Cori Burdette
Chiropractic Team
My name is Cori and I’ve been a part of the Inspire Team since 2019, as an employee and a patient. My background was in fitness. I’ve always had a passion for fitness and nutrition since high school. I wanted to transition out of the fitness realm, but wanted to stay in the health space and that’s when I found our office. It was a perfect blend of what I love to do. Teach people about all aspects of health and still be one on one with patients.
In my time in the office I have had both my kids and have gotten them adjusted since they were born. I attribute a lot of their health and well-being to getting adjusted and the things I have learned while working in the office. Seeing full families is my favorite part of our office and watching the next generation learn what true health and vitality means!
Rachel
Chiropractic Team
Rachel became a part of the team at Inspire Family after being a patient in the office, experiencing healing in her own life, and falling in love with the practice and the mission.
After years of migraines and headaches that wouldn’t go away even with her 2 previous chiropractors, she found Inspire Family and decided to give it a shot.
She got adjusted and as well as changed her lifestyle and one by one her issues she struggled with for years went away. Migraines, neck pain, shoulder pain, sciatica, joint pain and even anxiety and depression. She knew this place was special and wanted to be a part of it. Through joining the mission it has helped her to embrace more of who she is and was meant to be. Encouraging others in this journey of health is her favorite part of the job.
Outside of the office you’ll find Rachel at a local coffee shop, going to the gym, driving many hours to go hiking out in the mountains, or flying home to Maine to be with her family.
Katie Sakovich
Chiropractic Team
Katie has been a part of the Inspire Team since mid 2022. Over the years, she has seen miraculous healing in her own health. She came into the office with frequent headaches and severe menstrual cramping that resulted in her taking tylenol/ibuprofen to ease the pain. With consistent chiropractic care, Katie has completely stopped taking all NSAIDS and has been medication-free!
Her favorite part about being in the office is seeing all the newborn babies get adjusted for the first time! Outside of the office, Katie enjoys spending time with family and being involved in multiple ministries at her church.
Aubrey Backus
Chiropractic Team
When Aubrey started at IFC in March 2021, she was in school for public health and had a large interest in nutrition. When she learned more about MaxLiving and the 5 Essentials, she was all in! Growing up she was always getting sick and thought that her constant headaches were a normal occurrence. MaxLiving gave her the hope she needed to turn her health around.
Since working at Inspire Family Chiropractic, she has completely uprooted her ideas about healthcare, gotten certified in nutrition, learned more about the toxins we expose ourselves to, bettered her understanding of the nervous system and the amazing power of the human body, and found a beautiful appreciation for doing hard things.
Aubrey is the clinic’s resident chaos coordinator! She strives to educate and empower patients about holistic health in the nutrition class she teaches. Outside of the office you will find her sweating at an F45 class, on a hike with her boyfriend and their puppy, or playing chess at a coffee shop.
