Meet Dr. Michael Burns
Mike Burns earned his Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of New Brunswick in 2008 and his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in 2012. Now in his 15th year of practice, Mike brings a strong background in movement, rehabilitation, and hands-on care to his work with patients.
As the owner of Active Health Collective, Mike believes chiropractic care should be tailored to the individual. His approach considers not only a patient’s immediate concerns, but also movement, strength, function, and the activities that are important to them.
Mike works alongside the clinic’s kinesiologist, allowing chiropractic care and movement-based rehabilitation to complement one another when appropriate. This approach gives patients access to both hands-on treatment and individualized exercise and rehabilitation strategies within Active Health Collective.
Mike has completed McMaster University’s Medical Acupuncture Program and additional training in a range of treatment techniques. He is trained or certified in:
- Medical acupuncture
- IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation)
- ART (Active Release Technique)
- Graston Technique
- Functional Range Release
- Kinesiotaping
His combination of kinesiology education, chiropractic training, continuing education, and clinical experience allows him to draw from a range of approaches based on each patient’s assessment, needs, and goals.
Previously practicing at Purity Health & Wellness in Edmonton, Dr. Burns now welcomes patients at Active Health Collective, where he offers chiropractic care and a range of treatment approaches.
