At Temple Human Performance, we believe true health is not just about treating symptoms—it’s about restoring function, movement, and confidence in the body. That’s why we developed the Physiokinetix Training Program (PKT): a progressive, research-backed system designed to enhance mobility, reduce pain, and improve performance through intelligent movement.
A Functional Framework for Real-World Movement
Physiokinetix is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s a four-level, structured progression that integrates manual therapy, applied neuroscience, functional movement, and corrective exercise. Whether you’re recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, or optimizing your athletic performance, PKT provides the tools and strategies to help you move better—safely, efficiently, and with purpose.
Developed by Paul Kelly, a nationally approved educator and manual therapist with over 30 years of clinical experience, the system blends scientific research with practical applications tested in real-world clinical settings.
The Four-Level System
Each level in the PKT system targets a distinct phase of neuromuscular progression:
-
Mobility – Improve joint and soft tissue mobility to remove mechanical restrictions.
-
Stability – Develop neuromuscular control and joint centration to support movement.
-
Power – Train proprioception, endurance, balance, and motor timing to improve functional performance.
-
Performance – Advance movement patterns with complex motor tasks and neuro-modifiers for peak output.
Our clients at the Knoxville center experience these benefits through hands-on therapy, one-on-one training, and guided home-based progression. Whether you’re an everyday mover or elite athlete, PKT offers a clear path to improved performance and pain-free movement.
Designed With Tools That Drive Success
Physiokinetix is supported by custom-designed wellness equipment—including resistance bands, proprioceptive pads, and mobility straps—that allow for progressive loading, proprioceptive engagement, and safe home reinforcement. These tools are integrated into both the in-person sessions and video-guided home care to ensure lasting results.
Who Benefits from PKT?
This program is ideal for:
-
Rehabilitation clients managing chronic pain, dysfunction, or post-surgical recovery
-
Athletes looking to increase efficiency, durability, and output
-
Active adults and seniors focused on fall prevention, balance, and long-term independence
-
Busy professionals who want efficient, science-driven self-care they can do anywhere
Whether you’re in recovery or peak condition, the program adapts to your level, goals, and lifestyle.
For Healthcare Professionals
The PKT system has also become the foundation for a growing Continued Education Program for therapists, trainers, chiropractors, dentists, and other healthcare professionals. Practitioners can now study the same framework we use in our clinic through structured workshops, video modules, and certifications—expanding their own treatment impact using the proven PKT methodology.
