About Us
Dr. Breyleigh Gegelman
I grew up in a small town in western North Dakota, where my early years were filled with various sporting activities, including basketball, football and track and field. An injury during my athletic pursuits introduced me to the world of chiropractic care, igniting my ambition to pursue this profession. My personal experience as a patient inspired me to help others recover from injuries, maintain their health, and lead pain-free lives.
I began my academic journey at the University of North Dakota, graduating in 2017 with a degree in Kinesiology. This foundational education paved the way for my further studies at Northwestern Health Sciences in Bloomington, Minnesota, where I earned my Doctor of Chiropractic degree with a sports emphasis in 2020. For four years, I practiced as an associate doctor, honing my skills and gaining invaluable insight into patient care. In 2025, I was ready to take the next step in my career and found an opportunity I couldn’t miss out on.
