Comment on Ask HN: How can you buy high quality healthcare?parent

These aren’t fitness instructors. The trainer in this medical setting is someone that has you perform exercises to restore mobility rather than for general fitness. There’s certainly a link between the two but that’s not why you go to a hospital to work out.

Kinesiology is the study of how the body moves. While the largest target audience for that is going to be people looking for a standard gym fitness trainer, the higher degrees are wasted on that sort of thing and are better used to restore the range of motion of an elbow after a car accident.
