Title: A brief report: A rehabilitation journey in a professional elite ballet dancer.
Authors: Roncaglia, Irina (AUTHOR)
Source: Sport & Exercise Psychology Review. Jul2024, Vol. 19 Issue 1, p47-54. 8p.
Subjects: Ballet dancers, Psychotherapy, Active listening, Achilles tendon rupture, Self-esteem, Rehabilitation, Treatment programs
Abstract: Purpose: This brief report aims to present and reflect on the lessons learnt from practice with an individual case professional dancer who sought comprehensive psychological support as a result of a trauma-injury ruptured Achilles tendon during a live performance. Method & Results: A professional elite ballet dancer received a total of 12 sessions delivered weekly lasting 60 minutes each session. Rehabilitation post-surgery included physiotherapy, strength and conditioning, pilates, nutrition and psychological support as part of a comprehensive package. Quantitative data through the PANAS questionnaire (Watson et al., 1988) was administered at baseline, midpoint and at the end of the sessions. Three main themes emerged as acquired skills through psychological interventions: 1) self-confidence and self-esteem, 2) a renewed sense of belonging, and 3) a sense of autonomy. Discussion & Conclusions: A dancers' centred approach in providing psychological support for a comprehensive rehabilitation program where transdisciplinary interlinked approaches benefited the recovery from injury to full recovery. Reflections highlight the importance of positive person-centred psychological models of practice, the Rogerian foundations of authenticity, non-judgemental and guiding principles of recovery and the clinician positionality, active listening and compassion.
