Corrective Exercise Programs That Build on What Treatment Starts
Individualized, progressive exercise programming — designed around your movement screen findings, not a generic protocol. Delivered in-clinic and via app so you stay on track between visits.
Release It, Then Build Around It
Soft tissue therapy and joint treatment create a window of opportunity. Without reinforcing that change through movement and loading, the body defaults back to old compensation patterns. Corrective exercise is how we lock in the progress made on the table.
At Kinetix, corrective exercise isn’t an afterthought — it’s the second half of every treatment session. Once we’ve released restricted tissue and restored joint motion, we immediately load those newly available ranges with purposeful movement. That’s how lasting change happens.
Every program starts at the most challenging exercise you can execute well and progressively builds from there. No one-size-fits-all protocol. No random YouTube routines. Just precise, logical progression.
Stability
Establish neuromuscular control and joint stability at end-range. The foundation everything else is built on.
Mobility
Restore and reinforce full range of motion through progressive loading — not passive stretching alone.
Strength
Build tissue capacity around the restored ranges to handle training load without breaking down.
Power
Sport-specific loading patterns — rotational power, deceleration mechanics, and movement quality under fatigue.
What to Expect from Your Program
Simple, trackable, and built into your actual schedule — not something extra to figure out on your own.
Assessment-Driven Starting Point
Your SFMA results determine which movement patterns need correction first. The program always starts where the screen identifies need.
App Delivery with Video
Your program is sent via Physitrack — an app with sets, reps, and short video tutorials for every exercise so you always know exactly what to do.
Progressive Overload
Every follow-up visit we reassess and advance the program — increasing complexity, load, or introducing sport-specific patterns as you improve.
Integrated Into Treatment
Corrective exercise isn’t a separate appointment — it’s built into every session after soft tissue and joint work, reinforcing the changes we’ve made.
Rooted in Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS)
Kinetix corrective programming is grounded in DNS principles — a rehabilitation approach based on developmental kinesiology. DNS uses the natural motor development patterns humans use from infancy to establish deep stabilization and efficient movement.
Rather than isolating muscles, DNS trains the nervous system to coordinate whole-body stability automatically — the foundation for all athletic movement and injury prevention.
Intra-abdominal Pressure
Training the diaphragm and pelvic floor as the primary spinal stabilizers before adding load to the extremities.
Joint Centration
Optimizing joint alignment to maximize load distribution and reduce tissue wear under athletic demands.
Developmental Positions
Using positions from human motor development (prone, supine, quadruped) to restore foundational movement patterns.
Global to Sport-Specific
Starting with universal movement quality, then progressing to your sport’s specific demands and loading patterns.
Corrective Exercise — Common Questions
What is corrective exercise and how is it different from regular exercise?
Corrective exercise targets specific movement dysfunctions identified through assessment — it’s prescriptive, not general fitness. Where regular exercise builds fitness broadly, corrective exercise fixes the specific patterns that are causing pain or limiting performance. At Kinetix, every program is based on your SFMA movement screen results, not a generic template.
How often do I need to do the corrective exercises?
Most programs are designed for 10–20 minutes daily, 5–7 days per week. The exercises are targeted and efficient — not lengthy. Consistency between sessions is what drives progress. Dr. Matt builds programs that are realistic for your actual schedule, not an ideal one.
Can I keep lifting or training while doing corrective exercise?
Yes — in most cases corrective exercise complements your existing training rather than replacing it. Dr. Matt identifies which training movements to temporarily modify versus which to keep, so you’re reinforcing better movement patterns without unnecessary downtime from the activities you care about.
Will I get the exercises to take home?
Yes. Every patient receives their program through the Physitrack app with sets, reps, and short video tutorials demonstrating each exercise. You’ll have everything you need to train correctly between visits — no printing required.
