Our Story
Robert Malone, owner and Physical Therapist here at Lystra, graduated from the University of Alabama in Birmingham and has been working as a Physical Therapist for 15 years. Prior to his therapy career, he spent eight years as an Army Nurse and graduated from the University of North Alabama. You could say he has a very particular set of skills, skills he acquired over a very long career. Skills that make him a nightmare for pain. (Yes, I’m are quoting Liam Neeson from Taken...)
He opened his clinic with a very specific goal in mind, to treat like no other! With a heavy focus on manual, one-to-one physical therapy, he tackles issues that have otherwise remained as nagging, unresolved pain. The only exercise machine you’ll find in our clinic is a treadmill that really is just collecting dust. Otherwise, Robert or our Physical Therapist Assistant will treat you in a hands-0n fashion for your entire appointment. We believe the patient can complete their exercise routines at home. He has rave reviews from his patients, many of who return to him over and over for other cases.
Lystra Physical Therapy and Wellness was opened in August of 2015 and Robert worked tirelessly for two years on his own to get the clinic up and running. Since then, he has hired Joshlyne Villano (me, the author of this post!) and we are both working hard to bring a new type of therapy to our patients.
