(BALTIMORE, MD) — Polished Nichols Public Relations & Marketing (Polished Nichols), a full-service public relations, marketing and branding firm, announces the growth of its healthcare client portfolio with the addition of BC3 Technologies and Peake Movement. The twin duo will oversee account management, strategic planning and implementation, media relations, social media, collateral design and production, and partnership and community outreach.
BC3 Technologies, a Baltimore-based, minority-owned company revolutionizing emergency medical response and trauma care focuses on the development and commercialization of hemostatic products that help save lives.
Fueled by the recognition of a critical gap in emergency medical care and the urgent need for efficient management of life-threatening arterial bleeding, the company designed its patent-pending technology in the first and only FDA-cleared chitosan aerosol hemostatic wound spray, SEAL. Today, SEAL is being utilized by first responders, in surgical environments, by everyday consumers at home, work, or play, and in battlefield combat globally.
“As we experience the ever-growing need for SEAL to be in the hands of as many first responders, military, and everyday consumers to help reduce unnecessary hemorrhage deaths and save more lives during traumatic situations, we realized that it was essential to partner with a team who would drive a focused strategic marketing plan with all the right tactics,” said Wayne Grube, CEO and co-founder, BC3 Technologies. “From the initial kick off meeting, Polished Nichols proved that they understood our marketing needs and were dedicated to managing our communications plan.”
Peake Movement, a clinic offering assisted stretching, mobility and stability training services, was established in 2024 by experienced manual physical therapists, and movement and sports therapists. Its services are designed to enhance flexibility, mobility, and overall well-being. Peake Movement stretch services enable clients to learn proper movement patterns and understand their bodies and limitations. The personalized assisted stretch practices are created to meet clients’ desires to move with more fluidly with comfort and confidence. Services are provided at partner Peake Physical Therapy’s Timonium, Hunt Valley, and Coppermine at Bare Hills locations. Exclusive services are offered to members of the Maryland Club in Baltimore.
“Having worked with Polished Nichols in the past for marketing assistance with Peake Physical Therapy, we knew they were the perfect fit for us when we were launching Peake Movement. Their professionalism and thoughtful approach to all our marketing and communications demands, as well as their attention to detail and persistent account management have enabled us to focus on our daily roles while they enhance our brand,” said Dave Bender, founder of Peake Movement, and partner and co-owner of Peake Physical Therapy.
“As we celebrate a new year of business together, Nicole and I are incredibly grateful for the amazing clients we have the privilege of serving. Partnering with them has not only allowed us to contribute to their business and marketing success but has also given us the chance to grow and refine our skills across industries,” said Natalie Van Buskirk, Managing Partner, Polished Nichols Public Relations & Marketing. “Collaborating with clients in the healthcare sector is especially rewarding, as we help brands like BC3 raise awareness about saving lives and Peake Movement inspire individuals to live life to its fullest potential.”
