Is your daily posture the silent cause of your back pain? ⚡

At ECRC Physical Therapy, we see many patients whose lower back pain stems from simple daily habits. In this video, Carl Mailhot, PT, demonstrates three foundational adjustments to help you manage pain:

Ergonomic Correction: Aligning eye level and leg position to eliminate sitting-related strain.

Mechanical Decompression: Using the "flat back" position to reduce muscle guarding and tightness.

Postural Awareness: Bringing work surfaces higher to prevent repetitive bending at the waist.

If these self-correction tips aren't providing the relief you need, a personalized physical therapy program is the next step.

Contact us today at our Lisbon or Killingly locations to start your recovery!

Lifting the pressure off your shoulders. 👐✨

Cupping is a game-changer for anyone dealing with shoulder stiffness or scar tissue. By creating space between the layers of muscle and fascia, we can help you regain your reach and reduce pain faster.

The Benefits:
✅ Increased circulation
✅ Faster muscle recovery
✅ Improved range of motion
✅ Deep tissue release

Have you seen this unique equipment in our clinic? Core Stix is one of the most versatile tools we use to help our patients get stronger, no matter their starting point.

Unlike traditional weight machines that lock you into one movement, Core Stix uses high-grade resistance rods to challenge your body in a standing, functional position. This means we can work on:
✅ Core Stability: Engaging your midsection during every move.
✅ Total Body Strength: Targeting legs, back, and arms simultaneously.
✅ Balance & Coordination: Training your body to move safely in the real world.

As you can see in these photos, our therapists can adjust the resistance and angle to treat almost any muscle group—from shoulder rehab to post-surgical knee strengthening.

Ready to see what Core Stix can do for you? Our team will build a personalized program using advanced tools like these to help you reach your goals.

Ever wonder why athletes (and our patients!) wear tape on their knees? It’s called Kinesio Taping, and it’s a game-changer for recovery! Unlike traditional athletic tape that restricts movement, Kinesio Tape is designed to move with you.

By gently lifting the skin, it helps:
✅ Decrease pain and swelling
✅ Improve circulation to injured tissues
✅ Provide "functional stability" to joints like the knee

Whether you’re dealing with runner’s knee, a shoulder strain, or post-surgical swelling, our therapists use taping techniques to keep you moving while you heal.

Ready to get back in the game? Contact ECRC Physical Therapy to see how Kinesio Taping can be part of your personalized recovery plan!

💪 Your Shoulder Deserves Precision. At ECRC Physical Therapy, we don’t guess when it comes to your recovery. For complex injuries like rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, or post-surgical rehab, it takes more than just resistance bands. Expert guidance is needed.

We invest in our therapists to be highly trained, in utilizing specialized equipment (like the machine pictured here!) that provides consistent, controlled resistance through your shoulder’s full range of motion.

What does this mean for you?
✅ Better Results: Targeted strengthening of critical stabilizer muscles.
✅ Safe Progression: Resistance is precise, preventing re-injury.
✅ Full Mobility: Regain the ability to lift, reach, and live pain-free!

If shoulder pain and/or mobility is limiting your life, don't wait.

Ready to leave the pain behind and reclaim your strength?
