Amanda Hamilton

Amanda is one of the leading Nutritionists and Detox experts in the UK.

Her detox Spa is the subject of the hugely successful series The Spa of Embarrassing Illnesses for which she is presenter and co-producer. It is in production for its third series this summer.

She recently opened her first BODYMIND detox clinic in Glasgow where physical and mental therapies are combined.
