Hi, I'm Amelia Lindberg. I am a licensed physical therapist in New York and a Certified Lymphedema Therapist. I have practiced physical therapy for over 15 years and have studied eating disorder recovery for over 20 years. I provide home health physical therapy to supplement individuals' eating disorder recovery.
My total-body approach addresses physical complications of disordered eating and body dysmorphia, including but not limited to:
- overuse injuries
- decreased bone density
- hemodynamic instability
- refeeding syndrome
- digestion complications
- chronic pain
- body dissociation
- sleep disturbances
- decreased lymphatic circulation
- muscle tension
- postural instability
My interventions may include but are not limited to:
- neuromuscular reeducation to improve posture, body alignment, diaphragm function, lung capacity
- myofascial release
- visceral manipulation
- vagus nerve mediation
- manual lymph drainage
- reintroduction to healthy exercise
My experience in acute care hospitals, combined with my ACLS certification, has equipped me to recognize life-threatening situations such as cardiac disturbances, DVT, refeeding syndrome, dehydration, stroke, and heart attacks.
Most importantly, my passion is to spark a love and appreciation for one's body. No matter how long you or your loved one have had an eating disorder, your body's genius is that it is always willing to adapt to the guidance you give it. I would be honored to help you get back on the right track.
