Angela Houston, CAT(C), BAHSc(AT)
Certified Athletic Therapist
Interim in Osteopathy (Thesis Writer)

Angela has completed her fifth and final year of Osteopathy at the Canadian School of Osteopathy in Vancouver. Currently, she is working on her thesis and plans to present her work in April 2019. She is excited to have moved back and join the Balance Osteopathic team.
Angela has always been driven to improve her manual therapy skill set. In 2013, she started studying Osteopathy and has specialized training in cranial sacral therapy, Kinesio taping, visceral manipulation and more.  She believes that continuing education has enabled her to provide more comprehensive treatments for clients.  In doing so, Angela has been able to follow her passion for providing a holistic treatment method that focuses on addressing the root causes of problems and less on treating their symptoms.
Since earning a Bachelor Degree of Applied Health Science and a certification in Athletic Therapy, she has been sought by athletes, academics, office workers, and construction workers to help them restore optimal health and performance.   Angela has a wealth of experience working with orthopaedic surgeons on post-operative cases ranging from debilitating back pain to knee and hip replacements.  With such experience, Angela strongly values working in an environment with a variety of practitioners all unified by common principles.
Angela grew up playing competitive fastball and values the importance of movement.   She understands that the best way to optimize health and performance is to remove the restrictions that limit movement while empowering her clients to move more efficiently and move more often.
