Brian Patullo
I received both my undergraduate and graduate degrees at Seton Hall University. My Bachelor’s degree is in Biology, and I have my doctorate in physical therapy. I have been a practicing doctor of physical therapy since 2008. I have taken continuing education courses on topics of vestibular rehabilitation, kinesio taping techniques, Mckenzie movement therapy, dynamic stretching techniques, as well as many others. I have found patient and family education to be the most crucial part of physical therapy. Patient’s must become their own advocate and take ownership of rehabilitating their own bodies or they often are not successful. Therefore, my profession has led me to exploring avenues of educating not just patients, but the community for the purpose of prevention. I have done many community outreach education courses on topics such as posture and ergonomics, the spine, the shoulder girdle, fall prevention, and osteoporosis. I am an adjunct professor at Seton Hall University, and perform site visits to assess doctoral students at their clinical affiliations/internships. I look forward to entering into another aspect of education working with motivated yoga instructors hoping to give people the tools to lead a more balanced life.
