ABOUT FIRST STEPS

First Steps Wellness Centre (FSWC) is a non-profit organization with charitable status. We opened our doors in 2010 and have become the leading facility in Canada for spinal cord injury and neurorehabilitation. We provide innovative activity-based therapy (ABT) for people with spinal cord injuries and associated disorders. We have adapted our methods to provide ABT to individuals who have experienced stroke or traumatic brain injuries, as well as those with other neurological conditions. Our goal is to help improve the motor function of individuals who have suffered neurological trauma or who have neurological conditions, thus improving their independence and overall quality of life.

FSWC logoWe exist to fill the gap in community based intensive ABT for individuals with spinal cord injuries and other associated disorders. ABT helps to promote neuroplasticity and nerve regeneration below the level of injury. We believe that each individual has a potential to recover lost function. FSWC continues to grow and expand to provide the best neurorehabilitation in the country.
