Katherine Donovan, Board Certified Structural Integrator, Registered Massage Therapist. Katherine began her career in physical rehabilitation with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, graduating from Simon Fraser University in 1996. She worked as a Kinesiologist/Exercise Therapist for 5 years before returning to school to study Massage Therapy at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in Vancouver, BC (graduating in 2002). Her focus and passion has been doing KMI (Kinesis Myofascial Integration), a form of Structural Integration (similar to Rolfing), where she studied with Tom Myers in Walpole, Maine 2008. This work has shifted her sense of self, both physically and emotionally and has added a valuable aspect to her practice. It has renewed her interest in how the body can achieve a higher level of function, and feels that this work really is a gateway to the deeper understanding of health and well-being. Katherine is currently studying in Neural and Visceral Manipulation and is integrating these techniques as part of her global approach to the body. She has also completed the 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training and hopes to bring more of a movement aspect to her sessions. She is a Registered Massage Therapist, Certified KMI Practitioner. The design of KMI is to unwind the strain patterns residing in your body’s locomotors system, restoring it to its natural balance, alignment, length, and ease. Common strain patterns come about from inefficient movement habits, and our body’s response to poorly designed cars, desks, telephones, and airplanes, etc. Individual strain patterns can come from the invasions of injury or surgery or birth, and from our body’s response to traumatic episodes. As well, gestures can become a habit, which becomes a posture and eventually lodges in our structure. KMI is designed to unwind this process and reduce structural stress. The method depends on a unique property of the body’s connective tissue network. The basic KMI 12 series creates the foundation and adaptability to change. It guides the client session by session to a higher level of body awareness and healthy states, naturally healing one's self. If you are new to KMI Structural Integration or have never done a Structural session, we strongly recommend doing the basic 12 session series. As Katherine is a Registered Massage Therapist, you may claim your sessions in your extended medical plan.
