Scoliosis Treatment in St. Petersburg
Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with scoliosis in St. Petersburg, Florida? Looking for a natural, non-surgical way to improve posture, reduce discomfort, and support long-term spinal health? You’re not alone – and you’re in the right place.
Scoliosis is more than just a sideways curve in the spine – it can impact everything from posture and balance to breathing capacity, mobility, and self-confidence. Whether it was identified during adolescence or has gradually developed in adulthood, scoliosis often causes compensations that strain muscles, irritate nerves, and lead to long-term dysfunction if left unaddressed.
At Hood Chiropractic, we believe in treating the person, not just the curve. Dr. Christopher Hood is trained in Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP) – an advanced, research-backed method that focuses on spinal correction and structural balance. Our personalized approach aims to improve posture, enhance mobility, and provide lasting relief without the need for bracing or surgery. Each care plan is tailored to the individual and designed to support healthy spinal alignment over time.
Located in St. Petersburg and serving nearby communities including Gulfport, Kenneth City and Pinellas Park, Hood Chiropractic offers scoliosis care that’s compassionate, corrective, and rooted in results. Whether you’re managing scoliosis for yourself or your child, we’re here to help you feel more aligned, confident, and in control.

Did You Know?
Scoliosis affects about 2–3% of the population, and while it’s often diagnosed in adolescence, many cases continue to progress in adulthood if left untreated.

Our Approach
At Hood Chiropractic, scoliosis care starts with clarity. Dr. Chris and his team perform a detailed exam including digital posture analysis, full-spine X-rays, and structural assessments to identify the type and severity of scoliosis. From there, we build a customized treatment plan designed to stabilize, reduce, or even reverse the curve – depending on your unique case.
Treatment may include mirror-image spinal adjustments, corrective traction, neuromuscular re-education, and guided exercises. As a Chiropractic BioPhysics® provider, Dr. Chris uses techniques that go beyond traditional chiropractic to target spinal structure and long-term function.
We also work closely with teens and parents navigating scoliosis during key growth years, and adults looking to improve posture, reduce pain, or prevent curve progression. No matter your age or situation, we’ll support you with compassion, clarity, and a plan that prioritizes both structure and quality of life.
