Kim Tilander

Kim’s enthusiasm for fitness laid the foundation for her path as a Certified Muscle System Specialist (CMSS). Her personal experiences with back pain and a diagnosis of Spondylolisthesis (a spinal condition that occurs when on vertebra slips out of place onto the vertebra below) have given her a unique perspective on being a pain patient and a renewed devotion in helping other return to a more active lifestyle. Her inquisitive nature and fascination with movement and understanding how the body works, continue to help patients return to a lifestyle they were forced to alter due to injuries, surgeries, accidents and just plain wear and tear. For more than 17 years, her extensive experiences developing solutions to help the body better solve motion problems and deal with the daily forces placed on it have helped countless clients. Kim volunteers to teach classes for cancer patients and survivors because she knows that whole body strength is critical to well being. Kim is known for her discretion and one-on-one focused attention that allows her to perform physical assessments and muscular manipulation as well as physical fitness. The focused attention allows her to assess the health of your muscular system and its role in your joint stability, fatigue, chronic pain and injury. Kim’s experience in working with diverse patients includes stokes, motor vehicle accidents, youth looking to return to sport after injury, and seniors frustrated by the fact they are losing the quality of life they once enjoyed.
