Biography

In 2006, Jennifer become a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) and has been working here ever since. Prior to that, she worked as a Recreational Therapist and Aquatic Exercise Specialist at Latah Health Services in Moscow, ID for eleven years.

She uses traditional strengthening approaches but is also trained in Bad Ragaz (a supine supported technique for pain management) and Ai Chi (water Tai Chi). Jennifer is also proficient with land based exercise focused on improving functional mobility through a variety of manual and exercise techniques.
