Amanda Sevilla, R.D.

Amanda finished her undergraduate degree in Nutrition and Dietetics at Loma Linda University and started working as a clinical dietitian shortly afterward. She is also certified in Plant Based Nutrition through the Center for Nutrition Studies. Through her undergrad, she developed an interest in overall wellness so she traveled to India to learn yoga. She has since gained 500 hours of teaching instruction as a new perspective on true, whole health and was inspired by the yogic lifestyle to study Ayurvedic Medicine, the sister science of Yoga. She is passionate about self love, development, and empowerment.

In her practice, she aims to help patients get to their wellness goals while also integrating preventative health with the experience she has gathered so far.
