    Yoon Mi is a wonderful Physiotherapist! I started seeing her a month ago for my shoulder and neck. Her treatments were very effective and the exercises she provided were very good. I'm finally on the mend. I would recommend Yoon Mi and the team at OPRC to everyone. Thank you so much!

    I have seen different chiropractors before but Dr. Gregory S. is definitely one of the best! He knows exactly what he is doing.

    My mother worked with Petra and Karolina and she said that they were very helpful for her. She also said that they were way better than the previous establishment. I am grateful that my mother is getting some relief. Thank you for helping me, my mother and my sister.

    Excellent, as always. I trust Dr. Stoltz. He is a great listener so he gets to the heart of the problem. Also his banter keeps me relaxed and that makes it easier for both of us. I heartily recommend him!

    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 🙏

    Honest, professional and effective. I have been suffering through back pain for the past 2 years. I spent thousands of dollars on physiotherapy, massage, and other forms of relief. The only person I met who was able to make a true and long lasting difference, was Dr.Stoltz. He has helped me regain my mobility, and my life. If he can help you, he will, and if he can't he will pass you on to another professional who can.

    Thanks for everything Dr.Stoltz!

  • 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.

    Dr. Greg stands out as an exceptional clinician with a unique combination of skills that augment his chiropractic practice. He is very thoughtful and informed in his approach, an excellent listener and able to pivot quickly and effectively if need be. He helped me rehab a back injury that had been lingering for sometime, including a confidence boost to make leaps in my progress. With his professional competency and personal integrity, Dr. Greg earns my highest recommendation.

    My husband and I have been long time clients of Petra. She is an excellent Massage Therapist! Every session with her will leave you feeling so relaxed and better all over because she takes the time to listen to her clients to understand their needs better. The OPRC staff are professional and the clinic is clean. I recommend them 100%.

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.
