Once screening points to the neck, treatment stays deliberately gentle and combines manual care with balance work. Several services below support that, and all of them run from the same building, which keeps a long drive down to one stop.

Who We Are
Harwood Avenue, Rotary Park and the Route West on Highway 401
Harwood Avenue and Rotary Park sit about 40 minutes east of the clinic, reached by driving west on Highway 401 and then north up to Highway 7.
Dizziness has several possible sources, and the neck is only one of them. Inner ear conditions, blood pressure changes, medication effects and central causes all need excluding first, so the initial appointment is screening. Neck related dizziness arrives with neck pain, feels like unsteadiness rather than spinning, and changes with head position held still. Where screening points that way, gentle joint work, muscle release and balance retraining are used, and progress is reviewed early.
- Multidisciplinary Team
Chiropractors, physiotherapists, and registered massage therapists collaborating under one roof, so your care is coordinated, not fragmented.
- Movement Based Approach
We assess how your body actually moves, then build a treatment plan that restores function from the foundation up. Kinetic. Core. Foundation.
“Dizziness gets sorted out before it gets treated. That is visit one.”
Forty minutes each way deserves a straight answer rather than a course of treatment aimed at the wrong target. The first appointment works out whether the neck explains the symptom. If it does not, you leave with a referral and an explanation rather than a treatment plan.
What We Offer
Chiropractic Treatments for Neck Related Unsteadiness
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care uses gentle mobilisation of the upper neck joints and release of the deep neck muscles, with high velocity technique avoided unless you specifically want it. Force stays minimal.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy adds balance retraining, eye and head coordination drills and deep neck flexor strengthening, which together address the sensory side of unsteadiness. Drills take five minutes daily.
Registered Massage Therapy
Massage therapy eases the sustained tension in the suboccipital and upper trapezius muscles that frequently accompanies neck related dizziness. Pressure is kept light and checked often.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture can help ease neck pain and muscle tightness feeding the symptom, using points at the neck and hand. Needling stays away from the head where you prefer that. Sessions run half an hour.
Class IV K-Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy calms irritated upper neck tissue without any pressure or movement, which suits patients who find manual contact provokes the unsteadiness. Sessions last minutes.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are unrelated to dizziness, although patients whose balance is affected by foot pain or an unstable ankle are assessed and cast in the same building on the same day.
Exercise Rehabilitation
Exercise rehabilitation rebuilds the balance, gaze stability and neck endurance that a long episode of unsteadiness erodes, supervised by a Registered Kinesiologist from the first session onwards.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Pelvic floor therapy sits outside this particular area of care, though the same unhurried, private approach applies to anyone who raises it during an appointment here at the clinic.
Pediatric & Pregnancy Chiropractic
Pediatric and pregnancy chiropractic covers gentle neck assessment in teenagers reporting dizziness after a sports impact, with same day medical referral where a concussion is suspected at all.
How It Works
Your Path from Pain to Lasting Movement
Every patient at KC Rehab follows the same proven four step process, designed to uncover the root cause of your pain or restriction and build a recovery plan that actually lasts.
Step 1
Consultation and Assessment
Your first visit begins with a detailed conversation about your history, lifestyle, and goals. We then perform a hands on movement assessment to identify the underlying mechanics behind your symptoms.
Step 2
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on your assessment findings, we build a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs, goals, and timeline. This may combine chiropractic, physiotherapy, RMT, acupuncture, and exercise rehabilitation.
Step 3
Active Treatment & Therapy
Your plan comes to life through manual therapy, targeted exercise, and the modalities best suited to your condition. Every session is monitored and adjusted based on your progress.
Step 4
Ongoing Care & Prevention
Once you have recovered, we equip you with the exercises, ergonomic advice, and maintenance schedule you need to stay pain-free and continue moving well for years to come.
Why CHoose Us
Why Ajax Patients Choose This Clinic
Screening comes before treatment, and referral out happens the same day where the picture points to an ear or central cause. Chiropractors here are registered with the College of Chiropractors of Ontario, and chiropractic care stays gentle by default.
Screening before any treatment
The first visit establishes whether the neck explains the dizziness, using positional testing, blood pressure checks and a careful history rather than assuming.
Gentle techniques by request
Mobilisation, instrument assisted work and muscle release do the job without any quick neck movement, and high velocity technique is used only if you ask.
Physician referral when needed
Where an ear, cardiac or central cause is possible, a same day referral letter goes to your physician instead of a treatment plan being started here.
Several professions on site
Balance retraining, gaze stability work and manual care all sit in one building, so a forty minute drive covers assessment and treatment in a single stop.
RESTORE. REBUILD. RECOVER.
Whether it has been a week or a decade, you do not have to keep adjusting your life around pain. Book your initial assessment at KC Rehab today and find out what real, movement based recovery actually feels like.

Frequent Asked Questions
Can neck problems cause dizziness?
Upper neck joints and muscles feed position information to the balance system, so irritation there can produce unsteadiness. The symptom usually appears alongside neck pain and stiffness. It tends to feel like floating rather than spinning. Other causes are excluded before that explanation is accepted.
What is cervicogenic dizziness in plain terms?
Dizziness arising from the neck rather than the inner ear, caused by faulty position signals from irritated upper neck structures. It is diagnosed by excluding other causes, not by one test. Neck pain almost always comes with it. KinetiCore Rehabilitation Centre screens for it as part of every neck assessment.
How is neck dizziness told apart from inner ear causes?
Ear causes usually produce spinning triggered by head movement, while neck causes produce unsteadiness linked to neck position and pain. Positional testing separates them reasonably well. Hearing change points towards the ear. Where doubt remains, physiotherapy and a physician opinion are arranged together.
Which tests screen the neck when dizziness appears?
Positional testing, neck movement measurement, balance and gaze stability testing, and blood pressure lying and standing. Cranial nerve screening is included where indicated. Nothing is treated until those results are in. To ask what the screening visit involves, please contact us.
Is the drive from Harwood Avenue justified for this?
The forty minute drive buys a screening assessment that separates neck causes from ear and medical ones in a single visit. Referral out happens the same day where that is needed. Several regulated professions share the building. Patients from Pickering make a similar trip for the same reason.
Should dizziness be checked by a physician first?
Does gentle neck treatment help unsteadiness?
Where the neck is the source, gentle mobilisation and muscle work can reduce unsteadiness within a few visits. Balance retraining is usually added alongside from the start. Progress is reviewed early rather than after a long course. Patients from West Hill follow the same short trial.
How long does neck related dizziness usually last?
Most cases settle over four to eight weeks once the neck is treated and balance work is underway. Episodes following an impact can take considerably longer. Symptoms not improving by six weeks prompt a further opinion. Recurrence is uncommon once neck movement and strength return.
