About the Staff

Dr. Megan (Burgess) Kohler, DC

Chiropractor | Owner

Dr. Megan (Burgess) Kohler, DC is a St. Pete native who attended The Canterbury School of Florida, and then went on to play Division I volleyball for Binghamton University in Binghamton, NY. She attended chiropractic school at National University of Health Sciences in Pinellas Park, FL, where she also became certified in acupuncture. Dr. (Burgess) Kohler graduated in 2020 and since then has worked as an associate doctor at local chiropractic practices where she has gained hands-on experience with chiropractic care, acupuncture, dry needling, nutrition, and rehabilitation.

Dr. (Burgess) Kohler came to know chiropractic for the first time while in high school. She played competitive volleyball and sustained a shoulder injury her junior year that kept her from playing the end of her season. For the injury, she saw a chiropractor for the first time and was blown away with the knowledge and skills that came with the profession. Her shoulder was healed in less than a month and has not given her problems since. This was the event that led to Dr. (Burgess) Kohler’s decision to start the journey of becoming a doctor of chiropractic.

Dr. (Burgess) Kohler understands the importance of continuing her education throughout her career to stay up to date with the latest research and tools that can better help her patients. Since graduating, Dr. (Burgess) Kohler has become full body certified in Active Release Technique (ART). ART is a soft tissue technique that is non-invasive and precisely engineered to locate and quickly resolve soft tissue disorders. She has also become certified in Dry Needling through the Integrative Dry Needling Institute. This institute teaches neurologic dry needling, which targets the nerves in the body that can cause neurologic and musculoskeletal pain. It is a very effective tool in treating many pain conditions.

Dr. (Burgess) Kohler is very passionate about health, nutrition, and fitness and wants to instill the importance of these key pillars of health to her patients. In her free time, Dr. (Burgess) Kohler enjoys working out, going to the beach, and spending time with family and friends.

“Dr. (Burgess) Kohler has been helping me with my back and neck pain for a couple years now. She has helped me get a ton of relief through adjustments, acupuncture, shockwave, and more. She even helped me during my pregnancy by adjusting my low back and sacrum. When I was full term she did acupuncture to help induce my labor and less than 12 hours later I was having contractions, and less then 48 hours later I had my baby! She has even given my baby the proper adjustments to help with gas and constipation and it has been successful multiple times! I highly recommend Dr. (Burgess) Kohler as anyone’s chiropractor!”

“Dr. Megan is an outstanding chiropractor whose passion and knowledge for health optimization is evident in the effective treatments she provides for her patients. Her expertise is drawn from her personal experience as a college athlete, many years of intensive schooling, as well as the certifications she sought out to provide the best care for her patients. Dr. Megan applies the best techniques from both Eastern & Western medicine, provides nutrition consultation, and has a full understanding of anatomy in order help her patients not only reduce pain, but achieve elite wellness.”

“Dr. (Burgess) Kohler is one of a kind. Not only did she help me, my wife, and my daughter but she also was able to travel to our home and work within our busy schedule. She is very professional and has a wealth of knowledge. I would highly recommend Dr. (Burgess) Kohler as she will go above and beyond for her patients!”

“Being a very active person my whole life, I was introduced to chiropractic care at a young age and have worked with many chiropractors over the past decade. Dr. (Burgess) Kohler separates herself from the rest as she really looks at you as holistically and addresses your specific needs to decrease pain and increase quality of life. She is not the type of chiropractor that adjusts you and sends you on your way, she uses a variety of tools and manual techniques to ensure she is addressing everything the best she can and educates you on things to do at home to help. Dr. (Burgess) Kohler also uses acupuncture and dry needling techniques that have done wonders for my knee and back pain. Since working with Dr. (Burgess) Kohler the past year and a half, she has helped me address back pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, and neck pain that has allowed me to run faster, lift heavier, and live life to the fullest.”
