    I go to OPRC for 2 services. I see Karolina for chiropractic care. I absolutely love her adjustments. The way she does her adjustments are smooth and I just love her technique. She also does acupuncture and I find it really helps with my treatments. I also see Andre for massage and I can not say enough about how great he is. He goes above and beyond for his clients. He cares about helping you and making sure you feel better. The knowledge he has is beyond any other massage therapist I have ever seen. He really is a master at what he does and I am so grateful that I found him!! Everyone at the office that I have met are incredible, fGreg, Austin and Pat as well as Charlotte. Always welcoming everyone with a smile and they brighten my day. I am so happy that I have found this clinic where it feels like home! I highly recommend them!

    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!

  • I have known Petra for 10 years plus during all that time she always had a smile on her face. She takes the time to examine her clients and will listen to your needs. She is an amazing, compassionate and very professional. I always finished my own treatments with the highest levels of satisfaction. I am always in awe, when she is done with a massage, as the worst part of a massage for me, is the end. Thank you, Petra, for providing such great service!

    Walking in for the first time all the staff were very friendly and informative. Andrei was extremely educational and communicative during my entire experience. I felt some instant release in some spots but know there’s lots of work to be done. I Highly recommend Andrei, as soon as the session as done he emailed me some movements and stretches to do at home and prepared me for next session to save us time and get straight to work.

  • 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.

    Greg (chiropractor) is amazing! He resolved my issue in just one treatment. He takes the time to loosen the joint before adjusting, which made a huge difference. The staff is super friendly, and the whole experience was great. Highly recommend!

  • Greg Stoltz is by far the best chiropractor I've ever worked with, I been to many in my day & he is second to none. His knowledge of the body, techniques and personality alone are just a few of many reasons I will continue to work with him for many years to come

    John is amazing! I came in with a neck injury that left my neck in a tilt and he corrected it in one session! The follow up appointment was fantastic as well. He freely offers up tools and advice to prevent injuries, he listens to you when it’s getting painful, he has a calming demeanor and voice, and he’s just a generally cool and fun guy to talk to. If my schedule and insurance would allow it, I would be here once a week.

    It took convincing to get me back to a chiropractor as I had previously had a bad experience. One session with Greg changed that. His confidence became my confidence. He lets you know what is needed and gets the job done. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

  • I came to Dr Stoltz unable to walk from the back pain I had. I walked out in just a couple of sessions perfectly. He explained everything in detail my issues and what can be done to help me now and in the future. Excellent service and advise provided! Thank you!

    I received the best massage ever today from the healing hands of Petra. She took some extra care with my problematic shoulder and for the first time in months, my shoulder was pain free. My next session with her is already booked! Thank you Petra!

  • Andrei really helped with my leg and knee pain.Andrei took the time to discuss my knee concerns in detail and explained how tightness in the surrounding muscles could be contributing. That conversation gave me a clearer understanding of the problem. He targeted the exact muscles causing the discomfort and used just the right pressure. I walked out with my legs feeling lighter, looser, and much less sore. Highly recommended if you need focused therapeutic work.

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.
