Nicole Erins, PT, DPT, CSCS

Nicole graduated from University of Central Florida with a B.S. in Health Sciences and earned her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from New York University. She is a certified strength and conditioning specialist and is a graduate of BASI's Pilates. Additionally, she has taken advanced coursework to specialize in treating TMJ and voice issues.

Nicole was introduced to dance and theater at an early age and was a competitive Irish dancer for 14 years. Like many other PT/performers, she had injuries that required physical therapy which led her to pursue a career in performing arts medicine. Nicole has worked with over 25 Broadway, off-Broadway and nationally touring productions. She has had extensive clinical experience treating a variety of performers including dancers, vocalists, musicians, and people who like to move. Nicole strives to help all of her patients find balance for healthy, sustainable performance whether that's dancing, singing, running, playing sports, or the busy life of a New Yorker.

Outside of the clinic, she enjoys going to Pilates and yoga classes, hiking with her dogs Twyla and Chloe, seeing Broadway shows, and traveling to new places with her husband.
