focus is on improving your body, so you can focus on living your best life. Strength is key and that’s what I want for you.
Objective equipment used
The Pressure air biofeedback uses air to measure muscle strength. It has been proven to be a great rehabilitation tool right after orthopaedic injuries and surgery as well as after a stroke and other chronic diseases.
The Neurotrac stimulator is a neuromuscular stimulation device to help retrain your muscles. The use of mild electrical stimulation can greatly improve the effectiveness of your exercises, particularly if you need help to contract the muscles yourself. Electrical pulses are able to activate the muscles and produce a contraction providing a targeted, efficient workout that builds strength quickly.
The HUMAC Balance System uses a balance board and balance training software to deliver a powerful computerized balance system for sports training, fall prevention and physical therapy. The platform offers a wide range of training and measurement routines, including weight bearing, random motion, centre of pressure, limits of stability and roadway. These can be used to train patients recovering from trauma or surgery, as well as those with orthopedic, neurological and vestibular disorders. The training system is also an effective tool for training seniors and other people who are at risk of falls.
