Hi everyone!! I just want to take some time to officially introduce myself. My name is Catherina Amato, I am a registered massage therapist and a rehabilitation and well being specialist. I’m addicted to learning about humans, balance, and self growth. I am not the best with social media but I’m taking baby steps to get better I believe in working as a group to help clients achieve better results and I believe in collaboration even though I work for myself. So, If you ...are in the health care field then please introduce yourself. I’m often referring clients and many have insurance that covers a host of therapies. About me: I have a background in holistic nutrition and working with people with different physical and developmental abilities. I research psychology and mind/body science as a hobby. I’ve played many sports and have endured many injuries so I mean it when I say I feel ya. I spent years working in physio clinics and also working for myself. I am a certified personal trainer, I’ve taken amazing mobility courses, including FRC. I Believe in not taking life too seriously yet seeking truth and learning to function at your optimal level. You must be wondering what type of massage I do. I focus on assessing each client and looking far back into their history to understand their injuries and dysfunctions to help me have a visual of where and why areas are not moving as well. I use cupping, different types of stretch , gua sha, and many massage techniques to help mobilize tissues in areas that aren’t moving as well and which have less blood flow. Giving proper home care and client education is important to me as it empowers and helps clients to take their wellbeing into their own hands with my (and or other health care practitioner’s) support. To find out more about me please visit my webpage: www.Mindmattermovement.ca and PM me. Don’t be shy!

Check out my new business cards I can’t wait to pass them around & possibly meet new awesome people. I also offer Online personalized sessions. These sessions are not limited to people in Ottawa. PM me if you have any questions about it! Perhaps you have a family member that may need some movement guidance from the comfort of their home.

Tendinitis Tendinitis: Tendinitis is the inflammation of a tendon, a tough rope-like tissue that connects muscle to bone. Causes: chronic overload of the tendon, leading to mico-tearing and an inflammatory response in the tendon. ... Contributing factors: muscle imbalance, poor biomechanics, lack of flexibility, poor blood supply to the tendon, improper equipment or training errors ( in this case it is suspected to be improper footwear and foot care). *Quick video of me working through some sticky tissues along the calf using @sidekicktool while client is moving their ankle from plantar flexion into dorsiflexion. #mindmattermovement #sidekicktool #tendinitis #ottawahealthy #ottawawellness #ottawaactive #softtissuemobilization #ottawarunning
