Why I built a whole practice around a tingle.
You know the feeling. A soft touch traces down your spine and every tiny hair stands up, and for a moment your whole body just softens. I'm Tiffany Cruz, and I built Feather & Fawn because that feeling is the reason I could finally relax.
The opposite of the fix-it kind of treatment.
A car accident left me with a spinal injury and nerve damage in my neck, and a nervous system that forgot how to switch off. When your body is always braced against pain, rest stops coming easily. What finally helped me wasn't the clinical, fix-it kind of treatment. It was the opposite: slow, gentle, feather-light touch that quieted everything down and let me exhale for the first time in a long while.
I'm also wired to understand why. I studied biology at the University of New Mexico, went on to earn an MBA, and picked up a long list of certifications along the way, because I love building things that genuinely help people. After my injury, and after my two daughters were born, calming an overstimulated nervous system became more than a personal need. It became a fascination.
The science, the recovery, and a simple wish.
Feather & Fawn is what grew out of all of it: the science, the recovery, and the simple wish to hand that feeling to someone else. Here in the Sea-to-Sky, we push hard. This is the place built for the part that comes after, when you finally get to let go.
When I'm not building this, I'm with my family and friends, out running and biking, in the garden, deep in a DIY project, or making mobile apps. That is pretty much all of my time.
If your body has forgotten how to rest, come let us remind it.
