Erin Clark, LMT of Kinetic Sports Therapy.
Another modality added to the CryoUSA Athletic Recovery Center is Kinetic Sports Therapy. I had the honor of working with owner Erin Clark, LMT. She is a Crossfit level 1 instructor and trains out of Crossfit 214 in Dallas. Erin received her degree in Social Work but knew her passion was in fitness and wellness so in turn she decided to become a Licensed Massage Therapist. As a former state ranked tennis player, Erin knows a thing or two about working to keep athletes moving and injury free and she is here to help you improve in your sport with her unique therapy techniques. I say unique because I have seen many LMT and in one 30min session with Erin I felt better than in any previous 60 min session I’ve received.
making Kyle cry!!!
Erin's technique is a mixture of deep tissue, trigger point, Active Release Technique (A.R.T) and sports massage. She also does Graston but that was not in the plans for this visit.
While most massages are passive with the majority of the work being done TO you, Erin practices the unconventional approach of using body movements you specifically utilize during training, competition or work lifestyle (desk jockey's). This is why Erin sees a wide variety of clients, from runners, cyclists, and triathletes, to stay at home mom's, busy fathers and of course...crossfitters! She is able to help each individual regain mobility in the areas they need most so they can perform at their best.
Before we started, Erin asked a series of questions so she could customize her session to what I specifically needed. Just because you experience hip pain, it doesn't necessarily mean that is the source of your problem. Erin may need to work on your shoulder with some specific movements and VOILA!!! your hip impingement is gone! For my first go-around I discussed my calves and my hip/glutes as my problem areas. Since we had an abbreviated session, she worked my hips and IT bands and hit some major "crunchy" areas.
After the session, I swear I grew 2 inches. I felt SO much relief in my hips! I can't wait to go back and get a full session with Erin to break up whatever is going on in my calves and finish off what she started in my hips.
Erin’s primary goal is to getting you back on the road to recovery and keep you moving symptom free. If you're dealing with nagging injuries or simply need a good non-passive massage give Kinetic Sports Therapy a call to make your appointment. Pricing is available here.
