Bio

Amy Mayer OTD, OTR/L, RYT

Occupational Therapist, Author, Educator, Speaker

Hello! I've been practicing occupational therapy and integrating fascia into my clinical reasoning and treatment sessions for over 30 years. I authored a textbook for practitioners and still work with clients regularly. Additionally, I taught OT students in an OTD and POTD program for 18 years. Today, I teach live and online CE for OTPs and other health and wellness practitioners to help them integrate the science of fascia and fascia-targeting interventions into practice.
