PRI Treatment Proves Wonders for the Competitive Athlete

Have you been trying to strengthen certain muscles to no avail?  Have you ever wondered why your right leg might be stronger than your left? Why your left ribs stick out and are higher than your right?  The answer is the science of asymmetry, affectionately known as PRI™ or The Postural Restoration Institute.   Check out this article written by Lori Strobl, Bon Secours Physical Therapist at the St. Francis Watkins Center that discusses this treatment approach that is able to recognize how the science of asymmetry and the science of respiration affect movement and posture.

Lori has successfully worked with many athletes in the Richmond area to get them back into their most competitive state by utilizing this treatment method.

 “One year ago today I met Lori Strobl, a physical therapist specializing in PRI who helped me get my body on track so I could continue to do what I love the most – triathlons! I am on to my third Ironman in one year!  So happy I met you Lori and you have helped me along the way to become the athlete I am today! Anyone ever need a GREAT Physical Therapist – check her out.  Thank you!”  – Lindsay Wohlford

“I can second this. Best PT in Richmond hands down. I have been working with Lori for almost three years. When I first saw her, I hadn’t been able to run in 12 months. Since working with her, I have done four ironmans, two marathons, countless other tri’s and road races and she has gotten me healthy enough to run nearly 2,000 miles a year. She is the BEST – no contest.” – Danny Royce
