Biokinetics

 

Biokinetics is defined as the science of movement and the application of exercise in rehabilitative treatment or performance.

Carlien Vermeulen Biokineticists are specialists in preventative medicine, rehabilitation, training and health promotion through individually tailored exercise programmes. 

A biokineticist’s role begins within 2 to 6 weeks after an injury or surgery. Our treatment continues through the different phases of recovery, and ends at the fully functional, sport-specific and performance orientated phase. The practice is recognised by and registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa. 

Patient reported outcome measures, as well as performance based outcomes are number one priority during evaluations at our practise. We believe if you can measure it, you can manage it.

We combine in-depth knowledge and experience with rehabilitative tools such as Electrical Muscle Stimulation, Hydrotherapy and Aquaplank training, as well as Cybex testing and training.

Our services include: orthopaedic rehabilitation, high performance training, sport-specific rehabilitation, aqua therapy and muscle testing and stimulation.
