Robert Lardner Physical Therapy draws its treatment philosophy from several leading schools of physical therapy and manual medicine, utilizing hands-on facilitation and inhibition techniques and incorporating developmental corrective exercises to increase body awareness, coordination and control. The goal is improved posture, muscle balance and coordination, which are crucial in protecting the body from further injury and maximizing overall function.  

The body’s musculoskeletal system is a resilient, balanced and complex functioning unit which experiences a multitude of stresses and challenges throughout your life. With overuse or injury, the body adjusts and compensates for altered or impaired function. But over time, the body’s ability to compensate adequately may be exhausted, or the injury suffered may not allow it to compensate sufficiently to be pain-free and maintain normal function. Your aches, pains and injuries are warning signs of dysfunction that can lead to more serious problems if no remedy is found.  

A personalized treatment plan at Robert Lardner Physical Therapy begins with a thorough assessment  to determine how and why you are experiencing pain and have lost normal function. This assessment includes postural observation, tissue palpation and movement and strength assessment. Once  the dysfunctional chains within the system have been identified, a treatment and rehabilitation plan is formulated..
