Additional Information

Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) requires that decisions about health care are based on the best available, current, valid and relevant evidence. These decisions should be made by those receiving care, informed by the tacit and explicit knowledge of those providing care, within the context of available resources. The 'conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients.'

A best practice is a technique or methodology that, through experience and research, has proven to reliably lead to a desired result. A commitment to using the best practices in any field is a commitment to using all the knowledge and technology at one's disposal to ensure success.

There is a practice of health-care that calls itself “applied kinesiology” or Touch for health. Do not be confused by the fact that this kind of practice uses the name kinesiology. They are not the same.ServicesServices Provided by Kinesiologists,Clinical/Rehabilitation,Kinesiologists work with individuals with disabling conditions to assist in regaining their optimal physical function. They work with individuals in their home, fitness facilities, rehabilitation clinics, and at the worksite.

Health Promotion,Kinesiologists working in the health promotion industry focus on working with individuals to enhance the health, fitness, and well-being of the individual. Kinesiologists can be found working in fitness facilities, personal training/corporate wellness facilities, and industry.

Ergonomics,Kinesiologists work in industry to assess suitability of design of workstations and provide suggestions for modifications and assistive devices.Health and Safety,Kinesiologists are involved in consulting with industry to identify hazards and provide recommendations and solutions to optimize the health and safety of workers.

Disability Management/Case Coordination,Kinesiologists recommend and provide a plan of action to return an injured individual to their optimal function in all aspects of life.A Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) is an objective measure to determine an employee's capacity and ability for work. West Coast Kinesiology’s highly skilled Ergonomists utilize a systematic approach to assess flexibility, strength, coordination, cardiovascular condition and body mechanics.

We use the Matheson protocol, and this FCE represents the highest level of evaluation practice in the industry. This is the premiere Functional Capacity Evaluation training available today. It meets the reliability and validity requirements of the Practice Hierarchy of Industrial Rehabilitation, which sets the standard by which all functional capacity evaluations are judged.

The FCE protocol has been carefully built around evaluation tools which are widely accepted in the field, have been court-tested, have published peer-reviewed reliability and validity studies.It is usually performed against a specific job or set of job tasks. In other words, we will analyze the detailed job description (PDA) and then design the FCE protocol according to what the specific job demands are.

This will allow the worker and employer to know if the client is capable of performing the job, or if there are identified restrictions to their current abilities. It also allows for making recommendations to rectify any restrictions, whether through physical rehabilitation, or through administrative controls such as ceilings on lifting duties, restrictions of work heights, and rotation of task frequency or shift hours.
