Kinetic Control Therapy (KCT), or Kinetic Control Movement Therapy, is a progressive rehabilitation method aimed at detecting and addressing movement dysfunctions that can cause pain, limited mobility, or decreased physical performance. Unlike conventional therapies that focus solely on the symptomatic area, KCT employs a systemic, movement-oriented approach that evaluates functional movement quality across the entire kinetic chain.

Kinetic Control Therapy starts with a comprehensive evaluation of movement, guided by a thorough clinical reasoning framework. This involves analyzing muscle synergies, coordination strategies, and detecting uncontrolled movement patterns that could lead to recurring pain or injuries. Clinicians with KCT training excel at identifying how compensations—stemming from pain, fatigue, injury, or immobility, lead to maladaptive movement patterns. The therapy improves coordination, balance, and muscle engagement by addressing these dysfunctional synergies through customized retraining exercises.

Kinetic Control Therapy has many advantages, especially for patients with sports injuries, chronic pain, poor posture, and performance issues. In addition to relieving symptoms, KCT helps stop recurrence by addressing the underlying causes. Kinetic Control Therapy provides athletes and active people with evidence-based methods to improve biomechanics, boost performance, and facilitate a long-term return to daily activities or sports.
