New: Exercise Therapy

Capilano Rehab Centre is excited to offer the Edmonton and area an expanded therapeutic exercise program.  This program will be supervised by a Capilano Kinesiologist who is a human movement professional in the area of exercise therapy.

What Can Kinesiology Do For You?

Capilano Kinesiologists work alongside physiotherapists and other health professionals to develop a customized recovery program for your specific injury or condition. An evaluation will be performed and an appropriate strength, flexibility, and functional strength routine will be developed especially for you.

What Is Typically in an Exercise Therapy Program?

Our therapeutic programs typically involve an exercise component that is performed in our fully equipped gym and also includes a home exercise program to be done at your residence or a facility of your choosing. Capilano’s programs are developed and performed in a one on one setting and individualized to your specific needs. 

In addition to one on one care, Capilano patients have access to the BIODEX Multi-joint Isokinetic exercise system.  This system is especially helpful as a component of post-surgical recovery for knees and shoulders.

What are Some Other Features of Capilano’s Exercise Therapy?

Here are some of the other features of Capilano’s therapeutic exercise program:

• Rehabilitative and Functional Exercise Re-Training
• Fitness Conditioning for Muscle Development
• Flexibility and Stretching Programs
• Core and Low Back Strengthening Programs

How Do I Book An Appointment For Exercise Therapy?

If you are an existing patient, simply ask your attending Physical Therapist.  If you have not attended Capilano but have been directed by your primary health provider to see an exercise therapist, simply call Capilano at 780-466-1104 and our staff will be happy to arrange an appointment for you to see our Kinesiologist.
