Q&A with Amy
Why did you become a physical therapist?
I took an interest test in high school and it said was best suited to be a PT. Who knew an interest test could be so spot on?
What can patients expect when they see you in the clinic?
A unique blend of traditional and alternative hands on care. Education and guidance on nervous system calming to achieve the best therapeutic results.
When you’re not working, what do you like to do for fun?
I enjoy reading and listening to books that I learn something from. I get out in nature any moment I can; working in my garden, walks with friends and my dog, exploring state and national parks with my family.
What are your favorite ways of staying healthy?
Any outside activity whether it is biking, roller blading, walking, hiking, or yoga at Lake Harriet in the summer. In the winter we go downhill skiing as a family any chance we can get and play outside with my dog, who loves the snow. Meditation is also very important to me and is a daily goal.
Where is your hometown?
Shoreview, MN
As a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I remember playing “school” a lot. I still enjoy teaching and learning.
What is your favorite thing about living in Minnesota?
My family lives here, which allows me to spend time with them. I love the seasons and the lakes.
