"I have been a Klinik client for almost 9 years now and for the past few years, I've alternated seeing Linda Lalande and Katherine Couch-Burroughs for my massages. Although both have slightly different massage styles, they are amazing at working out my aches and pains (especially during my pregnancy and postpartum!). Linda also managed to give me a massage while I breastfed my 2 month old daughter! Talk about being flexible & working around my needs. Both Linda & Katherine have a wonderful bedside manner, create a relaxed atmosphere & are courteous & professional. If you're looking to try a new RMT, I encourage you to check out both Linda and Katherine!"

Katherine has worked for over 25 years as a registered massage therapist. She provides tailored support for specific and complex health challenges, including shoulder and neck issues, whiplash, achilles and patellar tendon rupture, hip and knee replacements, pre and post surgical treatment for mastectomy, spinal fusion, C-section including surgical scar management, and post-concussion syndrome—to name a few. In most cases, she uses a combination of Swedish massage and myofascial release techniques, adjusting all the time to what feels right for the client.
Katherine draws on years of experience and technical training to bring the body back. She has taken many continuing education courses, primarily in myofascial release and cranial sacral / visceral learning from Natale Rao and Heather Gittens. For her athletic clients, Katherine’s background in competitive Olympic-style weightlifting lends itself to understanding the demands and joys of an active and/or high-performance lifestyle.
Katherine is both owner and practitioner at Klinik in Vancouver, with a varied and loyal clientele to whom she is forever grateful.
She is now growing a new client community at The Lab in Nelson. Katherine moved to Nelson in June 2023—a return to her roots. She was born in Trail, lived her earliest years in Montrose and Castlegar, and then spent the next 50 years growing up, working, and raising her kids around the province before returning to the Kootenays. In her time off, you will find Katherine on the rail trail with her husband and their two crazy Bernedoodles, volunteering at her daughter’s school, skiing at Whitewater, and training downstairs at The Lab. She travels back to Vancouver regularly to connect with Vancouver clients and the Klinik team.
Graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 1995.

This is the place to go to feel better! The home of my favourite massage therapist Katherine Couch and accupuncturist Jennifer Jellis. They have remedied and helped bring my body back to a positive place. Klinik Vancouver was recommended to me from my wife's colleagues. From my first interaction I was automatically treated professionally and respectfully. Appointments are easy to make and the scheduling program actually sends you reminders. I have been going here regularly for 2 years and will continue to make this my home for being well.

I've been receiving massage treatments at this clinic for many years now and have seen several of their RMTs (Katherine, Linda, Donna and Igor for various injuries and ailments (some chronic, some acute). Each a unique practitioner, they are all experienced, professional and caring in the work they do. Other positives - accessible, central location, soothing atmosphere inside Klinik, and the online booking feature is very user friendly.
