What is DANCE|PREHAB?

As dancers, educators, and physical therapists, we know that awareness and attention to physical health and wellness does not have to begin with injury.
Before we are dancers, we are human. At DANCE|PREHAB, let's build strong human foundations to elevate your artistry and prolong your career.

"I felt cared for, listened to, and understood by Dr. Tsai. He made sure to keep a consistent, open line of communication and challenged me throughout my journey towards forming healthier habits. After four years with chronic lower back pain from a traumatic injury, I have finally found a physical therapist that has successfully guided me to find consistent progression in the healing process..."

"In the past, I have experienced physiotherapists looking down upon a dancer's education, not realizing the amount of knowledge their body does carry. You were respectful, gentle, and motivating! Thank you for all that you offer..."

"I have endless gratitude for Rob and his mentorship in my life. My past training had always been framed around how to prevent further injury of my hip, and I never even thought to think bigger. It's been unbelievably refreshing to not be chained down to old injuries and train with new intentions."

"Dr. Tsai is extremely patient and knowledgeable. He not only showed me exercises that effectively alleviated my upper back pain, but was able to help me understand the root causes of the issue in clear, non-technical terms. I am grateful to say that our session was equally educational as it was healing."
