FAQ
During your initial evaluation we will discuss your medical history, concerns you have and goals for treatment.
We will assess how your body moves during typical daily movements such as walking, sitting, standing, squatting, etc., as well as any joint or muscle restrictions that may be contributing to your symptoms.

“I was having a lot of pain and trouble with walking & doing everyday tasks while pregnant. Kinetic Edge has helped so much. My abdomen has strengthened, and my movement has improved through this pregnancy. It’s helped me from being too tight – which makes my movement more painful & restricted.
