I brought my son to see Amanda for back/hip pain that was holding him back from running at his full potential. By now, 8 months later, my son just had his 9th session with Amanda. He is doing great! The pains are better and he is setting PRs at every race he enters. I have really appreciated Amanda’s knowledge and expertise over these months. She has used a multitude of different techniques and has prescribed many exercises. The end result - happy customer and his very happy mom! We are very grateful!

After years of neglecting hip and knee pain while running, I finally decided to try physical therapy. Amanda has realistic exercises and goals for busy people. While I didn't see results immediately (who does??), I'm so happy to get back to running pain free. I've completed my time with Amanda, but she has armed me with functional exercises to keep me moving. And, she's just generally good to be around!

After years of "hoping" the knee pain from an old injury would just heal itself and go away, it has. I finally did something about it: I found a PT to address the injury. Finding Amanda, who works with athletes, and after incorporating the progressive exercises into my evening routine, I have noticed a significant decrease in my knee pain, both while running and afterwards, when I try to get up from sitting at work for a few hours! Thank you Amanda for your compassion and knowledge.

After almost a year of pain in my hip and down the back of my leg, I finally decided to work with a PT. I’ve been working with Amanda for a few months now, and I’ve regained the ability to run without hurting for days afterwards. I appreciate that Amanda has tried multiple modalities of therapies with me, including massage, dry, needling, and strengthening exercises. I’m really excited to be able to run again thanks to Amanda!

As an advanced runner dealing with some nagging issues after running 60+ mile weeks for the past year, Amanda was exactly what I was looking for in a PT. She did an incredibly helpful thorough assessment and got me started with exercises that immediately addressed my weaknesses. Just 2 months later, and I'm running completely pain free again. Thank you Amanda!Update: 5 months after first seeing Amanda, and I just ran a sub-2:40 marathon with zero tendon pain or issues!! This was a 20 minute PR and would not have been possible without the guidance I received.

Dr. Amanda has been wonderful in helping my running to the point where I’ve had no more shin splints! I wasn’t even sure physical therapy was what I needed when I had my introductory appointment with her, but she has explained everything and answered all my questions! She has been so patient and listened whenever I shared concerns. Thank you!

She really works with you by writing a program that fits with your goals, feels manageable, and gets you back to doing the activities you love. She has a positive attitude and makes the drag of rehabbing an injury a lot more enjoyable.

Amanda was super helpful and very accommodating when I needed to reschedule a couple of times in a row. She was very thorough, offered detailed advice and recommendations, and was generally just a fun person to visit with during my session. It was refreshing to feel her individualized care after feeling frustrated with so many other generic and ultimately unhelpful PT experiences!

AMAZING!! Amanda took the time to listen to my frustrations and then created a plan to not only help with pain relief but also work on preventative care. I have never received this level of care through normal chiropractors or Physical Therapists. She is worth EVERY penny.
