The Sports Therapy Association Podcast is recorded LIVE every Tuesday at 8pm (UK) on the Sports Therapy Association YouTube channel and Facebook Page, and then uploaded as a podcast. You do not have to be an STA member to attend the live recordings - it is a chance to network with fellow therapists and discuss topics that together help us all move forward as an industry. The goal of the podcast, hosted by Matt Phillips (creator of runchatlive.com), is to deliver to Soft Tissue Therapists of all levels (including massage therapists, sports therapists, physiotherapists, podiatrists, chiropractors, etc.) up to date information on how to be a modern, successful, effective health care practitioner, with a gold star reputation for being able to help people in pain and/or looking for performance gains. The Sports Therapy Association (STA) is a professional representation for Sports Therapists, Sports Injury Therapists and Soft Tissue Therapists. We have worked passionately to develop a truly independent and ethical association that is committed to raising standards across the industry and progressing opportunities for our valued members.

Ep.60 'Working with West End Pro Dancers' with special guest Liz Bayley

Sunday Jul 25, 2021

In Ep.60 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast, due to popular demand we welcome back Physiotherapist & former pro dancer Liz Bailey.

Liz was our special guest back in January in Ep.33, talking about 'Virtual Consultation for Dancers' when we were all knee deep in lockdown. With lockdown now hopefully a thing in the past, Liz is currently resident physiotherapist on The Lion King with West End Osteopathy.

Liz is no stranger to the West End, having worked on shows such as Wicked, The Wizard of Oz, Singing in the Rain, Shrek, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Chicago, Matilda and Jersey Boys. A professional dancer herself for 15 years, Liz has performed all over the world and has a wonderful understanding of being both the patient and the therapist, giving her unique insights into injury rehabilitation.

In this episode, Liz discusses her work with Pro Dancers, the highs, the lows, the challenges and expectations. During the hour conversation we cover the most common type of dance related injuries that Liz sees, screening for injury (better known as profiling), and the types of progression that Liz and her colleagues are championing in order to help reduce the high incidence of injury seen within in the Performing Arts industry.

A fantastic episode of huge value to both therapists and dancers. We thank Liz once again for giving up her time to speak to us.
