Specialized performing arts medicine at TRIA

No, you don’t need a referral to make an appointment for performing arts medicine care. You can make an appointment with one of our specialists directly.

Some insurance companies may require a referral. If you’re not sure what your insurance covers, call the number on the back of your insurance card.

Our performing arts medicine program is designed for performers and athletes of all ages who specialize in a wide range of activities. We’ve worked with performers in the circus arts, gymnastics, cheerleading, dance, figure skating and many others.

If you’ve sustained an injury that affects your ability to perform at your highest level, our team of specialists can help.

During your first appointment, we’ll talk with you about your condition, symptoms and treatment goals. We recommend that most patients schedule their first appointment with a medical doctor and a physical therapist. You can also schedule an appointment directly with a physical therapist if you’d prefer. Our specialists will evaluate your condition and guide you toward the right treatments so you can get the specialized care you need.

After your consultation is complete, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan that’s unique to your needs. This plan will help you get the care you need so you can return to performing quickly, safely and confidently. In some cases, you may be able to start rehabilitation during the first appointment.

If your organization is interested in partnering with our performing arts medicine team, contact sportsmedicine@tria.com or call 952-993-9607.

We accept most health insurance plans, including Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota, CIGNA, HealthPartners, Medica, Medicare, Medicare Advantage, PreferredOne and many others.

You can check with your insurance to see if your plan covers part or all of the services needed. Call the number on the back of your card for help looking at your options.
