Here she is a couple months later after working on a “glute program”. Look at her arm swing! Look at her ability to achieve heel strike! She still has some work ahead of her but this is a major improvement!

Gregory Parfianowicz recently returned from his trip to Poland with Ron Hruska and Jason Masek. We asked him to tell us a little bit about why they were there and what they did while they were there. Read all about their trip here!

It’s Christmas in September! PRC Applications have arrived and our Review Committee is always anxious to get their hands on them. Postural Restoration case studies, article reviews, in-service handouts, etc…What more could a PRI therapist ask for?
Applicants will be notified of Reviewer feedback and recommendations by October 15th. Thank you for the many hours you have obviously spent preparing.
Each week we will introduce a technique found on one of our two educational CD’s. We will unveil the reasoning, purpose, application, and progression of each technique to provide guidance in your PRI decision making!
Every non-manual technique you receive in PRI course material originated from a patient. Each technique has a story, a purpose, and a reason for existence. What works for some patients may not work for others and thus another activity is born. Some ask, “how did the concept of PRI start”; through patient care, that’s how. Over the past 27 years, the creation and evolution of PRI has taken place. Each patient has taught a lesson, sent a message and left an imprint that encompasses what PRI is.
PRI has been developing patient handouts used for education of both clinicians and patients for decades. Although there are an abundance of activities, there is a reason for each and every one. Please check back weekly to discover our featured Technique of the Week!
We often find articles published in the Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies to be of interest. Last month was no exception. Consider reading the following from the July 2009 issue.
Look at all the asymmetry going on in this x-ray! Notice the size difference in the obturator foramens, the asymmetry in the pelvic floor opening and the difference between the left and right head of the femurs. This is a classic example of a Left AIC pelvis!

Hi Bobbie/Ron,
I would like to thank you both for the opportunity to see Ron treat my patient in Lincoln yesterday via Skype. Here I was in NC, and it was almost as good as being there ! I learned a lot and think this is an excellent tool for any clinician who wants to consult from wherever they are. The patient could also be in your clinic anywhere on this planet and Ron in Lincoln can see the patient from there. I hope everyone takes advantage of this great learning opportunity, I certainly plan to continue to do so. – Sangini
