About Lauren Wedam
I earned my Masters of Education from Harvard University in 2001 and my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from UVM in 2010. I am particularly interested in functional treatment approaches and have completed extensive continuing education in Functional Manual Therapy with the Institute of Physical Art, manual therapy for the spine and extremities with Maitland Australia and Mulligan Concept (New Zealand), and neurology and orthopedics for the medically complex patient with Carole B. Lewis. I recently earned Level 1 certification in 3-D scoliosis management with the Schroth Barcelona Institute in 2018. I am a Certified Exercise Expert for Aging Adults with the Academy of Geriatric Physical Therapy and hold my board certification as a clinical specialist in Geriatric Physical Therapy.
My clinical experience includes treating acute injuries, chronic pain, post-operative rehabilitation, neurodegenerative disorders, acquired and idiopathic scoliosis, and sports-related injuries across the lifespan. I am currently training in Functional Nutrition for chronic conditions to develop education and wellness coaching to enhance the quality of patient care and overall quality of life.
