No. Maine Dance Medicine is built specifically for dancers and performers. Laura's clinical training is grounded in dance biomechanics, not adapted from general sports medicine. That specialization is what makes the work different.

The initial evaluation is $250 (90 minutes). Follow-up sessions are $200 per visit. If you're planning ongoing work, package pricing brings that per-visit rate down.

We have clinic locations in Yarmouth and Falmouth, Maine. Onsite services are available for studios and companies throughout the greater Portland area, including Cumberland and York counties.

No. Maine is a direct access state, which means you can see a licensed physical therapist without a physician's referral. Book directly with us without a doctor visit or the delays that come with it. 

Yes. Laura works with dancers at every stage, from pre-professional students preparing for pointe work to conservatory dancers managing high training loads all the way to professional dancers maintaining health for a long career. 

If you're a parent with questions about a younger dancer, get in touch and we'll tell you whether it's the right fit.

Yes. Maine Dance Medicine offers interactive workshops for dancers, parents, and teachers. Sessions focus on injury prevention and the specific physical demands of performance. The goal is to give participants real, practical tools for their life.

Workshop topics include:

• General injury prevention (warm-up and cool-down technique, strengthening to offset the demands of choreography, costuming, and blocking)

• Strength and conditioning for turnout

• Breathwork and core strengthening

• Pointe readiness and pointe prep

Workshops are available for studios, schools, and performing companies. Get in touch to learn more →
