Exercise and kinesiotherapy is a hybrid program where you have the combination of exercise science and kinesiotherapy. Learners who complete this program will have an improved physiological understanding of how the body responds and adapts to exercise, and will be able to design an exercise program that impact health and training. Kinesiotherapy is the application of scientifically based exercise principles adapted to enhance the strength, endurance, and mobility of individuals with functional limitations. And determine the appropriate evaluation tools and interventions necessary to establish, in collaboration with the client, a goal-specific treatment plan. The depth of our exercise science degree program provides excellent preparation for students interested in dual credentials in the areas of medicine, chiropractic, physician assistant, physical therapy, occupational therapy, cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation, coaching, and other health and fitness professionals
