WHAT IS POSTURAL VISION AND INTEGRATIVE POSTURAL THERAPY?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Postural Vision is an interdisciplinary approach to management of movement dysfunction that includes neuro-optometry and PRI-based physical therapy.\u00a0 By combining these two fields of study with dentistry, a true and unique program of Integrative Postural Therapy <\/strong>results.<\/p>\n

PRI stands for the Postural Restoration Institute\u00ae located in Lincoln, Nebraska.\u00a0 PRI created a fantastic vision program through the genius work of a Physical Therapist named Ron Hruska and an Optometrist named Dr. Heidi Wise OD, FCOVD.\u00a0 Dr. Wise provided the optometric expertise from her 20 years of experience in Neuro-optometry and vision development.\u00a0 When her experience was coupled with the visionary work of Ron Hruska, the result was a successful treatment regimen the likes of which had not been seen before:\u00a0 it included combining practices of Physical Therapy, Optometry and Dentistry!<\/p>\n

Dr. Wise worked with Ron Hruska for many years in Lincoln and they began a teaching program to educate other professionals in this exciting field of Optometric and Physical Therapy interdisciplinary integration.<\/p>\n

After moving to Savannah, Georgia to be closer to family, Dr. Wise naturally teamed up with Dr. Elizabeth Caughey DDS (caugheydds.com<\/em>) and Mike Cantrell MPT, PRC (PRIperformance.com<\/em>) at their facility called the Atlanta Center for Integrative Postural Therapy\u00ae. \u00a0<\/strong>This union allows a seamless mechanism of treatment for patients with pain and clients who wish to improve athletic performance.\u00a0 Dr. Caughey and Mike Cantrell have both been mentored by Ron Hruska. \u00a0Mike is Postural Restoration Certified and actually taught PRI classes for Ron for almost two decades.\u00a0 This seasoned team of clinicians is now ready to provide for you what has been years in the making:\u00a0 Dentistry, Optometry and Physical Therapy under one roof, at the same time!<\/p>\n
