Over the last few weeks I have begun working with dancers virtually, allowing for more time to assess and address the aches and pains that are usually spot treated until the off season when we have more time.  It has become apparent how important spinal mobility is and how often dancers are able to find alternative pathways to create mobility, especially rotational mobility.  

ON this week's episode of the dance docs Dr. Davenport and I will take a deep dive into the anatomy and mechanics of spinal rotation, common movement faults that we tend to see in dancers, and how to work to create a beautiful spiral through the spine.
