S1 E05 - Dance Injury Series: Torn ACL with Previous Meniscus Tears from the Professional Dance Perspective


Listen Later

Dr. James D Walters, Assistant Professor of Dance Danielle Lydia Sheather, and Professional Dancer Maddison Jayne Cole discuss how previous injuries as a pre-professional dance student can help us to find a team of individuals that can support us through our professional careers. A strong emphasis on learning how to advocate for our own health and a reminder that despite the fact that we are not the medical professionals, we do live in our bodies everyday and can have an acute awareness when something is wrong. We also touch on the importance of intercommunication between health care providers to support the patient.
