#138: Rachel Robertson: How to recover from injury and build strength that lasts
In this episode of the Kate Hamilton Health Podcast, I'm joined by kinesiologist and Pilates specialist Rachel Robertson for a deep, practical, and inspiring conversation on how to move better, feel stronger, and recover smarter.
With over 10 years of experience, Rachel breaks down the real differences between kinesiology and physiotherapy, the power of mindset in the recovery process, and the biggest movement mistakes people make - especially when it comes to squats, hinging, and posture. We also chat about her athletic background, her experience with kettlebell sport and figure skating, and how all of that shapes her approach to rehabilitation and performance.
Whether you're healing from an injury, navigating postpartum changes, or simply trying to move through life with more strength and confidence, this episode is full of practical takeaways.

[0:56] What kinesiology is and how it differs from physiotherapy
