Her clinical practice, Flourish Physical Therapy, is located in Boston's Back Bay.

Dustienne weaves yoga, mindfulness, and breathwork into her clinical practice, having received her yoga teacher certification through the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in 2005.

Dustienne's love of movement carried over into her physical therapy and yoga practice, stemming from her previous career as a professional dancer. She danced professionally in New York City for several years, most notably with the national tour of Fosse. She bridged her dance and physical therapy backgrounds working for Physioarts, who contracted her to work backstage at various Broadway shows and for Radio City Christmas Spectacular. She is currently an assistant professor of jazz dance at Boston Conservatory at Berklee.

Dustienne passionately believes in the integration of physical therapy and yoga within a holistic model of care. Her course aims to provide therapists and patients with an additional resource centered on supporting the nervous system and enhancing patient self-efficacy.
