Catherine Bolton - Clinical Associate

Catherine decided to pursue a career in physiotherapy because of her involvement in sports and dance as a youth. She completed her General Science degree at the University of British Columbia in 2000 and went on to obtain a physiotherapy degree from the University of Alberta in 2004. Since then she has been working in private practice and work conditioning programs in Calgary and Kamloops.

Catherine has taken several continuing education courses since completing her physiotherapy program. In the winter of 2006 Catherine traveled to Australia to take postgraduate studies at Curtin University. She completed an intensive one-month course, earning her Certificate in Orthopedic Manual Therapy (COMT) and hopes to extend this education by returning to Australia for further coursework, leading to a Masters degree in Manual Therapy. In 2009 Catherine completed her anatomical acupuncture training through the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada Institute and now incorporates this tool into her physiotherapy practice. Catherine's treatment interests are in shoulders and the lumbar spine, although she welcomes all types of musculoskeletal patients!

In her spare time Catherine enjoys a variety of activities including pilates, hiking, biking, skiing and spending time outside in the beautiful Kamloops sunshine!
