Amy Ward
A 17-year veteran of the health and wellness space, Amy holds numerous certifications from her time as a Fitness Trainer. Her role as a military spouse brought her skills to several parts of the country, serving hundreds of clients through one-on-one training, group training, High Plains Boot Camp, TRX classes, Spinning classes, and wellness consultations. She also worked on two NIH-funded studies as a research assistant at Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine.
Amy hit pause on her professional evolution back in 2016, choosing to stay home with her first child after another cross-country move. Although coaching was enjoyable, it was no longer her passion. It was at this time she began reflecting on what she wanted next.
Thanks to treatment in 2018 from an incredible, multi-faceted Physical Therapist, Amy began to consider an often overlooked aspect of wellness: our energies within. What “stuff” from our past gets “stuck”? How do these stuck energies affect our health and keep us from healing? Keep us from thriving? Why do certain things affect certain parts of the body? How can we help process and move them along? Amy’s PT shared quite a few books on this subject, which led to a veritable rabbit hole of related texts.
Enter The Emotion Code® in 2019. Although not the same method that the PT employed during treatment, this book resonated with Amy. She cautiously began practicing the techniques on herself and was hooked. She later researched practitioners and connected with one in her home state of Colorado. Together they made major headway with Amy’s thirty-year history of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Ulcerative Colitis) and brought joy and patience back into her role as a mother. In 2023, Amy became fully certified in both The Emotion Code® and The Body Code®.
Amy is excited to share these modalities with clients of all ages and backgrounds. She truly believes that everyone can benefit from this form of energy work, whether they think they need healing or not. She even works on animals!
