Equilibrium Rehab was established in 1999 by Meg Richards to assist patients in Brisbane QLD who have neurological and vestibular complaints through providing specialized physiotherapy services in private outpatient rehabilitation.
Initially the focus was on neurological conditions, but it became evident over a number of years that there was a greater need in the community for management of vestibular problems. Thus today a large percentage of the practice is devoted to vestibular rehabilitation.
Although based in Annerley we provide services to many areas in Brisbane through branch clinics in Kippa Ring and Cleveland, and we also receive referrals from throughout Queensland, Northern Territory and northern New South Wales.
Equilibrium Rehab now has a second physiotherapist, Marion Baxter, who has been trained in the specialty of Vestibular Rehabilitation. Marion came to Equilibrium Rehab in July 2008 and has an extensive background in treatment of neurological conditions
In May 2008 Tania Steward started working for Equilibrium Rehab as an Office Manager. She works most weekday mornings and is available to answer questions and make bookings on the office number.
