Hi, I'm Cate, the Athletic Therapist at Soma Osteopathy and Wellness.
Let me share a bit about myself.
Growing up, sports were my passion and my sanctuary. When I'm not in the clinic, you'll find me on the trails, hiking, running, and biking. This deep-rooted love for sports extends to my commitment to helping clients achieve their work-play balance.
I graduated from Camosun College with a Bachelor's degree in Athletic and Exercise Therapy in 2016. My education included in-depth studies in Anatomy, Exercise Physiology, taping, emergency care, orthopedic assessment for injury rehabilitation, and exercise prescription. I excel in one-on-one interactions with clients in the clinic and am trained in on-field injury assessment and immediate/emergency care as a First Responder.
Injuries, whether you're a professional athlete or a weekend enthusiast, take a toll beyond the physical pain. The emotional and mental strain of being sidelined or uncertain about your return to your sport or hobby can be overwhelming. I've been in your shoes, and I empathize with your journey. Together, we'll devise a personalized treatment plan and create a supportive environment for your recovery.
