Dance Physiotherapy Gold Coast
What is Dance Physiotherapy?
Dance physiotherapy is a specialised area of physiotherapy that involves healthcare and rehabilitation for dancers. Artistic Sports Physiotherapists have their own personal experience with dancing as well as having worked alongside professional dancers.
There are many aspects of a dancer’s life that a dance physiotherapist can support. These include injury prevention, assessment and treatment of dance-related injuries. They can develop personalised exercise programs that are specific to your dance training demands and performance goals. The Artistic Sports physiotherapists are also trained in unique tests that help identify strengths and weaknesses of your strength, flexibility, and technique.
Why should you see a dance physiotherapist at Artistic Sports Physiotherapy?
- We have worked with professional dancers for many years! We know it’s more about keeping you onstage, not offstage. We achieve this by a strategic load management plan according to your dance demands.
- We will work closely with you to understand your unique performance goals.
- We often collaborate with dance instructors and other healthcare professionals to ensure a holistic approach to your overall wellness as a dancer.
- We have a trained eye to spot hypermobility and its symptoms.
- We have a strong network of doctors, sports specialists, orthopaedic specialists, dietitians and psychologists throughout Southeast Queensland. You can be referred to one of the team if needed.
- We speak your lingo! Does your hip click during a développé à la seconde in ballet? Or did you land awkwardly from a grande jeté in tech class? Do you have a comp coming up and have to perform a lyrical, contemporary, hip hop and jazz number!?
Whether it’s addressing a specific injury or enhancing performance, the artistic sports team play a vital role in keeping dancers happy and healthy!
