We Help Dancers and Gymnasts Recover From Injury While MINIMIZING Time Away From Training or Competition
In the past, you may have had movement professionals tell you to simply “stop dancing” or “take time off” to heal from an injury. At On Track Physiotherapy we believe that, with the right treatment program, you can move forward with your skills and artistry WITHOUT letting an injury halt your training.
For the gymnast, dancer, or any artistic performer, I specialize in designing individualized programs that are tailored to your needs, body type, and skill level.
We do not attempt to push past the pain; rather, we instruct you to perform exercises and techniques with proper form, education, and pain-free movement.
Dancers, are you dealing with……
Toe pain or ankle instability with turns?
Knee pain with petite allegro?
Hip pain that prevents you from achieving your maximum extension height?
Low back pain with backbends and acrobatic work?
Gymnasts, are you struggling with……
Wrist pain that makes floor skills difficult?
Knee instability when tumbling?
Low back pain with tricks on the beam?
Ankle pain that keeps you from your highest layout?
Resting is NOT the only answer!
The goal is to help you find the balance of continuing to practice your techniques while properly rehabilitating your injury.
Our approach is to go beyond treating pain symptoms to find the source of the problem and address your technique by focusing on correct movement patterns to get you back to pain-free training FASTER.
As a former dancer, I understand the frustration that comes with injuries and how they can interrupt your training and performance. Prevention of overuse injuries requires proper education and movement control prior to repetition and practice.
