Welcome to AMR Trainings, a podcast about training and racing and endurance sports. I'm Demi McDowell, co-founder of another mother runner.

Today, we're continuing the body series where we tackle a variety of physical issues and injuries common to runners.

Previously, we've hit on the feet in the lower back and we're going to go today to a pain point for many of us, the knees.

Helping us with that is Dr. Roslyn Moore, the owner of Reconetic Physical Therapy and Wellness.

Dr. Moore is a physical therapist in Baltimore, Maryland, who has over 20 years of experience in athletic training and physical therapy.

She specializes in women getting over physical speed bumps, getting them moving, and of course helping out with knee pain.

Welcome, Dr. Moore. How are you?

I'm doing well. Thank you for having me.

Sure. Tell us about yourself before we get rolling. I did a short clinical bio, but tell us where you give us a little bit of your background.

We just started, I'd say physical therapy was not probably the first thing I thought of, it was actually physical education.

Also, I went into physical education and athletic training in undergrad and then worked in that field for a little while, and then it was real buzz of corporate fitness and health and fitness things I decided that that's what I wanted to do next, so I'm a master's in an exercise science and thought I was going to have this amazing corporate fitness job working for some amazing company and then bottom kind of dropped out of that.

At the time, I graduated, but I did end up working for the catalog corporation in Battle Creek, so that was actually a pretty good job. It just, you know, wasn't fully the corporate corporate fitness that I wanted, and then since I was already an athletic trainer, I went ahead and just took a position with a high school and did that for a while and then decided to go back to school for physical therapy from there.

And that's, you know, kind of what I've done for, oh, yeah, it's like 21 years now.

Yeah, super, super knowledgeable about the athletic body. It sounds like in different ways, right, not just coming at it from a totally physical therapy standpoint.

Exactly.

And rekinetic physical therapy, you started that recently because of during the pandemic, did you start that?

Right. So I thought about doing it in 2019 and kind of was, you know, formulating what I wanted to do and just kind of thinking about it, you know, want to work for myself and not have to, you know, see the four and five patients in an hour and not get my lawn to get paperwork and do paperwork and, you know, just not being your own person, not being able to see who you want to see and having, you know, some other people telling you what to do.

So I thought about doing it and then beginning of January 2020, I did a vision board and I was already and I thought about my name and I knew I wanted to have something to do with my name, but not really my name.

So my name was Rosalind K. Moore, so that are in the K, I was thinking of doing something with and then just came upon that word rekinetic and it just seemed like a great word and so that's where I came from.
