BRANDIE KEATES, DC | The Bloom Philosophy
Changing the Game: Merging Sports Medicine with Pregnancy Care. Over 25 years’ experience has garnered Dr. Brandie Keates acclaim as an industry visionary and vanguard in the world of pregnancy chiropractic care. She has made it her life’s mission to globally disrupt the prenatal care status quo by posing a simple thesis: if sports medicine acknowledges athletes’ unique requirements for physical care to allow their best performance during the game, then pregnant women must be able to expect the same during their pregnancies.
MONIKA MISAK, MD | ROSM

Her clinical focus includes the diagnosis and treatment of spine, joint, and musculoskeletal pain using minimally invasive, image-guided procedures.

Dr. Misak is committed to individualized care plans rooted in education, transparency, and shared decision-making. She partners closely with her patients to help them regain mobility, improve performance, and return to the activities that matter most.
