Dr. Ian Haslam is a physical therapist at Neurology, Psychiatry and Balance Therapy Center who works with patients experiencing dizziness, balance problems, neurologic conditions, chronic pain, and orthopedic limitations. His background adds depth to NPBTC’s physical therapy team and supports the practice’s effort to expand authority around neurological and vestibular rehabilitation.
Dr. Ian Haslam, PT, DPT is a physical therapist who brings a broad background in neurological rehabilitation, vestibular therapy, home care, and orthopedic physical therapy to NPBTC. He graduated with honors in Exercise Science from West Chester University in 2016 and earned his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Drexel University in 2020. His interest in physical therapy was shaped early on by helping his father, who has multiple sclerosis, and seeing firsthand how therapy can improve function and quality of life during flare-ups and hospitalizations.
Dr. Haslam has experience treating patients with dizziness and vestibular conditions, balance problems, neurological conditions, chronic pain, and sports or orthopedic injuries. During his training, he participated in research exploring chronic pain, its effects on the body, and best practices for long-term management, which continues to inform his patient-centered, education-focused approach to care.
He believes that effective physical therapy is rooted in individualized attention, clear communication, and building trust, and he strives to help patients achieve meaningful goals both in the clinic and in their everyday lives.

Dr. Haslam’s care approach is built around one-on-one, individualized physical therapy that meets patients where they are and helps them gradually build confidence and function. His experience supporting a family member with multiple sclerosis, combined with his background in neurological, vestibular, and orthopedic rehabilitation, informs a style that is both compassionate and encouraging.
He takes time to understand what is most important to each patient—whether that is reducing dizziness, improving balance, walking more steadily, managing chronic pain, or returning to specific activities—then designs targeted exercise programs that are challenging but achievable. Throughout treatment, he emphasizes clear communication, education about the condition, and practical strategies patients can continue at home, all within the broader NPBTC team approach to neurological and vestibular care.
