RMT, CLT
Kim is a graduate of Mount Royal University with a 2200 hour Massage Therapy diploma, with a skill set enhanced with a certification in lymphatic drainage. Recently completed in 2023 with the Chikly Health Institute.
Kim is a compassionate and caring therapist looking to help individuals manage their pain, decrease inflammation, boost the immune system, and increase overall wellness. She uses both relaxation and light-to-moderate touch therapeutic massage techniques and creates a treatment plan tailored specifically to the client.
She performs Swedish massage with light-to-moderate pressure techniques, static and dynamic evidence-based cupping.
She specializes in lymphatic drainage levels 1-3, as well as complete decongestive therapy (wraps, garments, taping) for those dealing with lymphedema or lipo-lymphedema. Lymph drainage can also help with acute or chronic swelling conditions such as venous insufficiencies, joint/muscle sprain/strains, activate fluid circulation, reduce muscle spasms and pain, stimulate the immune system, and stimulate the parasympathetic system.
*A doctor will need to be on board with certain conditions regarding lymphedema, and sometimes individuals are not appropriate for treatment (acute infections, DVT’s, major cardiac problems (heart attack, acute angina, uncontrolled CHF to name a few)
Colin Bouma, Physiotherapist
PT, FCAMPT MPT, MRSc, BKin, IMS/Dry Needling, McGill Method, SFMA, FMS
Colin completed his Bachelor of Kinesiology (BKin) from the University of Alberta prior to travelling to Sydney, Australia to complete his Master of Physiotherapy (MPT). While back on Canadian soil, Colin wanted to pursue more, in-depth knowledge around rehabilitation and helping his patients so he undertook the Master of Rehabilitation Studies (MRSc) at the University of British Columbia.
All the intricacies and connections between the body have caused him to further his knowledge in multiple areas through courses and further research. He has been involved in published research involving Platelet Rich Plasma and Central Sensitization in Chronic Whiplash patients. For everyone he sees, Colin loves diving deeper into the issue to find the root cause of pain and limitations while addressing the painful symptoms associated with injuries that come through the door.
For every patient, Colin believes treatment should include 3 things:
1) Education, 2) Exercise, and 3) Manual Therapy.
He believes that with individualized aspects of all three, he can help individuals become the best version of themselves.
Colin is obsessed with helping the Calgary community and playing his part in keeping them doing what they love. He is excited to work alongside his patients and help them achieve their functional goals! Outside of the clinic, he is an avid hiker and gym go-er.
