Fitness

Collegiate Athletic Training student

I was an athletic training student in undergrad for 3 years before switching my major to exercise physiology. This experience has served me well throughout my years as a massage therapist. Although I didn't complete the program I was taught taping, stretching, treatments in the athletic training room, hydrotherapy, brought athletes through exercise programs to recover and prevent injury. LC's AT program is where I really learned the most about kinesiology and grasped the understanding of how the body moves in motion. I have experience with athletes before, during and after games and practices. I worked with Lynchburg College's men's and women's lacrosse, men's and women's soccer and field hockey. I also worked at Randolph Macon College with their men's soccer team. And high school level with the football.

Cardiac Rehab Exercise Physiology Internship

I worked with patients in all 4 phases of cardiac rehab at Stroobrant Heart Clinic at Centra and at the Bedford YMCA. At the YMCA, I also worked with children in the healthy U program who were struggling with childhood obesity.

Physical Therapy

PT Tech

I worked as PT tech bringing patients through treatment that the PT created. I did ultra sound, electrical stimulation and taught patients how to do their exercises properly. Since I was in massage school and also completed massage school while working here, I was able to assist the PT in her myofascial release and cranioscacral therapies. I also did one of my exercise physiology internships in a physical therapy office. I had my own cases that I was able to to take, with supervision by the PT from start to finish, to do my own case studies.
