Through a combination of chiropractic care, physical therapy, acupuncture, massage therapy, pre- and post-natal classes, personal training, yoga, Pilates or GYROTONIC®, the experts at Beverly Hills Posture Rehabilitation Institute design a program individualized to your specific needs to eliminate pain and provide you with a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Philosophy
Our philosophy of involving the patient extends to all forms of treatment. Although Dr. Ozar believes that spinal manipulation, as an alternative medical practice, is both restorative and less invasive than many medical procedures, it is not a tool that is necessary for every patient. If manipulation is necessary, Dr. Ozar consults the patient before treatment so that there are never any surprises. Further, Dr. Ozar believes in manipulating the spine only when the muscles ...
... and joints are limber, so all chiropractic treatments are preceded by at least 45 minutes of massage therapy and/or acupuncture to loosen the muscles.

Women's Health Center
Pregnancy is one of the most exciting and beautiful events in a woman's life, but it can also take a physical toll on her body. The added weight of the baby coupled with the hormone induced increase in flexibility of the joints and muscles can cause pain in the low back, hips and pelvis, an inability to sit for long periods of time, reduced range of motion, and painful sex. By teaching the mother how to strengthen her core muscles and improve her breathing patterns, Pilates and Gyrotoic help prepare her both physically and mentally for the challenges of childbirth.

Why Pilates?
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends daily, low impact exercise for all healthy pregnant women. It's been shown that expectant mothers who exercise have shorter labors, easier deliveries and greater self esteem. Pilates is a fantastic, non impact way of improving overall strength and stability, something that pregnant women lose as their homones surge and their muscles and joints become hyper mobile.

An expectant mother's abs will stretch over 50% of their original length during pregnancy. It's therefore imperative that they stay strong. Abdominal training in pre-natal Pilates focuses on the transversus or deepest layer of the abdominals. A strong transversus supports the growing uterus, decreases pressure on the lower back and pelvic floor, helps control the size of diastasis recti that usually occurs around 20 weeks, and assists the mother in regaining her pre-baby body postpartum.

Why Beverly Hills Posture & Rehabilitation Institute?
We at BHP believe in the importance of training expectant mothers for the nine month marathon of pregnancy and childbirth. Our teachers are certified in pre-natal Pilates and Gyrtonic and our facility features a full gym as well as three private Pilates rooms. On staff, we also have two physical therapists, an occupational therapist, an acupuncturist, a massage therapist and Dr. Walker Ozar -- a highly trained, respected chiropractor who also happens to be the father of three and has seen first hand, how important pelvic floor training is to a successful, pain free pregnancy.

What to expect ?
First, a patient will need to fill out a set of Patient Forms providing us with your medical history and the reason for your visit. These forms can either be filled out and sent online or else in the office before your first visit.

Dr. Ozar often prescribes Pilates and Gyrotonic to his patients to help them build the necessary muscle strength to maintain their pain free state
