    I have been enduring my back pain/neck pain for as long as I can remember. Pain patches were not helping anymore. I have seen Dr. Stoltz just for the first time and he explained to me in full detail what's going on and what will be the plan not just for the pain but for my whole well being as well. I left half of my back pain gone just after the first session. Thank you Dr. Stoltz!

    Yoon Mi Bae is very professional and thorough. I went in with a tear in my shoulder and in a lot of pain. Within two sessions I can see the improvement, which has me feeling hopeful. I highly recommend her.

  • I was seen by Dr. Gregory Stoltz today for the 2nd time. The first time was the original assessment but he did manage to offer some relief through some acupuncture. The relief was good for about 24-30 hours but overall my pain was somewhat more manageable after that. Today for my 2nd session, he was bang on schedule and did some physical therapy and minor manipulation. Guided me through some basic exercises and was able to get me another appointment later this week. So far, he has been a great help to get me back to a functioning state. Look forward to seeing more progress as we continue on my road to recovery.

    About a year ago I was looking for seperate places to do chiropractor, physio and massage that did direct billing- I had a hard time finding what I was looking for and when I did they didn't direct bill so I was extremely Happy to find OPRC which has all of the above services(and more) under one roof. When you first get there Austin is very kind. She makes you feel welcome and always works around your schedule to find the best dates/times. Dr Greg, Abdullah and John have all been utmost professional, amazing at their skill sets/profession and leave you feeling better than when you walked in. With their comprehensive care I have overcame a shoulder injury snd almost overcome a knee injury. Also Dr.Greg makes you feel comfortable but pushes you to do your absolute best for the best results. He knows the human body very well and is honest which I think is important in healing your body. I will continue to go to OPRC for my care for as Long as I need care Thank you guys 😊

    I saw Dr. Abdallah Najem for my knee so I could return to hiking. He has given me excellent care, giving me regular exercises that he updated as I progressed. He really cares about what he is doing and is knowledgeable. Note: he is fluent in French.

  • I went to OPRC and had a great massage with John! He was able to help with my neck pain and felt much better afterwards. If you need a great treatment OPRC is a very friendly clinic. They even did my direct billing!

    Dr. Stoltz is a professional and knows his job. He is very friendly and makes you feel relax and comfortable. I have been suffering from neck and shoulder pain for quite a long time and he helped me to mange my pain and feel it less and less over time. My first session with him was magical when I walked out from his office, I did not have any pain. I highly recommend him and his services.

    Not only is he very friendly and professional, he effectively helps manage my fibromyalgia. Which is honestly hard to find when looking for a chiropractor because most medical professionals don't believe it's a real condition let alone make you feel comfortable enough to open up about your struggles with chronic pain. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in the Ottawa area looking for a chiropractor

    I had my first visit to a chiropractor here yesterday. I had an initial checkup on my spine as well as some adjustments, as a mechanic I found my neck was consistently tight for months. I visited Dr. Karolina Michalowski here who did some adjustments and founded significant increase in mobility. Thanks Dr Karolina 🙏

  • My name's Carlos and I met Dr. Greg on mid July 2020. Initially I was there for back pain. I recall month and a half or two when I started to feel less pain and more capable, therefore I took it to a different level. I've an insane workout routine. I want to be shredded, cut, ripped, jacked, you name it!. I see Greg every 21 days and he keeps me running and free of pain. He knows what I want and do then he adjusts the sessions accordingly including acupuncture!. Go see him regardless of what your goals are.

What is Vestibular Physiotherapy, and How Does It Work?

Vestibular physiotherapy is a specialized form of physical therapy that focuses on treating conditions related to the inner ear and balance system. The vestibular system plays a crucial role in how your body senses motion and maintains equilibrium. When it’s not working properly, the result can be dizziness, nausea, blurred vision, vertigo, or balance issues that seem to come out of nowhere.

 

At Ottawa Physical Rehab Clinic, our vestibular physiotherapy program begins with a comprehensive one-hour assessment. During this session, we use evidence-based tests to examine how your eyes, brain, and inner ears work together to maintain balance. We identify the root cause of your symptoms—whether it's BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo), vestibular neuritis, post-concussion syndrome, or other conditions—and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) uses a combination of:

 

  • Gaze stabilization exercises
  • Balance retraining
  • Positional maneuvers
  • Habituation exercises
  • Functional movement training

 

This holistic approach helps your body adapt and recalibrate, reducing dizziness and restoring normal function.

Vestibular Rehab OPRC

Our Approach to Vestibular Rehabilitation

At Ottawa Physical Rehab Clinic, we don’t just treat symptoms—we treat people. Every vestibular physiotherapy journey starts with listening to your story. We want to know what you're feeling, when it happens, and how it affects your life. From there, we conduct an in-depth vestibular assessment to map out your unique challenges and goals.

 

Once we understand the source of your symptoms, our team crafts a custom rehab plan that evolves with your progress. You’ll receive one-on-one care from trained professionals who specialize in vestibular therapy. We’ll guide you through each movement, monitor your progress, and modify your program as needed to ensure maximum results.

 

We believe recovery is a partnership—your input matters. Our clinic is a space where questions are welcomed, fears are addressed, and healing happens at your pace.

Why Choose Vestibular Physiotherapy at OPRC?

If you’ve been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told to “wait it out,” you’re not alone. But there is a solution, and vestibular physiotherapy can make all the difference. Here are just a few reasons why people across Ottawa trust our clinic:

 

  • Accurate Diagnosis: Our 1-hour vestibular assessment uses cutting-edge tools and clinical reasoning to identify exactly what's going on so we can stop guessing and start healing.
  • Personalized Treatment: No cookie-cutter programs. Every rehab plan is built just for you, with exercises that target your specific symptoms and challenges.
  • Long-Term Relief: Unlike medication that masks symptoms, vestibular therapy treats the root cause, leading to lasting improvements and fewer recurrences.
  • Faster Recovery: Many clients report improved balance and reduced dizziness within just a few sessions.

Supportive Care: We don’t rush, and we never leave you in the dark. Our clinicians explain every step and walk with you from day one to full recovery.
