Due to the intense physics demand of their craft, dancers are at risk of a number of injuries. The most common injuries we see in the clinic are muscle strains, ligament sprains, stress fractures, and overuse injuries to name a few.
Physiotherapy treatment can help dancers prevent and recover from these types of injuries by improving strength, flexibility and global fitness, as well as identifying any musculoskeletal imbalances or areas of weakness that may be contributing to risk of injury.
Additionally, physiotherapists who focus on dancers specifically, can assist in providing guidance on proper dance technique as another means of reducing further injury.
