The Founder’s Journey: Amanda and the Rise of Neurogenic Medicine
Before Amanda became a national expert and pioneering creator of Neurogenic Medicine, she was just another woman living with symptoms no one could explain—bone-deep fatigue, relentless gut issues, sleep that never restored her, and a nervous system in survival mode.
She sat across from doctor after doctor who looked at her charts and said everything appeared normal—even while her body screamed otherwise.
This was her call to adventure.
What began as a desperate search for answers became a deep descent into education and experience that would change not only her life but thousands of others. Amanda refused to accept the idea that her suffering was “just stress” or that prescription management was the only way forward. Instead, she dove headfirst into understanding the body’s hidden language.
Along the way, she faced her greatest trials—not just the illness itself, but the disillusionment with a system that dismissed complexity, separated mind from body, and ignored the deeper roots of dysfunction. But through it all, she kept asking: "Why is the body doing this? What is it trying to say?"
She turned that question into a quest.
Over 15 years, Amanda became one of the most credentialed functional health professionals in the country—earning a PhD in Natural Medicine, a Doctorate in Naturopathy, a Master’s in Clinical Nutrition with a specialty in trauma, and multiple certifications in brain health and genomics. But her true mastery came from decoding the patterns that conventional medicine missed.
As she healed herself, Amanda realized the body wasn’t broken. It was adaptive—responding to a nervous system that had been rewired by stress, trauma, and survival mechanisms.
This discovery became the foundation of Neurogenic Medicine—a new paradigm in proactive health that reveals how unresolved stress patterns in the nervous system silently drive chronic issues like eczema, hormone imbalances, fatigue, and gut dysfunction.
She didn't stop at her own recovery. Amanda built a clinic, trained a team, wrote 26 books, and developed a groundbreaking client assessment process that has now helped over 5,000 individuals discover and rewire the hidden triggers behind their symptoms.
Today, Amanda is more than a founder. She is a guide—a Wise and Compassionate Expert walking beside those who are ready to write a new chapter in their story. She helps clients who have tried everything else finally understand what's really going on inside their body—and what to do about it.
Her Mission Now
Amanda’s mission is not just to treat illness—it's to transform healthcare into a proactive, client-empowered system that honors the whole human story.
She helps people walk their own Hero's Journey—to face the shadow of their illness, reclaim their vitality, and rise with a deeper understanding of who they are.
Through Neurogenic Medicine, she teaches others how to decode their body's signals, rewire the patterns keeping them stuck, and step into their fullest life—healthier, wiser, and more whole than ever before.
Because Amanda knows: You aren’t broken. You’re becoming.
