Dr. Burke is a Certified Medical Examiner and performs DOT exams. She practices evidence based Chiropractic and uses a variety of techniques. With each visit she performs a combination of traditional or low force spinal manipulation, flexion distraction for lumbar disc issues, myofacial release and therapeutic exercises.
Dr. Burke has certifications in Graston Technique, Kinesio taping and Cranial Sacral Therapy. Her philosophy is to restore proper biomechanics to help her patients have optimal function. She helps them maintain their structural balance with proper ergonomics and home exercises.
Dr. Burke was born and raised on Nantucket. In her spare time she enjoys spending time outdoors with her family and riding horses.
She graduated from New England School of Acupuncture with a concentration of orthopedic style needling, focusing on pain management treatment protocols. This treatment approach mirrors her internship work for the Veteran Affairs Hospital at the Edith Roger VA Hospital, where she focused on treating PTSD, pain, addictions and mental health disabilities. Her further experience and research extends to women’s health and hormones, such as PCOS, endometriosis, menopause, fertility, PMDD and other PMS-related symptoms. Her own personal experience of dealing with hormonal issues is what led her into her acupuncture journey as an alternative method of healing. Her treatment style incorporates a mixture of acupuncture, cupping, supplements, diet and other lifestyle recommendations.
