The purpose of physiotherapy remains the same, no matter what you are seeking its services for.

Perhaps you are still suffering from the lingering pain of an injury. Perhaps you are recovering from surgery and trying to get your range of motion back. Perhaps your joints simply aren’t what they used to be, and you are looking for relief.

Whatever the case may be, physiotherapists are dedicated to relieving your pain and getting you back to your peak level of physical health.

A physiotherapist is a movement specialist, educated in analyzing mobility issues with walking, running, jumping, bending, stretching, and almost every other form of physical activity.

Our physiotherapist can pinpoint problem areas and create a customized treatment plan aimed at improving those areas.

Through in-office sessions and at-home exercises, patients strengthen their muscles and joints, improve their balance, build endurance, and experience pain relief, all without the unwanted harmful risks of drugs or surgery.

Vestibular therapy is also referred to as vestibular rehabilitation, and is conducted through a process of “adaptation and compensation.”

This means that the vestibular system is actually being “reprogrammed” through both passive and active therapies to form connections with the brain on adjusting imbalances and regaining stability.

Some common balance disorders that we treat through vestibular therapy include:

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV)
Vestibular neuritis/labyrinthitis
Concussion
Migraines
Age related balance changes

At Anatomy Physiotherapy Clinic, we provide vestibular therapy for our patients suffering from balance disorders in Ottawa and surrounding areas.

Balance disorders refer to a broad range of conditions, but they are all connected by the effect they have on the vestibular system, also known as the inner ear.
