Coryn qualified as a physiotherapist in 2002, and has over 20 years of experience (10 years owning a private practice). She has three areas of special interest, including pain management, musculoskeletal physiotherapy and aquatic physiotherapy. For a more detailed read, see below: Coryn Katz’s physiotherapy career was established at the young age of 11 years old during frequent visits to the physiotherapist for tennis injuries! She graduated from Tulane University (USA) in 1998 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Pre-Med, double majoring in Cell and Molecular Biology and Psychology while on a tennis scholarship. Coryn was named to the “Who's Who among Students in Universities and Colleges in America” after topping the Dean's List and graduating Magna Cum Laude. She returned to South Africa to attend The University of Cape Town and completed her Bachelor of Science Physiotherapy Degree in 2002. She went on to complete her community service year at Red Cross Children's Hospital in 2003. Coryn has completed advanced dry needling courses, as well as a kinesiology taping course. She has a special interest in helping people who suffer from both chronic and acute pain. This led her to complete a Post-graduate Diploma in Pain Management through The University of Cape Town in 2021, in which she graduated with distinction under the guidance of Professor Romy Parker. She completed the advanced neuromuscular skeletal (ANMS/OMT) course in 2022 through Wits University which has equipped her with the clinical reasoning to effectively assess and treat both complex acute and chronic neuro-musculoskeletal conditions. Aquatic physiotherapy, which is her passion, lead her to complete aquatic foundation, neurology and orthopedic courses in 2013. She is one of a handful of qualified Watsu practitioners in South Africa, having had the privilege of being taught by America's aquatic therapy guru, Peggy Schoedinger. She is also accomplished in techniques taught by Britain's Dr Heather Epps. She completed post-graduate aquatic studies in Switzerland in 2014 under the guidance of the pioneers of aquatic physiotherapy techniques, and world leaders in the field, Johan Lambeck and Urs Gamper. She previously worked as an aquatic physiotherapist at Vincent Pallotti Hospital in Pinelands, Cape Town. Coryn designed and built a unique aquatic physiotherapy centre in Cape Town in 2013, with each and every client in mind. She immigrated to Sydney, Australia, with the same vision: the desire to facilitate able-bodied and disabled clients to function optimally, and to improve their quality of life. All facilities are wheelchair-friendly, and an electric hoist allows for entry into the pool of the most severely disabled client. Coryn has a passion for rehabilitation and for returning clients to an optimal level of functioning. This passion has been fueled by her love for sports including tennis, marathon running and Ironman triathlons. She also loves sewing and cooking. She is a committed wife and a devoted mother to four beautiful children.
