Katie Gatica Physical Therapy, LLC -

Katie is an extremely knowledgeable professional who is AMAZING with children and the whole family! We were so blessed to find Dr Katie, not only because of her knowledge, but because she does in home care and can be a bit flexible with a families schedule. I knew my daughter was sitting a bit strange so I make an appointment with Dr Katie. Katie came to our home and during the initial visit, saw what our pediatrician could not see after 3 visits, my daughters hip had an over rotation. Katie designed an exercise plan for our child that was easy for all of us to follow and maximize the success of Physical Therapy. There is no one that I would recommend more than Dr Katie Gatica, she is phenomenal!

Having a child with Down Syndrome, which is usually accompanied by low muscle tone in certain areas, can be a challenge as you try to help them grow in strength and keep that strength. For several months now, Katie has greatly helped our son in his need for greater balance, core strength and endurance. She has been very professional but also fun. She has exciting and inventive ways of helping our son feel like he is playing "fun games" rather than doing a "hard workout". His strength and balance are improving as he incorporates these exercises into his life and daily routines. He really enjoys his once a week visits from Katie.

Dr. Katie is amazing. I was a bit squeptical at first about having PT in home but wow, it has been incredible. She brings everything needed for a session and my girls have literally gone from zero ability to find, engage and use their core, to being extremely strong and coordinated.

We originally signed up for PT due to an ankle injury that my daughter sustained; I signed up my other daughter for core strengthening. My daughters work very hard everyday on their at-home exercises, and they have turned into highly toned, balanced girls. It’s drastically improved their horseback riding, their coordination, strength and flexibility. The ankle injury has been strengthened and we have worked hard to fully resolve the issue, even going as far as working on desensitization due to her nerves being extra sensitive from the injury.

PT might sound boring as a whole, but Dr. Katie makes it interesting and keeps my girls constantly engaged while they do their session. Who knew you could “play” games, giggle and have fun while doing PT!?!

I can’t express how thankful I am for Dr. Katie and all the help she has given!!

We were in the market for a physical therapist for my two daughters. One daughter was 2 months old and the other was 1.5 years old. The girls were having very different issues (one with low muscle tone and the other with delayed gross motor milestones). We had started seeing a chiropractor at the same time as looking into physical therapy and he told us about Dr. Katie. When he mentioned that she’d come to our home I was floored! We have 5 kids and with homeschool and work adding PT seemed daunting. When Katie came to do the initial evaluation I was impressed with our thorough she was and supportive of us being advocates for our kids. She is extremely smart and willing to share her wealth of knowledge. She’s soooo good with kids and our 2 year old LOVES when Ms. Katie comes to play! She’s been seeing our girls for about 6 months now and has been instrumental in helping us work through the medical journey my girls have begun. I will always be grateful for her and the role that she has and will play in my family’s life.

I have been under Dr. Katie Gatica's care for nearly 2 years and my life is so much better thanks to her therapy. I suffered from diastasis recti abdominis and pelvic floor disfunction after having three large babies. She provided care during my last pregnancy and postpartum recovery. She not only gave me tools to improve my physical recovery, but she changed the trajectory of my physical lifestyle. In large part, thanks to her compassionate and thorough care, I have my life back and I am even stronger than before! Dr. Katie is incredibly considerate, accommodating, professional, and is very educated in women and babies physical health. Highly, highly recommend!!

Katie Gatica worked with me after an injury and got me moving again without the pain I had been experiencing! She was kind and helpful... so knowledgeable... I learned a lot! The only bad thing is that there is now ZERO excuses for me not to run! I also attended her Mighty Matanuska Mama classes and it was simple body weight tabatta style exercises... and scalable for every individual's fitness level. I got a good sweat on and the kids being able to play nearby was a bonus! Thanks Katie for helping me heal up!

It was so wonderful to work with Dr. Katie Gatcia physical therapy, she is very encouraging and patient with my daughter and helped her learn to crawl and to walk, I’m so thankful she was able to come to my house twice a week which made the experience even better! I also have learned many helpful things myself with observing and helping with each session. I would highly recommend her for any of your pediatric therapy needs!☺️ Thanks again! And I appreciate all that you’ve done for us!
