Experience the Benefits.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Vestibular Rehabilitation is a specific treatment approach to Balance Disorders and Vertigo (the sensation of the room spinning or images moving). These disorders can be very disabling and can affect every aspect of one’s life. Vestibular Rehabilitation focuses on identifying the cause of the disorder, and treating it appropriately.
Balance Disorders can stem from a number of sources, such as inner ear, neck, muscles, or even the brain itself. Treatment generally includes repositioning techniques, compensatory exercises and adaptation exercises.
Pilates Classes
Pilates
Pilates is ideal for a broad spectrum of individuals who are interested in preventing and/or recovering from an injury, as well as those who experience general stiffness and tension throughout the body.
Pilates links the mind and body and re-balances the muscles around the joints to allow the body to move precisely and efficiently. It restores the natural curves of the spine while enhancing strength, flexibility, co-ordination, and body awareness.
We offer:
- Group Mat Sessions – exercises are performed on a mat. Several levels of instruction are available and your level will be established by the physiotherapist.
