Dr. Amanda is top notch! State of the art technology combined with her knowledge and expertise, will provide you with exactly what your body needs to heal and recover, then maintain an improved state of health and wellness. She provides education so you understand what is going on, what you need and makes you part of her family, as does her office staff. So blessed to have found her!

Dr Amanda is kind, patient and most importantly very knowledgeable in her field! I've been to many chiropractors, she will now be my last. A world of difference in 1 visit, sore but my body was so out of sync in many ways. I look fwd to seeing the improvements through treatment so I can heal and avoid surgery and cont'd pain

Dr. Amanda is so much fun! She and all of the office staff are kind and enjoyable to be around. After only a few weeks of visits, I’m experiencing tremendous improvement - I have fewer headaches and feel better in general. Visits are quick, effective, and enjoyable. I feel very cared for and welcome each time I’m there - I couldn’t recommend more!

My fourth baby is almost 4 months old and has been screaming since she was a few weeks old. And not just a baby who’s uncomfortable, a baby who was hurting. We couldn’t figure out why. Dietary changes, formula, medication. Nothing helped. I took her to Amanda off of a recommendation. It’s been two weeks and this baby is a new person. She hasn’t cried in pain since! We went to California for a long weekend and actually enjoyed ourselves! She was happy! She slept throughout the night without writhing in pain. She started smiling and laughing for the first time! I never knew babies could go

Friendly and supportive. Truly feel they care about your health and you as a person. Staff was warm and welcoming and no pressure sales. Dr Amanda is just amazing and so personable! They think about your needs beyond just in the office. They even provided an ice pack to use at home for any minor tenderness. I feel great and as weird as it sounds looking forward to my next appointment.

I stopped in without an appt. as I was desperately in need of an adjustment. They were able to accommodate me in a short amount of time. I left feeling like a new woman! Thanks so much for being able to work me in...😊❤️😊

Dr. Amanda works magic! I have been seeing her weekly for three months now (2 of which I was pregnant for) and truly feel the benefits. This was my second pregnancy and I really felt that my adjustments helped me get through the end of a very difficult pregnancy and recover much more quickly.
I love how closely Dr. Amanda listens to your problems at every visit and addresses all of them. I never feel rushed and always leave feeling so much better. The pricing is very reasonable and scheduling is flexible as well.
You can feel the passion Dr. Amanda has for her profession and her incredible energy

I didn't really understand the benefits of chiropractic treatment until Dr. Amanda. Her gentle yet effective treatments help me keep up my active lifestyle. The office is warm and inviting, and the staff is wonderful. Highly recommended.

Dr. Amanda helped me in just two sessions with my hips and back and helped create room for my breech baby to turn. Her office is incredibly comfortable, warm and inviting. I highly recommend Life is Good Chiropractic for all of your chiropractic needs.

I have been seeing Dr. Amanda Smickles for a little over a year now. I called desperately seeking an appointment after my back went out. Sweet Connie answered the phone and they got me on the same day. I can't begin to tell you how much better my neck and back feel a year later. I have narrowing of the spine in my neck and bulging disks. When I would have a flare up,!I would not be able to move my neck for days. Seeing Amanda once a week has changed my life! Her staff is wonderful and they feel like family.

Upon moving to Tucson this year I became troubled with stiff neck and back. I was unsure where to try for a treatment but liked the look of "life is good chiropractic " website. When I went for my first visit I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly personal service. I was a stranger here but once. Amanda diagnosed my pain and went to work. I am busy every day golfing, walking and hiking so it was important to get back to peak shape. I am feeling much better and look forward to tuneup visits. I throughly recommend Amanda and her team.

I had never been to a chiropractor before so I was a bit apprehensive about what to expect. Amanda makes you feel completely comfortable and explains everything thoroughly before beginning any procedure. Her and her staff provide so much positivity and leave you feeling so much better than when you walked in. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing chiropractor.

Dr. Amanda is fantastic! Both my husband and I have seen her as first time Chiropractic patients, and are now believers. If you want to feel better after an injury, she is the person to see. Kind, smart, and effective, Dr. Amanda is exceptional!

This is an update to my prior review. Dr. Amanda called me and was very kind and explained that the day I saw her, it was extremely busy due to some rather devastating personal stresses she has faced in the last two months. She said she took my review seriously and that I did not get the best of her that day. She counseled me on how to ask a chiropractor for what I needed. She offered me a free session to show as an apology. Very nice and ethical. I appreciated her follow up call.

My boyfriend has a history of back issues, and I finally convinced him to see a chiropractor after getting a groupon for Life is Good.

We've been amazed with how great Dr.Amanda has been. She's not only been a blessing for my boyfriend's health, but she's always very upbeat and likes to get to know her clients on a personal level. We willingly drive 45 minutes there and back every week for an adjustment.

We enjoy coming in, and her waiting room is always packed with happy clients. They have a great, affordable intro package, so if you're wavering about going to see

After a disastrous experience at The Joint (see my one-star review), I came here and Amanda fixed me right up. I am from out of town, and I receive regular chiropractic adjustments while at home. Amanda may be the best chiropractor I have ever seen. If I lived in Tucson she would be my first choice.

Fantastic health care provider. I have been to other chiropractors who are rough and only want your money. Dr. Amanda is nothing like my previous chiropractic experiences. She is gentle, caring, and very skilled. She has signifigantly helped my health and is always able to fit me in. I would highly recommend her!!

I agree with the two previous reviewers before me in that Dr. Amanda is gentle but effective, knowledgeable and cutting edge, and just an all around groovy gal! I'm a massage therapist and I need her awesomeness to continue provide quality care for my clients. Thank you, Dr. Amanda!

So most of you all who are patients of Amanda know my story, but let me give you an abridged version: I'm patient number 18, and I've been a patient for... going on three years. Amanda and Joel found me at work in desperate need of a chiropractor and seeing as I'm patient number 18, I've been benefiting from adjustments for a good while.

I've been to chiropractors before. I was once a one-time patient of Dr. Lay's, but then he sold his business to another chiropractor who wasn't as good or as friendly and that, as they say, was the end of that.

And then
