Physiotherapy Services
We are a specialized clinic, focusing on vestibular, concussion and TMJ disorders. We offer these services through a hybrid model of care (virtual and in-person), allowing us to provide individualized care and help people Ontario-wide.
Although your symptoms may come from a specific condition, Healing Vertigo takes a holistic and patient-focused approach. We consider your overall well-being and place you, the patient, at the center of the decision-making process, emphasizing your individual needs, preferences and value.
Vestibular
Get 1:1 treatment for BPPV, vestibular migraine, PPPD, vestibular neuritis and many other vestibular disorders! Plans are individualized and created specific for you based off of in-depth vestibular testing we will do together.
Concussion
Concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury resulting in a multitude of symptoms from vision changes and imbalance to altered cognitive and behavioural function. Work with us to develop an specific rehabilitation program based on a thorough concussion examination.
Temporomandibular Joint
TMJ problems present in a variety of ways including clicking of the jaw, locked jaw, muscle tension, headaches, and joint pain. Work with us to resolve these issues using a structured and individualized TMJ rehabilitation program.
Our Clinic Space
We are located in Hamilton, Ontario within the 30 Minute HIT. It is a single practitioner space, meaning you have full privacy when in the clinic. Sessions can be done in-person, virtually or a hybrid of both. Our space is wheelchair accessible.
Blaine | Patient Testimonial
After struggling with doctors appointments and a handful of specialist, Cheryl was able to diagnose my situation quickly and accurately. Suffering from post concussion symptoms, Cheryl quickly started me on a program combing in clinic work with at home exercises. Not only did the symptoms disappear, I feel my cognitive functionality improved generally, beyond what I feel was my 'norm".
Working with Cheryl has turned my life more positive and helped the progression of my career. I'm grateful to say my continued post concussion work is now maintenance rather than corrective!

Very cool! This will be helpful for friends and family suffering from vertigo and not sure how to deal with it! The creator is a professional physiotherapist with specialty in this area. Great idea to bring this out as an app!!
Pamela
This physiotherapist is excellent. She took great care successfully treating a family member for BPPV in person and we are now using this app to maintain and understand the condition. I am very glad this kind of help is available, especially now with Covid making some in person care a challenge.
Katherine
Really great info! The treatment instructions are easy to follow and I really did feel better afterwards
