    The\u00a0Marshall University Center for Wellness in the Arts<\/a>\u00a0is a place where injured performing artists can be evaluated by licensed athletic trainers who have the proper knowledge and equipment to treat their injuries.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The CWA was created with\u00a0three components: education, treatment and research. Many performing arts students have developed a mentality that a certain amount of pain is a part of the performer\u2019s process. We want to change the culture and educate students so they look at pain as a problem and treat it accordingly so they can enjoy a\u00a0successful career in the performing arts.<\/p>\n

    Since August 2014, the\u00a0College of Health Professions<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0College of Arts and Media<\/a>\u00a0have offered performing and visual arts students the chance to work with athletic trainers to prevent injury from occurring during performances.<\/p>\n

    In the upcoming academic year, the CWA will offer the following services:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Injury prevention sessions with certified athletic trainers<\/li>\n
    2. Performance anxiety workshops with health scientists<\/li>\n
    3. Nutrition and weight management training with registered dietitians<\/li>\n
    4. Agility and mobility training with exercise scientists<\/li>\n
    5. Baseline hearing assessments, vocal education and treatment with speech-language pathologists<\/li>\n
    6. Vision training to improve reaction times in performances with exercise physiologists<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n

      The\u00a0Exercise Science Laboratories<\/a> are housed in Gullickson Hall and include the Exercise Physiology Lab, the Muscle Physiology Lab and the Clinical Exercise Physiology Lab. Each of these\u00a0provide undergraduate and graduate students with hands-on\u00a0opportunities to work in the clinical setting. Find out more at www.marshall.edu\/exercise-science<\/a>.<\/p>\n
