The Motor Control Lab, a part of the Physical Therapy Department in Ohio University's College of Health Sciences and Professions, is dedicated to advancing research related to upper and lower extremity orthopedic topics.
Established in 2020, the lab aims to determine effective tests and exercises that reduce discomfort in those with orthopedic pain.
Because orthopedic pain is extremely common, especially as we age, it's imperative that we continue to refine our understanding of the best ways to treat and reduce its impacts on daily life.
