Meet Amanda.
The Heart Behind Deeply Rooted Healing.

I’m Amanda, the founder of Deeply Rooted Healing. In October 2022, I opened our doors in Ankeny, Iowa, and this year we celebrate three years of walking alongside families on their wellness journeys.

I am an Advanced Trained Nutrition Response Testing® Practitioner with clinical training from UNS in Clearwater, Florida, and a Bachelor of Nursing from Upper Iowa University.

My background includes pediatrics, public health, trauma informed care certified, breastfeeding education, and I am currently pursuing certification through the American Holistic Nurses Credentialing Corporation (AHNCC).

Your body was designed to heal. My role is simply to listen, guide, and support that natural process.

Our Mission: Healing From The Root Up

My passion for holistic care began with my own health struggles. For years, I battled depression, anxiety, weight gain, and Hashimoto’s disease. It wasn’t until I experienced the power of whole-food nutrition, functional medicine, and lifestyle changes that I began to heal. That personal journey inspired me to help others uncover the root causes of their symptoms and reclaim their health.

Today, my work focuses on educating and empowering patients. We address hidden stressors such as toxins, chemicals, mold, and pathogens through non-invasive muscle testing and personalized nutrition plans.

I am deeply grateful for the path that led me here, and it is my honor to help others find hope, balance, and lasting wellness.

Meet the Deeply Rooted Team

We can't wait to meet & support you!

Owner + Advanced Trained Nutrition Response Testing Practitioner

Hi, I’m Amanda, an Advanced Trained Nutrition Response Testing Practitioner with a Bachelor of Nursing from Upper Iowa University and clinical training from UNS in Clearwater, Florida.

My background includes pediatrics, public health, MBCE, and breastfeeding education, and I am currently pursuing certification through the American Holistic Nurses Credentialing Corporation (AHNCC).

My family's health journey led me to experience firsthand the healing power of whole-food nutrition and lifestyle changes, and inspired my passion for helping others address underlying stressors to symptoms affecting daily living.

I’m grateful for the path that brought me here, making me committed to guiding others on their own journey to healing.
