You do not need a doctor’s referral to see a registered kinesiologist or exercise physiologist. If you are participating in formal exercise for the first time (or for the first time in a long time), we do encourage open communication with your doctor. Our clinicians will ensure you are safe to exercise at a capacity that is tolerable and meaningful for your goals. Some extended health care plans require a physician’s note to have registered kinesiology and exercise physiology sessions reimbursed.
