Kinetic Chain Physical Therapy is traditional physical therapy with the additional utilization of a biomechanical model to analyze the movement of the body. This model depicts the body as a linked system of interdependent segments. Rather than isolating a specific body part, this approach rehabilitates the entire neuro-muscular system linking each segment to the next.

The goal of Kinetic Chain rehabilitation is to discover the weak link or links in the chain and then design a specific program for each individual. Weak links are often caused by muscle imbalances and faulty movement patterns that allow for pain, swelling and irritation of the associated soft tissue, nerves and joints.
