A Clinic Dedicated to Root Cause Care

Cerebral Chiropractic Center in St. Petersburg is dedicated to the evaluation and care of complex neurological conditions. We frequently work with patients experiencing migraines, vertigo, dysautonomia, POTS, mild traumatic brain injury, and other challenging disorders. Many of our patients have sought solutions elsewhere before coming here, and our mission is to provide the expertise, clarity, and advanced care required to address these conditions at their source.

Our doctors are nationally recognized speakers, published authors, and continuing education providers for healthcare professionals across the country. As brain health experts and craniocervical specialists, they bring both clinical authority and teaching experience to every case. This combination allows us not only to care for individual patients but also to contribute to raising the standard of care nationwide.

We specialize in identifying and correcting the primary breakdowns that interfere with nervous system function. In many cases, these involve impaired nerve communication between the brain and body at the brainstem, disruptions in blood flow into or out of the brain, or compromised cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow and filtration. When these processes are altered, the effects can cascade into brain fog, headaches, dizziness, neurological decline, and, in severe cases, the early signs of neurodegeneration. By addressing these issues directly, our doctors help restore balance to the nervous system so the brain can function as it was designed to.

To do this, we use the Advanced Orthogonal Method, a sound wave–based corrective technology that allows us to deliver safe, gentle, and precise adjustments to the craniocervical junction. This technique avoids the twisting, popping, and cracking associated with traditional chiropractic care, focusing instead on precision and consistency. While the technology itself is advanced, what makes the difference is the philosophy behind it. We believe lasting outcomes are possible only when the root cause of dysfunction is identified and corrected. That is why every patient experience begins with a process of discovery, designed to uncover the true source of the problem and create a clear, individualized plan for correction and recovery.

At Cerebral Chiropractic Center, our role is to help patients and families understand what is happening within the nervous system and why it matters. For many, this is the first time they have been given clear answers that connect their symptoms to an underlying cause. Our mission is to bring that clarity, deliver expert care, and provide a realistic path forward.
