Vestibular Rehabilitation is a specialized physiotherapy treatment program that is individualized for each client and aims to relieve the symptoms and discomfort associated with vertigo, dizziness and balance problems. Concussion Rehabilitation consists of screening for concussion, conducting a differential diagnosis, treating and managing symptoms related to the trauma.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

La physiothérapie vestibulaire est un programme spécialisé pour chaque client, qui vise à soulager les symptômes et l'inconfort associés aux vertiges, aux étourdissements et aux problèmes d'équilibre. La réadaptation après une commotion cérébrale consiste à dépister la commotion, à établir un diagnostic différentiel, à traiter et à gérer les symptômes liés au traumatisme.

Eric has expertise in Dizziness (Vestibular) Rehab, Dry Needling, Orthopaedics (FCAMPT status), Cranial Mobilization and CranioSacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, Sports Injuries and Concussion Rehab.

Eric obtained Bachelors and Masters degrees in Kinesiology and Sports Medicine. He then completed his Physiotherapy degree at McMaster University in 2001. After years of subsequent training Eric received his Diploma in Advanced Manual & Manipulative Therapy, thus is a Fellow with the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy (FCAMPT). http://manippt.org

Since joining in 2006, Eric loves being part of the Killens Reid team. He focuses his patient care not only through his Manual and Exercise Therapy, but also by several other methods: Having become a Functional Dry Needling Practitioner™ (see evidenceinmotion.com), Eric finds that his patients get even better success in achieving their functional goals and symptom relief. More recently, he has added Cranial Mobilizations (see doreenkillens.education), CranioSacral Therapy (see upledger.com), and Visceral Manipulation (see barralinstitute.com) which he realizes were the missing links in treating patients’ complex symptomatology. He has extensive experience in dizziness treatment and received his Certification in Vestibular Rehabilitation from Emory University in Atlanta. He is thus able to distinguish causes of dizziness and balance problems, and treats with repositioning techniques, adaptation / habituation / balance / vision exercises, plus manual therapy to the head, neck and abdomen. Also, following additional Concussion Rehab courses, he can effectively tease out different factors contributing to post-concussion syndrome, and treat them accordingly. Finally, his training in Running Injury Prevention and Treatment has simplified the return-to-run process.

A former Canadian Cross-Country Ski Team member, Eric keeps in shape with his family by skiing, cycling, running, swimming, paddling and singing!
