Who We Are

Janice Webber

Her practice uses traditional methods such as exercise programs, manual therapies as well as non-traditional methods such as: acupuncture, intramuscular stimulation (IMS), manual therapy, connective tissue therapy, craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulations, advanced cranial therapy, and vascular therapy.

She has, over the last 10 years, worked in the field of women's health including problems such as urinary stress incontinence, urge incontinence, pelvic pain which may include the physical issues associated with sexual abuse, and nocturia.

She also treats children's urinary incontinence problems. She treats babies, infants, and children for pain issues, difficulty with their sucking mechanism, difficulty meeting developmental milestones, and birth trauma.

Janice incorporates Tai Chi in her repertoire of physiotherapy methods as a means of having fun while exercising. Tai Chi is effective in improving balance, coordination, muscle strength, cardiovascular fitness, slowing the progression of osteoporosis and general strength. Fun while exercising is also a great way to reduce stress.

She is certified in Tai Chi for Arthritis, Tai Chi for Osteoporosis, Tai Chi for Diabetes, Tai Chi @ Work and teaches a Tai Chi for Stress Reduction class/workshop that she developed.
