About kinesiology
Kinesiology is the science of human movement and exercise. From cells to society, Kinesiology uncovers the biomechanical, physiological, neurological, and psychosocial mechanisms that drive human function and performance.
The practice of kinesiology is the assessment of human movement and performance and its rehabilitation and management to maintain, rehabilitate or enhance movement and performance.
Kinesiologists are healthcare professionals who use evidence-based research to treat and prevent injury and disease, and to improve movement and performance.
