Experience Chiropractic 

I was lucky enough early on to shadow Dr. Brandie at Experience Chiropractic for a day, and to witness her approach to caring for pregnant and new moms. She's awesome! Dr. Brandie has created the Bloom Philosophy, a specialized way to treat pregnant people. She also utilizes the Webster Technique in her approach. I always refer her practice to clients looking for chiropractic support.
