Sarah Sherman's Theories

Sarah Sherman was the guest speaker this week who is a PT, DPT, ATC and SCS with Texas Health. She was a former competitive figure skater who became interested in PT through her own injuries and her infatuation with anatomy. She spoke about the care the SCCD dancers can receive; along with common injuries seen in dancer and prevention techniques. I was able to take away specific knowledge about my body as a dancer. I learned that some of the injuries that may arise are back pain, hip pain, sprained ankles, and stress fractures. I was also able to learn and understand that there is a difference between pain and muscle soreness, pain being sharp and sudden while soreness is duller and comes later.
Sherman spoke a large amount of how to be healthy
