Approach
Where the pain is, isn’t necessarily where the problem is.
Getting to the root of the pain and treating the dysfunction is Amanda’s goal. However, respecting each client’s level of comfort and helping them achieve their treatment goals is her main priority.
Personal
Amanda’s most favourite activity is hot yoga. She also enjoys activities that include time spent with family and friends such as canoeing, camping and cross-country skiing.
