"SOMA changed so much in my body and in my life. I do miss it very much. It´s hard to not fall in to your old routine and Amanda is so far away! I miss her terribly!"
-M.S. Age 12, Vienna, Austria

Like many of her clients, Amanda’s life may be considered in two parts: before and after SOMA Neuromuscular Integration. Her decade of dance and movement training and a career as a stage performer opened Amanda’s awareness to the intimate connection between body, mind and emotions; yet even given her keen insight, she was unable to break free of the clinical depression and chronic back pain she experienced for ten years. SOMA bodywork gave Amanda the key to unlock the places in her body that had been abandoned due to injury and trauma. Out of her own miraculous healing and growth, Amanda has created a fuller, more vibrant life that continues to flourish and unfold.

Her first-hand experience, as well as her work with many clients, including children and those with developmental disabilities, has affirmed Amanda’s trust in the beauty and wisdom inherent in each of us. Through her SOMA practice, Amanda invites you to consider yourself whole and unbroken, no matter your individual challenge, and to claim the full and unique richness of the life you are here to live.

"With Amanda, you know from the first moment that you are in the hands of a top SOMA professional. Nothing about her approach is mechanical. You really have the sense that in her hands your body becomes a work in progress. She proceeds with the confidence and precision of a skilled surgeon modulated by the artistic, intuitive sense of a fine musician. Amanda has a real gift for this work. Moreover she has a big heart and the genuine desire to bring profound life enhancing benefits to her clients. And at this she succeeds beautifully. I can't recommend Amanda too highly."
