Hi, I am Kathy Urschel. I have been a member of Personal Fitness for several years. I was a professional cyclist for many years, competing in the Atlanta Paralympics. I was blessed to receive a silver medal at the height of my career in Atlanta. Unfortunately a few years after, I was involved in a devastating cycling accident leaving me paralyzed on my right side. I was told I would never walk again. With 100% determination of myself and Personal Fitness I am able to walk. I then returned to school and became a Massage Therapist. Though I no longer complete at the Olympic level, I still enjoy cycling and occasionally enter local cycling races if tandem divisions are available.

Along with my Masters from SU as a Rehab Councilor and my Massage Therapy license I am concentrating on the athlete's needs at this time. Whether weekend warriors or structured ironman competitors, I know the rigorous demands you place on yourself and your muscles. I am here to offer myo-fascia release work, deep connective tissue release and Swedish massage (relaxation and muscle toning).

Take some time out of your hectic day and reward yourself and your muscles. I will customize your needs to my schedule. My appointment book will be at the receptionist desk at Personal Fitness.
