How do we treat your dance injury?

Dance treatment at our clinic is performed in line with the best standards and practices of therapy. We carry out a series of tests and evaluations at our clinic before creating a special treatment plan to help a patient recover quickly. During your appointment at our clinic, your physiotherapist will recommend a treatment plan and identify what led to the dance injury and pain. We focus on giving you the comfort you deserve by eliminating pains and healing your injury through sessions designated for you.

We understand the importance of day-to-day practice and performance as a dancer, and that’s why every treatment given is added with some dance-specific exercise to make you physically and mentally fit and get you back on stage as soon as possible. At Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic, our ultimate goal is to see you comfortable and back to your regular routine or activities by helping you perform at a pain-free and optimal level.

Dancer Screening

Screening is vital for dancers before any pain or injury happens. It helps dancers prevent injuries, set goals, be effective and efficient during training, and prolong their dancing career. At Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic, our sports physiotherapist will perform a complete biomechanical and movement assessment of a dancer’s health and physical wellbeing before a dancing session using survey and physical teats. Each dancer’s assessment will help the dance instructor know the capabilities of every of their dancers and how to enhance their strengths and weaknesses.

We will be pleased to perform a dance screening test for your dancers at our clinic or your studio.

Pointe Readiness Assessments

Pointe Readiness assessment helps to assess a dancer’s ability to initiate pointe training. Our orthopedist and sports physiotherapist will be using strength, balance, and biomechanical testing to perform this assessment.

On-site Treatment

Having one of our therapists backstage or in the studio during training or any event helps reduce casualty and offer immediate treatment for an injury. This helps protect dancers’ health and fastens the recovery process.
