Did you know we do cupping? Does your scar feel tight or like the skin doesn’t move easily? Scar mobility may be part of the picture.

Once a scar is fully healed, a physical therapist may use gentle cupping to lift and move the skin around it. That gentle pull can help us work on how the scar and surrounding tissue move, especially when tightness makes everyday movements uncomfortable.

Cupping is one option in scar care. We’ll assess the area, choose the right amount of pressure, and pair it with movement and other hands-on techniques when appropriate.

Have a scar that feels restricted? Ask your GFPT physical therapist about it at your next visit.

The PT wizard is back and helping with stress! When stress builds, breathing can become quick and shallow. Diaphragmatic breathing, sometimes called belly breathing, encourages a slower rhythm that can help your body relax. Follow Jaison to learn how to practice at home.

Pain in your hand? Come see Tom and try these exercises!

A hand tendon glide is a gentle exercise that moves your fingers through a series of positions to help the tendons glide smoothly. These movements can reduce stiffness, improve mobility, and make everyday tasks easier.

Why is balance so important? Balance is more than standing still—it helps us walk confidently over uneven terrain, step safely on and off curbs, and stay steady wherever life takes us. Every step toward better balance is a step toward greater strength, independence, and confidence.

Upper back pain? Here are some thoracic exercises to help!

Why is thoracic extension so important? 🤔

Your thoracic spine—the middle and upper portion of your back—needs to extend to help you:

✅ Reach overhead comfortably
✅ Maintain good posture
✅ Rotate efficiently
✅ Breathe more fully
✅ Reduce unnecessary strain on your neck, shoulders, and lower back

When this area becomes stiff, your body often compensates by creating extra movement elsewhere. Whether you’re lifting weights, playing a sport, working at a desk, or simply reaching into a cabinet, adequate thoracic extension helps you move more efficiently and comfortably.

Feeling stiff through your upper back? A physical therapist can determine whether thoracic mobility is contributing to your pain or limiting your movement.
