Meet the doctors


Dr. Nikki Amaro, PT, DPT, PCES

Dr. Amaro is an orthopedic doctor of physical therapy specializing in pregnancy and postpartum corrective exercise.

She is an Orange County native. She graduated from Cal State Long Beach with her B.S. in Kinesiology: Exercise Science. She met Dr. Henderson at Chapman University while getting her Doctorate of Physical Therapy, where they both tutored anatomy to first semester PT and PA students. She has worked in outpatient orthopedics treating patients from age 3-93, but she is passionate about empowering and educating new moms to take care of themselves through exercise.

She is a mom of three, and truly understands how challenging it can be to return to exercise postpartum, and wants to help other moms find their way. 

In her free time, you can find Dr. Amaro at the beach with her family, exploring new parks in the area, or barbecuing and hanging out with friends.
