ECRC-PT has been providing community-based, out-patient physical therapy for residents of all ages for over 41+ years. Located in New London and Windham counties, we have three locations throughout Connecticut. We are recognized for our comprehensive approach to restoring our patient-clients health and assisting in the restoration of movement impairments while maximizing functional mobility and reducing pain. By doing this, we have restored hope to thousands of residents in our long history of providing physical rehabilitation. We focus on providing a comprehensive physical assessment of the neuro-musculo-skeletal system, apply hands-on care, and guide our clients through education and effective clinic-based and home exercise and movement programs.
At ECRC, we provide ethical and professional physical therapy care that follows the guidelines of the APTA (American Physical Therapy Association), emphasizing the right of all patient-clients to choose where they receive care based on the professional level of care, the effectiveness of care delivered and the convenience to the client from either home or work.
We are proud of the many years of respect received by both our patients, physicians and medical caregivers, as well as insurance companies and employers who have chosen to receive their care from ECRC-PT.
