This month’s newsletter focuses on the unique physiotherapy needs of dancers and performing artists, exploring how we help manage injuries and optimise performance. We also share some bittersweet studio news with fond farewells to valued team members, and introduce our new Zumba Gold class times and a mini-workout for finding calm.

For dancers and performing artists, your body is your instrument, subjected to extraordinary and unique physical stresses. From extreme ranges of motion to high-impact, repetitive movements, these demands require specialised care. Our expert physiotherapy helps manage these specific risks, preventing injury and ensuring you thrive throughout a long, healthy career.

Struggling with shoulder pain? Our feature article decodes the common causes and explains how physiotherapy can help you find relief. Also in this edition, discover the fun of our new Zumba Gold classes, kickstart your day with a quick morning stretch, and check for staff news and holiday hours.

That nagging ache or sharp pain in your shoulder can be debilitating. Common causes range from rotator cuff tears and impingement to conditions like frozen shoulder. At Activate, our physiotherapists conduct a thorough assessment to find the root cause and create a tailored plan to reduce pain and restore mobility.

This month, we’re helping you tackle that “pain in the neck” with our feature article. We are also excited to announce updates, including new evening Pilates spots with instructor Madeleine, new equipment, and fun new group classes!
