New Faces - Pam Gardin, Massage Therapy
Athlete's Arena welcomes Pam Gardin as our newest massage therapist! Pam is a 1996 graduate of the College of Charleston and 2006 graduate of the Virginia School of Massage. Before beginning a career in massage therapy, Pam spent 8 years working as a certified athletic trainer in high schools in Charlotte, NC and Lynchburg, VA.  While working as an athletic trainer, she used massage as a modality.  It was after seeing the positive benefits of using massage with athletes that she decided to return to school to focus on massage therapy. Since becoming certified in massage and bodywork, Pam has worked as a massage therapist in a fitness and wellness setting.  She also provides massage therapy services for spring sports at University of South Carolina.  Pam is available for appointments by request on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
