Magic flows from the fingers of Erin Plott, but she’s not a genie or a concert pianist. She’s the licensed massage therapist who helms Massage Mechanics of South Carolina. Erin funnels more than a decade of experience into strokes designed to ease aches and unearth vestigial dragon wings. She developed her skills at Southeastern Institute, mastering modalities such as sports massage and trigger-point therapy before graduating near the top of her class. Her relaxing Swedish massages teem with long, gliding strokes and percussive taps that enhance lymphatic flow to promote comfort and healing. Ideal for clients with chronic pain, deep-tissue strokes reach deep into the muscle tissue to melt knots and boost circulation. In addition to taming tension at her studio, Erin brings her talents to clients’ homes upon request.
