Get to Know Dr. Phil Gauthier

I’m a husband, dog dad, entrepreneur, and fitness enthusiast. My family and my health are two of the most important things in my life and it has taken me years of various struggles and trials to find the proper balance between life and fitness. I’ve been through phases of life where my health was suboptimal but my work was great, and I’ve been through phases of life where my work suffered but my health was great. These experiences weren’t easy, but were necessary in my personal growth.

Factoring in my experience as a Doctor of Physical Therapy, fitness coach, athlete, and Inc. 5000 business owner (Element 26), I learned how to get time to work in my favor to find a sustainable balance of life and health/fitness. All that experience added up to thousands of hours of practice and refinement. Experience helping others improve physically, practice optimizing the best fitness plan for myself, and patience learning how to balance the life I wanted with the fitness level necessary to thrive. If I can tell you one thing, it’s that there’s no secret recipe for success. It simply starts with outlining the life you want and then taking one actionable step, big or small. That is why I started Catalyst Fitness and Wellness℠. To help you, and others like me, find a personalized, sustainable balance between life and fitness

Catalyst Fitness Mission Statement

Catalyst Fitness and Wellness℠ was founded by Dr. Phil Gauthier DPT, CSCS in 2023 after years of frustration in the fitness and healthcare fields.

It wasn’t just the spread of misinformation that triggered Phil’s passion, but rather the lack of results he noticed in these individuals along with the systems that prevented them from living their best life. So it’s his goal and the mission at Catalyst Fitness and Wellness℠ to help every client improve their quality of life and longevity through a holistic fitness and wellness approach.
