Amber Anderson, Owner and Head Physical Therapist
Amber Anderson loves to help people regain control of their bladder and bowels, enjoy their sex life again, and finally defeat pelvic pain without questionable medications, risky surgery, or just learning to "live with it."
As a classic overachiever and mother of 3, Amber understands pelvic floor and core problems on a personal level. While working as a massage therapist in a pelvic rehab clinic, countless people told her of embarrassing conditions that were considered "normal," "part of life now," or fixable with "kegels." She heard saddening stories of adverse medication side effects, failed surgeries, and bouncing between medical providers without ever getting answers or relief. This experience, combined with her personal struggle and love of awkward conversation topics, drove her to pursue a doctorate, residency training, and board certification in pelvic health physical therapy. Frustrated by lack of quality care and long term solutions, she opened Restoration Health Collective to help patients get their body back once and for all! She understands how physically challenging, emotionally devastating, and socially isolating it can be to suffer in silence. Amber has figured out how to free people from the bondage of secret suffering with issues related to pee, poop, sex, prolapse, and pelvic pain when no other treatments help. Personal Details: When she's not in the office treating patients, reading scientific research, or teaching, she can be found chasing 3 kids, dancing with her husband, weightlifting, or sitting on a porch swing at False River.

Adair Hunt, PTA
As an athlete, coach, and therapist, Adair understands the importance of being able to do what you love, whether that be enjoying a vigorous game of tag with your family, holding with your grandchildren, or doing a high-intensity workout. Her focus is to help you get back to what you love and reach your full potential by making your body’s capacity big enough to handle whatever life throws at you.
Her approach involves breaking down the foundations of movement and cleaning up its patterns while providing clarity about the how and why. “It’s less about what workout or exercise you’re doing, but more importantly HOW you’re doing it.” She has a gift of being able to give you one specific cue that finally lets everything click in your brain AND body. She loves to find the holes in your movement patterns and fix them during your time together. Adair Hunt specializes in using functional fitness techniques to get her patients back in control of their own lives without medications, high-risk surgeries, or simply learning to “live with it." There is a time and place for mat exercises, small pink weights, and little stretchy bands, but her favorite thing is having patients mimic real life activities like getting off the ground with your hands full, moving garden mulch, or practicing putting kids in the car with 100 bags on your arm. Moving like you do in daily life and under heavy load is the most transformative skill to take away from any therapy session you attend. When she isn’t in the office getting patients back into top shape she can be found in the gym perfecting her own technique or hanging out with her fiance Stacy, dog daughter Dixie, or her “stepcat” Samson. Beyond her numerous certifications, she has practiced her skills in various settings including outpatient orthopedics, home health PT, assisted living facilities, and outpatient pelvic health. Due to her wide range of experience, Adair is especially skilled at meeting each client where they are in their treatment journey, regardless of their fitness background, and helping them reach their health and wellness goals. “Everyone starts somewhere and I’m just proud you’re moving.” Adair's Fun Facts:
