# What's New at NWAHEC
## [Don't Miss the Winston-Salem Dance Medicine Conference 2021](https://go.northwestahec.wakehealth.edu/blog/ws-dance-medicine-conference-2021)

Participation in dance as a sport continues to grow. As a result of increased participation, therefore, there is a growing need for health care providers to understand this group of athletes and their unique demands: their biomechanics are extreme, their psychosocial stressors are significant and the treatments they require are unique.
Despite the growth of dance, familiarity with dance medicine (including the physiological and psychological concerns of dancers) remains relatively sparse among practitioners. The field of dance medicine involves complex biomechanics and an intricate interplay between sport, art, and emotional expression, which is often poorly understood by physicians and other healthcare professionals who treat this unique group. This can lead to delays in care, missed diagnoses, or suboptimal patient interactions when discussing injury.
The intent of this conference is to educate a diverse population, including physicians, APPs, dietitians, physical and occupational therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, dance instructors, and dancers about the important core concepts in Dance Medicine, particularly the importance of biomechanics and multidisciplinary care.
