You may have completed physio but still feel weak, guarded or unsure how to resume work, sport or regular exercise.
Walking, stairs, getting up from a chair or moving through the community may require more effort or confidence.
Fatigue, recurring flare-ups or loss of conditioning may make job, household and recreation demands harder to sustain.
Physiotherapy and kinesiology can both support recovery, but they are not the same service.
Fleming Fitness provides kinesiology, not physiotherapy. A Registered Kinesiologist assesses human movement and performance, then uses progressive exercise to maintain, rehabilitate or improve function. This can be especially helpful when you are ready to rebuild strength and capacity after clinical treatment, or when you need structured exercise around an ongoing limitation.
Tell us what you want to do more comfortably, what has stopped you before and whether you prefer clinic, home or virtual appointments.
Your first visit includes a review of your medical history and a movement assessment. Ongoing appointments place more emphasis on coached exercise, progress and adapting the plan to how you respond.
Discuss symptoms, recent changes, activity and the goal or task that should guide the session.
Review relevant movement when needed, then complete individually selected exercise with form and pacing support.
Finish with practical guidance for between visits and a clear explanation of what will progress, stay or change.
Straight answers about physio, kinesiology, personal training, home visits, injuries, referrals and coverage.
No. Fleming Fitness provides kinesiology and personal training, not physiotherapy. Kinesiologists and physiotherapists are distinct regulated health professionals in Ontario. Kinesiology may be useful when you need movement assessment and progressive exercise, including after completing physio or alongside another provider's recommendations.
Yes, in-home kinesiology and personal training may be available throughout Ottawa and surrounding communities. Availability, travel time and any travel fee depend on your address and appointment schedule.
Fleming Fitness can discuss exercise-based car accident and MVA rehabilitation that works from relevant professional recommendations and focuses on functional goals such as driving, mobility, work and daily activity. Service fit, documentation and payer requirements should be confirmed before starting.
An FCE may be requested when a referrer needs structured, observed information about physical performance in relation to work or daily demands. The referral question, testing scope and report recipient should be clear before scheduling.
You do not need a baseline level of fitness. The purpose of an individual assessment is to understand your current ability and choose an appropriate starting point. Share new, worsening or unexplained symptoms so the team can determine whether another healthcare assessment is needed first.
Expect a conversation about your goals, health and activity history, followed by assessment relevant to the service. You should leave with a clearer understanding of your starting point and recommended next steps.
Requirements vary by insurer, payer and service. Confirm referral, credential and reimbursement requirements directly with the organization responsible for your plan. Fleming Fitness does not determine or guarantee coverage, eligibility or authorization.
