Matthieu Laurent, PT, DPT

Physical Therapist, Osteopath, Running coach

Matthieu Laurent is a provider and founder of Change Physical Therapy.

Dr. Laurent attended both Physical Therapy and Osteopathic Medicine schools in Lyon (France), graduated in 2011 and 2016, then moved to the United States and received his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree with distinction from Arcadia University, PA in 2019. Overall, he has been practicing in outpatient settings for 13 years.

Dr. Laurent has a passion for using his knowledge of the human body, manual skills and exercise, to help patients reach their goals without medication and surgery. Since graduating, he has never stopped seeking up-to-date medical knowledge and skills, pursuing competence through training and continuing education. Besides having extensive experience in treating a diverse patient population in outpatient clinics, he has become a specialist in treating cases involving pathology of the spine. His personal experience as a runner has also driven him to complete expert training at The Running Clinic in Quebec and attend Harvard Medical School running conferences, giving him a unique perspective and understanding of how to provide the best care for runners.

 

In his spare time, Dr. Laurent enjoys staying active. He is an avid long-distance road and trail runner and has completed many marathons and ultramarathons, including the 275K self-supported Grand to Grand Ultra 2022 and Grindstone 100K by UTMB 2023. He supports individuals’ pursuits to be active by participating as a medical volunteer for events such as the UTMB, the Mont Blanc Marathon and the NYC Marathon. He is also an RRCA (Road Runners Club of America) certified running coach. As a proponent of consistent self-care, he supports his local organic farmers and encourages everyone to look at diet and sleep as other cornerstones of a healthy life.
