Tanya's Qualifications
Background
   Tanya has been a licensed Physical Therapist for about 19 years, 15 of those in independent, private
practice!  After graduating at the very top of her class, she became skilled in all aspects of therapy~pediatrics
through geriatrics.
    Then in early 2000, a lifelong love and experience in the animal world married together with the idea of
treating 4-legged, furry individuals; originally born out of her own animals' necessity.  
    Since then, Tanya has completed extensive continuing education to further her knowledge of the canine and
equine client; including all modules for her post-graduate certification in Canine Rehabilitation through the
University of Tennessee.  She is a frequent attendee at veterinary symposiums across the country as well as an
avid reader of cutting edge research so her treatments are modern and evidence-based.
   As a seasoned clinician, she has vast experience with wellness programs, post-injury rehabilitation and the
use of modalities as well as their purpose.  Tanya is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (NSCA),
Certified Equine Sports Massage Therapist (ARI), Registered Yoga Teacher (YA) and Certified Small Animal
LASER practitioner. In addition, she is one of only a handful of Physical Therapists certified as an "Expert
Consultant" [and Practice Monitor] by the licensing examining board of California.  Tanya has served as an
Expert Witness on civil legal matters related to physical therapy.
   In her off-time, she is a self-confessed shophalic and practices amateur free-diving in Maui several times a
year.
