ABOUT VITALITY PHYSIOTHERAPY AND WELLNESS CENTRE
Located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada is Vitality Physiotherapy and Wellness Centre. Vitality’s mission is to inspire patients to live a healthy and active lifestyle through movement and empower them to better their lives through therapeutic exercise.

THE CHALLENGE
To best keep businesses operating efficiently, companies are pivoting from paper documents to digitized processes and operation management. With the popularity of iPad® being utilized as a business tool, the team at Vitality Physiotherapy and Wellness Centre wanted to utilize the Apple device for everything from guest check-in, to guest reviews and tracking patient records. However, with demanding appointment schedules and a constant flow of client traffic coming in and out, keeping devices charged and displayed in a way that would allow them to effectively maintain a professional setup and easily accessible proved to be challenging.
The team at Vitality Physiotherapy and Wellness Centre wanted to find a way to digitize their internal processes with technology that could be integrated into the facility while maintaining the aesthetics that are important to their brand image while ensuring the most premium client experience at every touchpoint. With struggles to find a proper solution to keep iPads charged and protected in a beautiful way at their first location, Vitality reached out to Square Design and Build to help find a solution for their new flagship location.
Square Design and Build were awarded this project to design the newest Vitality Physiotherapy and Wellness Centre facility and turned to IPORT to incorporate functional technology that would enhance the aesthetics of the space, align with their brand image of beautiful design, and streamline numerous processes to help the facility run smoothly.
“From the moment a guest walks through the door, to ensuring staff has the tools to run a smooth operation, every aspect of our design and technology integration needs to feel cohesive. Having beauty, comfort, and innovative functionality is what we were aiming for. IPORT allowed us to seamlessly add technology into the space, without losing the integrity or vision of the space. IPORT is now an extension of our creation.”

METHODOLOGY
Business is driven by Apps. iPad deployments have become a necessity. The optimal solution for iPad deployments in business is the combination of the iPad, applications, and the method to hold, charge, and protect the device.
For over 15 years, the product engineers at IPORT have continually explored and refined the way our products can complete iPad, ensuring it is always charged, protected, and accessible… wherever the road may take it.
RESULTS
To ensure the team at Vitality Physiotherapy and Wellness Centre could welcome visitors with a simple and elegant experience from the moment they entered the building, to equipping staff with a tool to hold, charge, and protect their iPad as they moved throughout the facility, IPORT LUXE was used to keep business running seamlessly, while not disrupting the design of the facility. The Jane software app was run on the iPad for check-in, charting, scheduling, and billing. And with the ability to lock the iPad Case to the BaseStation for added security, or the option to take it throughout the facility for operational needs and client appointments, IPORT LUXE allows staff to do all the things within the app without disruption.
“We are super happy with the IPORT LUXE system. We really like that it is made with premium materials that you can feel when you hold the device and that it is so aesthetically pleasing. It also eliminates the stress of charging the iPad from the equation, so we never have to worry if the iPad is charged or have people fighting over finding a charger.”
Mina Rezk Owner and Clinic Director, Vitality Physiotherapy and Wellness Centre.
