a different kind of care
Finally, a provider who gets dance
There's something different about being in a room with someone who just gets it. You don't have to explain why sitting out isn't an option, or why "it only hurts during this one specific move" actually matters.
Here, your concerns are taken seriously from the start—and everything we do is built around helping you move better, heal smarter, and get back to doing what you love.

common questions
Before your first visit
Everything you need to know to feel prepared and confident.
No referral is needed. As a sports medicine chiropractor, Dr. Leah can see patients directly. Simply schedule a discovery call to get started.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely—similar to what you'd wear to dance class. Athletic wear, leggings, or shorts and a fitted top work well so Dr. Leah can properly assess your movement.
The goal is always to keep you moving in some capacity. Dr. Leah will work with you to modify your training as needed while you recover—not simply bench you for weeks. Every care plan is designed around maintaining as much of your dance practice as safely possible.
This varies based on your specific injury, training demands, and goals. After your initial evaluation, Dr. Leah will outline a clear treatment plan with estimated timeline and the amount of sessions you'll need to reach your goals.
Absolutely. Dr. Leah works with dancers of all ages, from young competitive dancers to professionals. For younger patients, parents are welcome and encouraged to be present during appointments to understand the treatment plan and support their dancer's recovery at home.
That's exactly what the free discovery visit is for. It's a no-pressure opportunity to discuss your concerns, have your movement assessed, and get Dr. Leah's professional perspective—with no obligation to continue care if it's not the right fit.
