    Journal: Phys Med Rehabil Clin N Am; 2006 Nov; 17(4):747-53, v. PubMed ID: 17097476.
    Abstract:
    The health of performing artists may be affected not only by occupational risks but by concomitant illness and injuries also. It is essential that those responsible for their health care have an appreciation of all that is involved in performance careers, including the training, requisites for success, life style issues, and a basic understanding of the mechanics of each performing art form. This article briefly considers why the health care of performing artists necessitates a specialized approach and gives some suggestions for a modus operandi for success.
