Trusted Allies in Health

We offer a collaborative, multi-professional approach during your preconception journey. Our team of doctors and functional medicine practitioners have over two decades of combined clinical experience working with parents like you. 

Chiropractic adjustments remove the interference blocking the nerve communication to your reproductive organs and other organs. This gives your body and brain the ability to support your immune system and help regulate your hormones, resulting in a more optimal balanced body and brain.

We have devoted hours of continuing education in preconception care to help give you the best care and outcome possible during your time in our office.

We base our practice on the current data and literature surrounding pregnancy, birth, and pediatrics, and serve as the primary research center for pregnancy and pediatric chiropractic in both the US and internationally.

Allison

"My husband and I were trying to conceive our second child for a year and a half before I went to Amanda for her functional medicine services."
Why they came to Mama's
"Amanda found where my levels were and where they needed to be for optimal fertile functioning. We switched some things up, changed what supplements I was taking and added in a few fertility-boosting activities and before we knew it, we were pregnant with our second child."
How we helped
"To say Amanda knows her stuff would be an understatement. I have never been to a provider who wants to dig deep to find the root of my issues."
