After a wonderful year filled with sunshine and amazing food, she moved to Boston to be closer to her family. Her clinical practice, Flourish Physical Therapy, is located in lively Copley Square. She is a board certified women’s health clinical specialist recognized by the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties. Dustienne weaves yoga postures and breathing into her clinical practice, having received her yoga teacher certification through the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health.
