Improving lives through movement
The Research and Movement Laboratory (RML) Is a state-of-the-art resource housed in Mary Bridge Children’s Therapy Services – Puyallup. Our multidisciplinary team of engineers and clinicians use research and technology to help identify, diagnose, and treat individuals with movement challenges. The RML sees patients with a wide variety of concerns, including neurological, muscular, and orthopedic disorders, as well as sports related injuries, performance enhancement, and return-to-play.
Developing a patient-centered treatment plan
Using the latest technology, the RML team collects data from joint motion, ground reaction forces, muscle activity, metabolic consumption, and plantar pressure. These data are synthesized to create a detailed, patient-specific picture of how the movements are being performed. The RML team analyzes and interprets the data to help design the most effective treatment approach tailored to the patient’s needs.

Join the Markerless Movement Study
We are studying how typically developing children and young adults move their bodies during everyday activities, to compare to others with movement disorders, like cerebral palsy.
If you are between 3-25 years old, you can help our understanding and treatment of movement disorders.
