Over the last few weeks, I've written a few articles that discuss, among other things, how we're incorporating PRI into our performance training programs that I thought may be of interest to you. You can check them out at the links below. Enjoy!

We are excited to announce and congratulate the Postural Restoration Certified (PRC) Class of 2013! PRS is the result of completing multiple advanced PRI courses, demonstrating a thorough understanding of the science through completion of the PRC application, and successfully participating in practical and analytical testing. Twenty-six PT's and PTA's earned the designation of Postural Restoration Certified (PRC) under the direction of Ron Hruska, James Anderson, Mike Cantrell, and Jennifer Gloystein.

The Postural Restoration Institute established a certification process in 2004 as a way to recognize and identify those individuals with advanced training, extraordinary interest and devotion to the science of postural adaptations, asymmetrical patterns and the influence of polyarticular chains of muscles on the human body as defined by the Postural Restoration Institute. Certification is available to physical therapists, physical therapist assistants and occupational therapists who have attended PRI courses, demonstrated a thorough understanding of the science through completion of the PRC application, and successfully participate in both clinical and analytical testing. To date 123 Therapists have earned the designation of Postural Restoration Certified (PRC).

For those traveling to Lincoln this week for the annual Advanced Integration course, I would recommend packing layers of clothing as the forecast looks like a cold one!
