"I’ve been seeing Dr. Brauer throughout my pregnancy, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough! I started having awful lower back and hip pain, but she really helped. Dr. Brauer made sure I was comfortable every step of the way and she explained everything. Rey helped me schedule everything and answered all my questions... and I had a lot. I felt much better after 2 visits and continued until I gave birth. It truly made a huge difference in how I felt during my pregnancy, and I’m now feeling so much better and now bring my newborn!"

"I had been dealing with constant gut issues and headaches for years, and felt like my regular doctors couldn't give me any real answers. I didn't know a lot about functional medicine but I'm a true believer now. After starting with Dr. Emily's office, everything changed. I loved the holistic approached, and she identified my issues and got me on the right supplements and diet. My stomach issues improved, and my headaches almost completely disappeared. I can't thank her and her staff enough."

"I was nervous about getting my newborn adjusted, but after learning about the benefits from social media, we decided to give it a try. The experience was so different that what we expected. Dr. Brauer was so gentle and calming. Our son had some minor issues pooping and spitting up. We stayed consistent with her recommendations and saw a big improvement. I am so thankful for the gentle care and how reassuring the entire process was for our family."
Massage Therapy
Now Available
Hi, I’m Madelyn Breeding, a licensed massage therapist since December 2024, though I’ve been practicing since 2021. My journey into massage therapy comes from growing up in a holistic environment and discovering my passion for helping others. I’m certified in Myofascial Release and also trained in aromatherapy.
I live in O'Fallon, IL, and love staying active in the community, especially supporting events like the Brain Cancer Awareness and Fundraiser in May. I also enjoy attending local festivals and morning markets.
When I’m not working, I’m all about collecting unique antiques, gardening, and using my hands to care for people, plants, and local livestock with positive energy!
