Comments following the Interdisciplinary Integration Course

“I just wanted to send a thank you for the dedication and “vision” that your organization represents.  It is rare to encounter a group of therapists as knowledgeable and as dedicated as the PRI group is and every time I have attended a course I have left feeling “inadequate” which motivates me to become a better therapist… this is clearly a good thing, not a negative.
I also want to say that the last 40 minutes on the last day was the most engaging of all of the teaching and dialogue and it is his passion and perspective that pulls it all together. 
I didn’t have the chance to put this on the feedback form as I was ready to hit the road for the late drive home, but I hope in the future Ron will consider scheduling an hour each day of Interdisciplinary Integration for his perspective and “PRI considerations” to ‘bring it home’ as he did with the rest integration day.  Thanks again for vast time and effort that represents PRI.” - Matt Erb, PT

“To begin, thanks for hosting these amazing courses.  It really is truly inspiring to hear these speakers, and between you and me it is also very inspiring to hear Ron’s take on these subjects.  I have felt from my first week as a PT that our field was missing so many things when I saw a colleague having an older woman toe tap cones to “improve” balance (all she learned was how to tap a cone, not how to dynamically and functionally move through gravity).” - Josh Olinick, DPT

“I would highly recommend this course to all physical therapists (pediatric, neuro, orthopedic, chronic pain, sports and other relevant health practitioners) because gaining an appreciation for the value and the incredible need for podiatrists, neuro-optometrists, dentists, sleep specialists and physical therapists to work together will improve patient care and change practice paradigms.” - Kyndy Boyle, MSPT, OCS, PRC

Amazing Week!

We just wrapped up a fantastic week here at PRI!  On behalf of myself, Janie, and Ron we would like to thank everyone involved in the Interdisciplinary Integration course.  The course turned out to be a huge success and was full of valuable, clinical information that I’m hopeful those in attendance can use in their own practice.  We are already discussing next year so stay tuned!

Course Schedule Update

Thanks to all who attended our Myokinematic Restoration course in Portland, ME this past month. The course was a big success judging by the post evaluations! Due to high request, we will be offering Postural Respiration on November 13-14 rather than the previously planned Impingement & Instability course. Therefore, if you were planning to attend Impingement & Instability you might consider the upcoming course in Lebanon, NH. Ron is scheduled to teach this course in Lebanon on April 24-25 and will not be returning to the Northeast again until 2011. Mention this blog post to receive the early registration rate.
