Synergy Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, Empowering Through Movement since 2011.Synergy was born out of one question: "Why are motivated patients, after years of ‘traditional' rehab methods, unable to get better?"Dr. Raza Awan wasn't satisfied with the idea that some patients get better while others, simply don't. After years of exploring different treatments on himself and his patients, he noticed a common thread: lack of good movement instruction was holding his patients back from complete recovery. When Dr. Awan began to incorporate the practices of Pilates teacher, Riki Richter, he immediately saw great improvement in his own condition as well as the recovery of his patients.In 2011, Dr. Awan and Richter joined forces to create a new, comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach that unifies movement therapy with clinical treatment: Movement-Based Rehabilitation. Movement-Based Rehabilitation (MBR) combines Pilates and specialized, exercise-based rehab classes with physiotherapy and sports medicine. MBR changes the way patients heal because it changes the way they move. MBR builds body awareness and it reduces the chance of recurring injuries.Rehab care can often feel like you're just another number in an assembly line of problems. At Synergy, we pride ourselves on shifting the paradigm. We provide holistic and comprehensive treatment tailored specifically to your needs and your goals. You'll see a registered physiotherapist who has extensive post-graduate training in multiple areas of study as well as specialization in your area of concern.We spend our time with you.
