So over the past 6 years Dr. Amanda has dedicated her post-graduate studies learning the most advanced and evidence-based practice techniques, including trigger-point dry needling and spinal manipulation. She enjoys working with her patients to design a specific exercise program that gets them out of pain, recovering and performing even better than before they came to see her. She has worked primarily in the the outpatient orthopedic setting treating a variety of musculoskeletal conditions and sports related injuries. Her practice methods and values are rooted in collaborating with her patients, utilizing one-on-one hands on care, and treating the entire person to reach their goals.
In 2018 Dr. Amanda Zarriello opened up her own practice in her hometown, Cranston, RI.
