What happens when PT meets dentistry? Better outcomes for patients. 🦷💙

Our team had the privilege of learning from Dr. Roberta Garceau, DMD, D-ABDSM, who joined us for a Doc Talk on Collaborative Care for Pain & Obstructive Sleep Apnea between PTs and DMDs.

The connection between jaw function, airway health, and musculoskeletal pain is more significant than most people realize. And when physical therapists and dental professionals work together, patients get a fuller picture of their health and more effective care.

✅ Understanding the PT-DMD connection for pain management
✅ How obstructive sleep apnea intersects with physical therapy
✅ Collaborative care strategies that improve patient outcomes

This is exactly what continued education at PTSMC looks like: bringing in expert voices from across disciplines so our clinicians can deliver the most comprehensive, evidence-based care possible.

Because the best care doesn't happen in silos.

Coffee. Oats. Dog snuggles. Headset on. 🐶☕

A day in the life of Evelyn, one of our virtual care PTs here at PTSMC, looks a little different from a traditional clinic day, but the care is exactly the same.

Here's what her day looked like:
☀️ Morning fuel (fiber, fiber, my friends 🌾)
☀️ Shoulder mobility and overhead movement work with patients
☀️ Hip strengthening with resistance bands
☀️ A midday dog walk break (non-negotiable 🐕)
☀️ Pelvic floor therapy, including graded exposure with vaginal trainers and pressure management techniques

Virtual PT makes it possible to deliver real, evidence-based care from wherever you are. Whether you're dealing with pelvic pain, recovering from an injury, or working on strength and mobility, Evelyn is meeting patients where they are.

Your wrists are trying to tell you something. 🖥️

June is National Employee Wellness Month, and this one's for everyone spending their days at a keyboard. Small ergonomic adjustments can make a big difference in how your body feels by the end of the day.

Try these three quick fixes at your desk:
✅ Bring your elbows in closer to your body
✅ Move your keyboard up so it sits flat on the desk (no propping it up!)
✅ Keep your elbows at a 90-degree angle to maintain a neutral wrist position

These simple changes help reduce strain and stiffness before they turn into something bigger. Your body will thank you.

Is your standing desk actually set up right? 🖥️

Most people are standing at their desks but still straining their necks and shoulders because of poor setup. Here's what to fix:

✅ Raise the desk so your wrists are flat and elbows hit 90 degrees
✅ Ditch the laptop screen and use a monitor instead
✅ Prop your monitor up (a ream of paper works great!) so it sits at eyebrow level
✅ Head neutral, shoulders relaxed

Small adjustments, big difference in how you feel by 5pm.

June is National Employee Wellness Month, and your workspace setup is the perfect place to start.

Save this for your next setup check! 💪

This is what a day in the life looks like at PTSMC. Variety, challenge, and purpose, all before 5 PM.

PTs from PTSMC Glastonbury & Manchester were out at the Spring Street Mile cheering you on AND making sure your body felt its best before and after the race! 🏃

Our physical therapists provided on-site complimentary stretching and used the Hyperice massage guns to help runners warm up properly and recover strong. Because race day prep goes beyond your playlist and your gear.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or this was your first mile, taking care of your body is what keeps you coming back to the starting line. That's the PT for Life philosophy in action.

Big thanks to everyone who stopped by. See you at the next one! 🎉
