If you’ve been struggling with dizziness, vertigo, or lingering symptoms after a concussion, finding the right physical therapist can make all the difference.

At Custom Care Rehab, we’re excited to welcome Nicole Felice, DPT, to our team in May 2026—bringing advanced training in vestibular rehabilitation, concussion recovery, and neurologic physical therapy directly to your home.

Specialized Vestibular Therapy in Northeast Ohio

Dizziness isn’t just frustrating—it can affect your confidence, mobility, and daily life.

Nicole specializes in treating:

  • Vertigo (including BPPV)

  • Persistent dizziness and imbalance

  • Concussion and post-concussion symptoms

  • Vestibular disorders (inner ear dysfunction)

  • Neurologic conditions affecting balance

With her certification from the American Institute of Balance (2025), Nicole uses evidence-based techniques to help retrain your brain and body so you can feel steady again.

What Makes Nicole’s Approach Different?

Many patients come to us after trying traditional physical therapy without success.

Nicole takes a whole-body, personalized approach, combining:

  • Vestibular rehabilitation exercises

  • Manual therapy techniques

  • Myofascial release

  • Cupping therapy

  • Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM)

  • (Coming soon) Dry needling

Instead of just treating symptoms, she identifies the root cause of your dizziness or pain—so you can experience long-term relief.
