Physiotherapy for Dance, Theatre and Acrobatics

The hours of practice, rehearsals, raked stages, abnormal positions sustained for an extraordinary length of time, it is amazing that the body can withstand the stresses of performing at all!

As elite athletes, dance, theatre and acrobatic performers present a whole realm of unique problems and injuries which require a comprehensive understanding of the stresses you endure and, most commonly, confident hands on treatment. We help you plan your functional treatment program, emphasising your individual preventative maintenance needs.

We have the experience and knowledge to treat your injury and understand the importance of getting you back on stage, fast, making every effort to see you quickly, usually the day you book. This is made easier with the number of skilled therapists we have and our 7 day opening times.

Our deep tissue therapists are experienced in treating performers' injuries and regularly work with stage artists for maintenance of body health or in combination with your Physio.

We have provided physiotherapy for Dance, Theatre and Acrobatics for 14 years, and have also cared for the student and amateur artist. We have been the official provider of sports physiotherapy and/or deep tissue massage for the below shows and artists (and many, many more):

  • Riverdance
  • Les Miserables
  • My Fair Lady
  • Fuerzabruta
  • Oz Circus
  • Miss Saigon
  • Rambert Dance Company
  • Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
  • Heathcliff
  • Many physical theatre entertainers working with the Edinburgh Festival
  • Telford College Dance School
  • ...& George Clooney Production 'The Jacket'

Our reputation for physical theatre therapy and our strong emphasis on manual therapy has been recognised by Dance UK.

How much will this cost?

Being performers, you usually know your body and can feel what you need. Depending on your assessment, you may require 2 or 3 sessions and for more long standing and complex problems you may need several treatments. Our aim is to get you back to performing quickly and we may combine your treatment with Deep Tissue Massage therapy to help speed your recovery

Your initial 45 minute Physiotherapy Assessment costs £47, and then regular 30 minute review sessions cost £38.
