Anna Katamay – Physiotherapist

Course instructor at the School for Visceral Therapy

Anna Katamay was born in 1980 in Oberndorf near Salzburg and lives with her daughter and son in Wels-Land, Upper Austria.

Ausbildung

Anna graduated from the Academy of Physiotherapy in Wels, Upper Austria, in 2003 and then worked for a year at the Laakirchen Private Hospital. 

A maternity leave followed, and Anna's children were born in 2005 and 2008. In 2011, Anna began working as a physiotherapist at the PKA Physical Institute in Wels, where she also served as a senior therapist from 2013 onwards.

In 2010, Anna also opened her own small practice in Wels as a freelance physiotherapist. Upon resuming her physiotherapy work, Anna attended a number of advanced training courses, including Craniosacral Therapy according to Upledger, Manual Therapy according to Maitland, FDM, and Breathwork Physiotherapy. Due to her specialization in gynecology, urology, and proctology, she also took a number of specialized courses (pelvic floor therapy for men, women, and children, vaginal palpation, vulvodynia, etc.).
She also completed various additional training courses on management tasks and personal development.

Anna completed her first visceral therapy course in 2011, and since then, visceral therapy has been a constant companion to Anna's therapeutic journey. She completed her master's course in 2018 and began supporting visceral therapy courses as an assistant that same year. In 2021, Anna took the courageous step of changing her professional situation after 10 years at the institute. Since then, she has worked exclusively as a freelancer and enjoys her work in the group practice "Physio am Markt" in Wels, together with two colleagues.

When she started her freelance work in her own practice, Anna also began her teacher training in visceral therapy with Florinda Czeija, which she successfully completed in 2024.

Philosophy

When she began working as a physiotherapist, Anna felt that something was missing in her calling. With the holistic concept of visceral therapy, she found the missing piece, and since then, visceral therapy has become an integral part of Anna's daily work with patients. 

With the quality and respect that Anna herself experienced as a course participant and learner of Visceral Therapy and further with the high-quality contact with the patients and their tissue, as well as an incredible theoretical knowledge of the most exciting anatomical connections, her therapeutic work has changed significantly and Anna describes that in this way she began to arrive as a therapist.

With some excitement and a lot of joy, she followed Florinda's call in 2021 to take on the role of teacher herself.
