Dr. Amanda rodriguez
NATUROPATHIC DOCTOR
LICENSED ACUPUNCTURIST
I became a provider because...
- Growing up I was a student athlete all of my life. I was involved in multiple sports and knew early on I had an interest in the body and health. As a teenager, I experienced my own depression, irritable bowel syndrome and imbalance hormones which ultimately led me down a path of transformational inner healing. My interest in health turned into passion which continued through my college and postgraduate education.
About Me:
- My medical specialities include digestive disorders, metabolic health, hormones, mental health, physical medicine, sports medicine, autoimmune diseases and regenerative medicine. I hold certifications in Cranio-sacral therapy, visceral manipulation, IV therapy and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) joint therapy. Nutrition, botanical medicine, acupuncture, detoxification, structural alignment, homeopathy, emotional release techniques, strength and conditioning exercises and nutritive IVs are therapies I incorporate when treating patients.
- Outside of the office I am a yoga instructor, breathwork facilitator, and I lead meditations! I attended the University of California Santa Barbara on a Track and Field Scholarship, setting the school record in the 400 hurdles! Throughout my years in division one college athletics, I came to know what it meant to strive for optimum health through proper nutrition, supplementation, hydration and lifestyle choices. I found joy working on my performance, and I knew that I wanted to help others achieve physical and mental alignment.
