“To say that [working with] Amanda changed my life is no exaggeration. When we first met, I explained to her that I felt like my abdominal core was missing. I had constant low back issues, could not bend down to pick anything up without bracing against a wall or a chair, and would often wake in the middle of the night with shooting pains from sleeping on my back. Amanda patiently guided me from a novice practice to where I am today - standing up straight, pain free, and with a strong, flexible spine. As a bonus to all of that, my heart is lighter after every session we have together because of her incredible spirit.”
