My Story
Dr. Manning, DNP, APRN, FNP-C
Known just as A. or Dr. A was already a practicing Nurse Practitioner when she received care of her niece, at the time around 6 weeks old and permanently at 18 months. She had a very aggressive form of asthma, with recurrent bouts of pneumonia and eczema.
​
Amber, who was already interested in holistic care, became obsessed with the science of activating ones own healing mechanisms to help reverse and stop disease. Through a shift in diet, attention to mindfulness, reducing the body's stress responses, increasing movement and fitness, and optimizing sleep, she was able to reverse her illnesses and now asthma-free and can run a 9.5 min mile at 8-years old.
