James Githens, LMT

Jamie was born and raised in Western New York, growing up in the town of Pittsford, where he graduated from Pittsford Sutherland in 2015. Growing up in a large, sports oriented family, he quickly fell in love with staying active and exploring any new physical activity that he discovered. Jamie’s father, Roger, a massage therapist of 20+ years, influenced him at an early age to take the best care of himself and his body that he possibly could. This ended up igniting his interest in the anatomy of the body, as well as how to keep it loose, healthy and feeling great. After many varying sports injuries, the help and rehabilitation provided by his massage therapist father solidified in Jamie that a career in the massage therapy field was all he wanted.

After graduating high school, he immediately enrolled in the New York Institute of Massage two weeks later at the age of 18. After graduating one year later, Jamie became one of the youngest professionally licensed massage therapists in the state of New York. His love for sports, hiking and anything outdoors have shaped his style of therapy to be focused on the rehabilitative side of the massage field. He is truly a people person who wants nothing more for his patients than to get back to the things they love to do in life.

When Jamie isn’t working he is probably playing basketball at his local gym, at home behind his drum kit, attending a concert or even out hiking at Letchworth State Park. He is an avid music, movie and all things pop culture lover.

Jamie is extremely excited to become a member of the team at Complete Care Chiropractic. Making a difference is people’s lives is always the most important thing to him. Seeing patients happy, healthy and back to doing the things they love is nothing short of the best reward the healthcare field can provide.

Amy Peterson, Chiropractic Assistant/Receptionist

Amy Peterson, Chiropractic Assistant/Receptionist Amy was born and raised in WNY. Growing up she was involved in swimming and gymnastics but you could often find her outside playing basketball, football, rollerblading or looking for animals or bugs to bring home as pets. While in college, Amy worked at an insurance company and studied to get her Life & Health license. After obtaining this license, she worked on their marketing team as an assistant and also ran the annuity department. Amy decided to leave this career to become a stay-at-home mother. Once her youngest was in school, she entered into the workforce again at a local school. There, she was an aide and also part of the Therapeutic Crisis Intervention Team, which is dedicated to helping children struggling to get through the school day or who were in full-blown crisis. Amy’s experience at Complete Care Chiropractic began a few years back when her son was diagnosed with a rare central nervous system disorder called CRPS. It left him unable to walk or go to school and he experienced extreme pain. The doctor’s at CCC were instrumental in getting him back on his feet and were able to provide some comfort while he was waiting to get into Boston Children’s Hospital. To watch him go from bed-ridden to being able to function was so life changing. CCC has been in her heart ever since. Today, he still receives treatment at CCC for flare-ups. Amy and her husband Steve, have been married for 15 years and have 2 boys and 1 dog (for now). She is a nature and animal lover and prefers to be outdoors, specifically in the woods. Winter is her absolute favorite season where you can find her cross country skiing or snowshoeing. Amy looks forward to helping those who walk through the doors of CCC and will always greet you with a smile.
