We have therapists that work in specific areas. Between us, we provide one on one physiotherapy, vestibular assessment and rehabilitation for concussion, balance & dizziness (vestibular) disorders, musculoskeletal injuries, sports injuries, surgeries, work and vehicle related accidents and neurological disorders.
We are currently the only physiotherapists in Abbotsford utilizing infra-red goggles which allows for more in depth and accurate vestibular assessment. Both of our vestibular therapists are committed to excellence in this area and sit on the Board of Directors for the Balance and Dizziness Society Canada.

A Concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury that typically occurs through a rapid head acceleration/deceleration. Fortunately, concussions generally resolve on their own and often do not require any other care than is provided by your family physician. Research shows that a graduated return to work and activity as well as progressive general exercise is important.

Disappointing.
After reading these great reviews and receiving a recommendation from the vestibular association in the US, I decided to book an appointment with Roland online.
Unfortunately, something went wrong and I ended up seeing a different practitioner who was very little help. He didn't even have me repeat the problematic movements that sent me there in the first place. I left not knowing the cause of the problem.
The appointment was on time.
The "treatment" was clean, tidy and very basic.
The female in reception from Kintec was friendly and helpful, in fact, I'll probably return for

We tried one of the bigger chains and it was not a great experience. Roly does a great job with my 12 year old son. His examinations are very thorough and he does a great job in communicating what he discovers. My son really likes Roly and the one on one time makes a big difference. The results are noticeable.
