Neurac Therapy in Ottawa by Physiocare Physiotherapists
Hands‑on sling suspension neuromuscular treatment by our team at Physiocare in Ottawa.
Physiocare's Experience in Action
Understanding Neurac Therapy
Neurac Therapy leverages high levels of neuromuscular stimulation via sling suspension to retrain functional movement patterns. Grounded in neurophysiological motor control and proprioceptive feedback, it addresses root causes over symptoms. Recent randomized work shows measurable improvements in motor coordination and shoulder strength in subacromial impingement cases. It’s gaining acceptance for its ability to restore pain‑free movement through active, low‑load dynamic retraining.
How does Neurac Therapy work?
Using body‑weight resistance and often vibration, Neurac sling exercises engage tonic stabilizers while minimizing nociceptor activation. By combining suspension mechanics with active contraction, it enhances muscle response patterns and postural balance. In chronic low back pain, integrated Neurac vibration significantly improved pain, strength, and balance more than traditional side‑lying exercises. Meta‑analyses affirm its superiority in reducing disability and increasing core muscle activation .
Benefits of Neurac Therapy
- Pain reduction & improved function in neck, back, and shoulder syndromes
- Enhanced postural balance & proprioception, restoring neuromotor control
- Increased muscular strength, especially shoulder rotators and core stabilizers
- Greater flexibility, notably in the hamstrings and posterior chain
Quality‑of‑life improvements, reducing fatigue and disability in chronic pain sufferers
Conditions Treated with Neurac Therapy in Ottawa
Neurac Therapy is ideal for remediating dysfunctional movement patterns and stabilizer weakness. It tackles the underlying neuromuscular deficits to re-establish pain-free, efficient biomechanics.
At Physiocare, we treat a wide array of conditions including chronic low back pain, neck pain, shoulder impingement, knee instability, post‑stroke hemiplegia, hamstring tightness, and general core weakness. This sling-based intervention also supports recovery from sports injuries and improves balance in neurological patients.
Major Conditions With Neurac Therapy
- Chronic Low Back Pain: Enhances postural muscle activation and reduces pain through improved balance
- Neck Pain/Cervical Radiculopathy: Reduces pain, fatigue, and disability while boosting proprioception
- Subacromial Impingement: Strengthens rotators and increases range of motion in shoulder dysfunction.
- Hamstring Tightness: Neuromuscular activation increases hamstring flexibility, lasting beyond one week.
- Post-Stroke & Neurological Weakness: Combined with MET, enhances limb function, balance, and quality of life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Neurac Therapy
Often within 3–6 sessions, patients report better stability and reduced pain, evidence supported by randomized trials.
No. Neurac exercises use low‑load suspension to minimize pain while activating stabilizer muscles.
Ideal for individuals with chronic musculoskeletal dysfunction, post‑stroke weakness, or athletes needing neuromuscular control.
It targets neural motor function via active sling loading and vibration, moving beyond passive modalities.
Yes—research shows improvements in core strength, agility, and sport performance.
Combined with MET, Neurac enhances limb function, balance, and daily living independence.
Not initially. Basic home exercises are taught; advanced sling units aren’t required except in‑clinic.
