Amanda Hamilton (director)
Amanda is a qualified nutritionist, broadcaster and bestselling author whose passion for her subject coupled with a refreshing down to earth approach have made her a media's favourite and respected practitioner.
She had the vision for what has now become CHRYSALIS HEALTH during a retreat in Thailand over 5 years ago and decided to sell up her home and move to Spain in order to put the dream to reality. The journey has encompassed her background in Nutritional Medicine, yoga, mind-body science and real results-based detox and her work has become the subject of numerous TV series and books.
She has handpicked the practitioners and therapists who make up the Chrysalis team and is still hands on at a large number of retreats. She remains the director at the helm of the company, working from the Edinburgh office and her focus remains on keeping the detox at the very forefront of integrated medicine.
You can also find Amanda presenting for BBC’s “Something for the Weekend” and as GMTV’s resident nutrition expert whereby she is currently developing a series for them titled “Inch Loss Island” which she will also be presenting.
Amanda is currently studying Ayurvedic Nutrition with the European Institute of Vedic Studies following an inspiring trip to India. She is a yoga devotee and is often found teaching detox clients impromptu postures during a retreat!
