As a clinician, Tiffany’s experience is with orthopedics. In treatment she uses various concepts and lessons from Pilates, utilizing core stabilization and the three Pilates Apparatus: The Reformer, The Trapeze Table/Cadillac and the Combo Chair. She also strongly emphasizes patient education on body mechanics and movement strategies to promote joint protection and efficiency in movement. Her treatment philosophy is based on patient/family education and promoting self management and injury prevention. On a personal note, Tiffany also enjoys many outdoor activities. She can often be found hiking in the Chugach Mountains, fishing on the Russian or Kenai Rivers, camping all over the state and running on the Coastal Trail with her three daughters and her dog O
