Amanda has been practicing as a physical therapist since 2000 between and among Massachusetts, Illinois, and the United Kingdom. She started evaluating and treating patients who suffered from pelvic floor muscle dysfunction right away, during her Advanced Practicum of her Master’s Program, in 2000-2001. Amanda has always been mentored by many great physical therapists and she will always be very fortunate for that.
