Individualized programs available for clients with conditions which include but are not limited to:

We also feature a state-of-the-art Balance & Mobility Center featuring the NeuroCom system. This system examines all the components involved in maintaining balance: eyes, inner ear and muscles and joints, and can determine whether one or more are abnormal. National studies have found that 80 to 90 percent of people with these problems can benefit from vestibular and/or balance therapy.
If you suffer from any of these issues, ask your doctor for a referral today.
