Amanda McDonald
About
Amanda has a strong educational foundation, having completed her Master of Science in Physical Therapy and Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology, both from the University of Alberta. Her passion for sports and movement extends beyond her education, as Amanda played on both Milwaukee’s NCAA Division 1 and MacEwan U Sports Women’s Volleyball teams.
Her approach to physical therapy begins with a comprehensive assessment and is rooted in a patient-centered, holistic treatment philosophy. She works collaboratively with her patients, using evidence-based treatments, education, manual therapy, modalities, and active rehabilitation to empower them in creating lasting change. Amanda takes pride in treating a wide range of conditions and is committed to helping her patients achieve their unique health goals.
Outside of work, Amanda is an active individual who enjoys recreational volleyball, basketball, exploring Edmonton's food scene, and spending time with dogs!
