Hip and Knee Pain and Weakness in Dancers

Follow motivPT’s Dr Alex Loch, a Dance-Specialist Physical Therapist, as he trains you how to strengthen your hips to achieve balance and avoid hip and knee pain! Ballroom and social dancers put a lot of demand on their legs and hips. Without strong and capable hips, both these joints, your knees and your ankles are put at risk for pain and injury. Do this challenging exercise, and don’t let pain or weakness limit you.

At motivPT, we’ll get you moving in a healthy way. If you have pain, weakness, or imbalance, consider booking with us for an online Physical Therapy routine customized to fit your individual needs. Book your free 15 minute consult to talk with Dr. Alex about your specific concerns and to learn more about how we work!

Hi, I’m Alex.
Physical Therapist
I’m a professional dancer turned physical therapist who understands how injury can disrupt how we work and play. I take a movement-focused approach and specialize in working with those who are motivated to achieve their best selves and strive to fully participate in life. I have had the opportunity to work with patients across the spectrum of care; from patients learning to walk after a stroke, patients returning to work after injury, to professional ballet dancers honing their techniques and restoring muscle imbalances. If you are someone who is driven to keep moving and not afraid to put in a little work, motivPT is right for you. I can’t wait to meet you.
