Physical therapy for dancers in Portland, Maine

Care for every kind of dancer

Whether you train in a studio or spend your weekends on the social dance floor, from ballet and contemporary to swing, salsa, and contra, dancing asks for range, balance, and strength all at once. Pain tends to show up when one of those falls behind the others, or when your hours on the floor climb faster than your body can adapt.

What your treatment focuses on

A plan built around how you dance. Treatment starts with your style, how often you dance, and what your body has to do, whether that’s holding a position in class or spinning through a long night on the floor.

Pain relief that respects your range. Hands-on treatment eases pain without asking you to give up the flexibility you’ve worked for.

Strength and balance where you need them. Your exercise program builds control in the positions and movements you actually dance, so your hips, feet, and ankles can handle more.
