Amber Pederson Verna, DC, CFMP

Dr. Amber graduated from the prestigious Palmer College of Chiropractic with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree. During school, she developed a passion for nutrition and lifestyle medicine. “It was like I had blinders on. As I continued to learn more about nutrition, I looked back at what I had eaten as a young adult and was shocked! At the time, I thought I was eating relatively “healthy”. This awakening spurred a thirst for knowledge that has yet to seize.” This new awakening lead her to post-graduate studies at Functional Medicine University. Dr. Amber is a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (CFMP).

In addition to her extensive knowledge, Dr. Amber is also quite gifted in handling the emotional aspects of health. She is honored to create a safe space for people to open up and heal. Dr. Amber sees you as a Whole Person and will help you to the best of her ability through multiple modalities. She has always prioritized listening to the story of each patient that walks through her door and actively involves them in their plan of care. 

Dr. Amber also offers energy healing in the form of Reiki. She is a Certified Reiki Master. “I chose to offer Reiki because I believe one must work on healing the energetic, emotional, and spiritual body before one can truly heal the physical body. This has been where much of my own healing journey has taken place so it holds a special place in my heart.”

Dr. Amber takes great pride in educating her patients so they do not continue to make the mistakes of their past and can instead feel empowered to make better decisions as they continue their health journey. “My goal as a practitioner is to educate my patients. I want to give them the knowledge and tools to go out into the world and live the healthiest, happiest, and most abundant lives possible.”

Her vast postgraduate training consists of several hundred hours of studies in energy medicine, functional medicine, lifestyle medicine, nutrition, functional neurology, functional endocrinology, and functional blood chemistry. Dr. Amber’s Wholistic Health & Wellness protocols include reiki, natural supplementation, nutrition and lifestyle medicine, and providing you with the right education, tools, and support.
