Today, Brooke Patterson hosts Annie Strauch and Catherine Etty-Leal, both experienced Australian physiotherapists with a Masters in Sports Physio and Musculoskeletal Physio. Annie’s passion for performance physiotherapy started in London’s West End where she managed performers in over 30 productions. After that, Performance Medicine (https://performancemedicine.com.au/) was born, a multidisciplinary clinic to provide singers, dancers and performers with tailored physiotherapy treatment.  Annie and Catherine both specialise in vocal physiotherapy, and provide some tips for online public speaking. They discuss injury management and prevention for performing artists, and the cultural considerations. Sports medicine professionals have a big role to play in the performing arts industry, and Annie and Catherine share some tips for getting involved in the field.
