Renaissance Physical Therapy & Wellness is a certified Postural Restoration Center with expertise in utilizing the principles of the Postural Restoration Institute (PRI), which appreciate our natural human asymmetry and the issues that affect our biomechanical and neurologic state around those asymmetries. These asymmetries often cause us to establish certain imbalanced and patterned ways of moving, breathing and stabilizing ourselves unconsciously. These patterns are often the result of why we may prefer to sit, stand or walk a certain way. They drive what determines our “posture” and they can become more dominant in controlling our state as we go through life and have other injuries, issues, surgeries, and traumas. They can explain why we may notice asymmetries in our hips, shoulders or even face when we look in the mirror. Or why we may have a persistent issue in one area of our body that we can’t seem to stop straining, tensing or overusing.

A proper PRI program offers solutions for why those patterns have emerged
and also how we can address the persistent issue at its root cause.
Being able to neutralize these unconscious tendencies will help not only
 improve biomechanical efficiency in our joints or spine to increase capacity
and functional tolerance to activities, but can also help regulate our nervous
system by decreasing the body’s “fight or flight” response. A PRI program
involves the utilization of specific manual and non-manual techniques with
neuro-sensory integration, and multidisciplinary collaboration of services
when needed. When utilized effectively, a PRI program can successfully
address not only musculoskeletal injuries but also complex multi-system
conditions.

As a patient struggling with his own issues, Frank found PRI and it dramatically
changed his life. He has since dedicated himself to being the best PRI practitioner
he can be, continuing to learn and collaborate with other professionals in order
to provide an optimal and efficient patient experience for people with complex
issues like his own.
