Dr. Brandie has dedicated her career to changing how pregnant women are cared for—clinically, systemically, and culturally.
With more than two decades of hands-on clinical experience, Dr. Brandie’s background spans emergency medicine as a paramedic, formal chiropractic education, sports chiropractic training, and private practice ownership. Across these settings, one truth became impossible to ignore: pregnancy care was falling short—especially for women in pain.
That realization, combined with her own difficult pregnancies, became the turning point. Dr. Brandie went on to open Bloom Sanctuary, a practice designed exclusively to care for pregnant and postpartum patients and built to meet the real biomechanical, neurological, and physical demands of pregnancy.
Dr. Brandie blends advanced prenatal training with sports medicine principles to treat pregnant bodies with the same precision and respect given to elite athletes. She has been certified by the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association since 2002 and developed a distinct prenatal standard of care known as The Bloom Philosophy™, now practiced by Bloom-trained providers.
In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Brandie is a sought-after educator and speaker, teaching providers across the country how to deliver safer, more effective pregnancy and postpartum care. Her talks challenge outdated prenatal narratives, translate complex biomechanics and physiology into practical clinical application, and equip providers with clear frameworks they can use immediately in practice.
Today, The Bloom Philosophy™ is helping redefine prenatal care worldwide. It is the foundation of Dr. Brandie’s book, What You Don’t Expect When You’re Expecting, which introduces the Villains of Pregnancy framework, and it underpins her live trainings, professional courses, and patient education programs.
Dr. Brandie’s work has been recognized with multiple honors, including the High Honor of Clinical Excellence Award from Cleveland University–Kansas City, the President’s Award for Service from The Pediatric Group, the PCA President’s Service Award, the Main Line Parent Love Award, and the U.S. Small Business Administration’s 2023 Woman-Owned Small Business of the Year for Eastern Pennsylvania.
At the center of Dr. Brandie’s work are her two children, whose early health challenges reshaped her understanding of care, resilience, and advocacy. Their experience reinforced what she sees daily in practice: women deserve better support during pregnancy—not dismissal, not normalization of pain, and not “just get through it” medicine.
Dr. Brandie’s mission is clear and unwavering: to provide expert, evidence-informed care through every chapter of motherhood—and to end the belief that pain is simply something women must endure.
