You can ask any woman who has experienced the amazing journey of pregnancy — it comes with ups and downs, highs and lows, and a heavy dose of aches and pains. If you are currently making your way down this nine-month road or hope to be soon, it’s good to know there’s help out there to make it all a little less of a pain in the butt — literally.

Dr. Brandie Keates, formerly of Experience Chiropractic, (updated 2026: currently founder and clinical director of Bloom Sanctuary in Paoli, Pennsylvania) created Bloom Main Line in 2007, a chiropractic practice designed specifically for women who are pregnant and looking to ease some pain and discomfort. Bloom was created around the idea that women should enjoy every part of their pregnancy, and should be able to receive the proper care they deserve.

A Patient-First Approach to Prenatal Care

The first part of that care is the relationship with the patient. At Experience Chiropractic, you’re introduced to everyone with a handshake and a smile. Dr. Brandie places her clients needs and problems first — every client is special, and every client is a friend. If you’re new to the world of chiropractic health, the staff will explain everything in detail. Her goal to make every client feel better when they leave than they did when they walked in is not easy. But with hundreds of success stories, five star ratings, and raving reviews on her website and in her office — Bloom Main Line has become a place for moms to feel whole again.

Specialized Training and Customized Treatment

So what makes Bloom so special? Dr. Brandie and her staff provide one-of-a-kind service for women during their pregnancy and beyond. They also provide treatment to help moms and their baby transition through the postpartum stage. New clients will receive a customized treatment plan for their specific needs, which can address common pregnancy and postpartum issues like migraines, back pain, groin pain, or back discomfort. Dr. Brandie is also among the select few chiropractors in the region certified by the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association for the specialized treatment of pregnancy and pediatrics (ICPA), and also certified to perform the Webster Technique.

Dr. Brandie believes she should not be the only one helping you during your pregnancy. She will work simultaneously with your OB and/or midwife to ensure your care is in sync no matter whose office you are in. During your initial consultation, she will also explain massage techniques for you and your partner can use at home.  Prior to becoming a chiropractor she was a paramedic where she helped deliver 10 babies prior to starting her own company.

Why Prenatal Chiropractic Care Matters

Dr. Brandie believes strongly that, “pregnancy should be a time of joy, not discomfort. When you look back on those nine months you should only remember the happy times. It is normal and common to have aches and pains in pregnancy, but it is not normal at all to be debilitated by them.” Regular prenatal chiropractic care can result in a comfortable pregnancy with pain relief, a quicker delivery (score!), and optimal fetal positioning. It is 100% safe for you and your child, and a great, holistic way to experience a more positive pregnancy. Dr. Brandie, and all of her colleagues, have heavy sports medicine training that they apply to pregnant woman to help remove pain and get them back to the things they need to do in their life.

Happy with your current chiropractor but interested in the pregnancy care Dr. Brandie can provide? Bloom Main Line doctors will “adopt” you as a new client during your pregnancy and assist with your transition back to our regular chiropractor when you’ve reached your postpartum goals. Need one more perk? They are in-network with most insurances.

Dr. Brandie has won multiple Main Line Parent LOVE Awards for  her hard work and commitment to taking care of pregnant patients.
