Physical Therapist
Catherine Branagan, known as Katie, has had the opportunity to work in a wide variety of clinical settings; sports medicine, neuro-rehabilitation, and orthopedic outpatient rehabilitation. She believes our bodies strive for symmetry and balance in order to stand and sit well against gravity, while being able to perform functional, recreational, and fitness activities of our choosing.
Her physical therapy approach has been strongly influenced by her study and practice of yoga.
She applies the principles of alignment in her treatment programs.
Katie enjoys treating general orthopedic injuries, as well as neuro-degenerative and other neurological movement disorders.
Having completed her Barcelona Schroth Scoliosis Certification, she is also treating patients with scoliosis. In addition to individualized treatment programs, Katie instructs Pilates reformer classes for clients with scoliosis.
Outside of the clinic, she is an endurance athlete. She has completed many marathons and Triathlons and enjoys mountain biking, hiking, sailing, skiing, and paddle boarding.
