Meische’s passion and career path began in rehab after several devastating major knee injuries. She, over her high school and collegiate years, has spent years in physical therapy where she witnessed the impact a strong rehab team can have on a patient. She returned to competition after each injury and ultimately was able to compete as four year varsity collegiate athlete at Frostburg State University.
She completed her Bachelor’s in Athletic training at Frostburg State University where she worked with college level athletes from various sporting backgrounds. Here she evaluated and implemented appropriate, individualize rehab protocols. She continued to work as a Certified Athletic Trainer while pursuing her graduate degree. She worked for Lowellville High School, Lowellville, OH where she was the first Athletic Trainer employed by the school. There she implemented and developed their athletic training program and was responsible for all student-athletes. She received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Youngstown State. As part of her Physical Therapy residency, she worked in various settings to include ICU in-patient, pediatrics and out-patient. She began her post-graduate career at Pivot Physical Therapy where she worked with a multitude of post-surgical, orthopedic, and mobility impairments. She specialized as the Concussion Specialist at her clinic where she evaluated, diagnosed and provided appropriate treatment plans for concussions. She was denoted as one of the physical therapist with a strong background in sports based injury and rehabilitation, taking on the majority of the athletic case load. Her continued path through the physical therapy realm has placed her in various outpatient settings that ranged from sport clinics to sub-acute rehab settings. Her most recent employment was with the United States Air Force here in Alaska where she worked with active-duty members to return to duty and maintain the mission. Her physical therapy journey has lent her the opportunity to work with patients of all ages, backgrounds, and stages of life. Her experiences have allowed her to grow as a clinician and bring a different perspective to rehabilitation.
Athlete’s need to return to their best: the highest level of competition whether it be the collegiate level, high school, weekend warriors, chasing their kids around, work, or an active overall lifestyle. Meische’s goal in the rehab of her patient’s is to take every “athlete” and return them to their life’s passion.
When Meische is not in the office helping her patients, she enjoys spending time with her friends, hiking with her malamute and exploring Alaska’s splendor.

Kim – Licensed Massage Therapist
Kim has been a massage therapist for 10 years. She has made Alaska her home for the last 24 years. She is an Air Force Veteran, and this is the longest she has ever stayed in one place, doing the same thing. She graduated from Alaska Carrier College in 2009.
She feels this healing modality picked her after many of life’s twists and turns in her healing journey for back pain. She decided to find natural remedies to her back pain, because she was terrified of the opioid epidemic in our country. She had heard from her pregnant roommate, that chiropractors get to the root of the pain with adjusting the spine. Because of that seed being planted 10 years earlier, she knew that was where she needed to start her healing journey. Massage was a thing assigned in tandem with her chiropractic treatment plan. Her therapist was gentle and kind. He brought healing to her depressed soul. The power of touch changed her life! She had no idea that touch could be so healing for her mind, body and should. She was changed and wanted to bring this healing help to others.
She practices Swedish Massage and has concentration in Reflexology. With over 300 hours in specialized training, she tries to always incorporate this modality into her massage sessions. She also enjoys working with essential oils, and acupressure. She also performs prenatal, and hot stone massage.
In her spare time, Kim enjoys photography, reading, painting and singing. She plans to travel the world, taking pictures and working on publishing her book.
