As one of only 94 Advanced Certified Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) practitioners in the United States, I’m thrilled to share how this cutting-edge, science-backed technique can transform your health. Whether you’re struggling with chronic back pain, neck stiffness, or simply want to stand taller and feel better, CBP offers a unique approach to chiropractic care that goes beyond temporary relief. Let’s dive into what makes CBP special, why it matters, and a simple at-home posture tip you can try today.
What is Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP)? Chiropractic BioPhysics, or CBP, is a highly advanced, evidence-based chiropractic technique that focuses on restoring your spine’s natural alignment and posture. Unlike traditional chiropractic care, which often targets pain relief through manual adjustments, CBP takes a big-picture approach. It uses principles from physics, biology, and anatomy to correct the root causes of spinal issues, such as poor posture, scoliosis, or chronic pain. CBP isn’t just about feeling better today—it’s about building a healthier spine for life.
Developed in the 1980s by Dr. Don Harrison and advanced by his son, Dr. Deed Harrison, CBP is backed by over 200 peer-reviewed studies. These studies show it can reduce pain by up to 50% in weeks, improve mobility, and even enhance overall wellness by optimizing nervous system function. At our Fairfax practice, we use precise tools like X-rays, postural assessments, and specialized traction equipment to analyze your spine’s alignment and create a personalized plan to restore it to its ideal shape.
Why CBP Stands Out You might be wondering, “What makes CBP different from other chiropractic methods?” The answer lies in its focus on structural correction. Think of your spine like the foundation of a house—if it’s misaligned, the whole structure suffers. CBP uses a method called “mirror-image adjustments,” where we gently position your body in the opposite of its abnormal posture to retrain and remodel the spine. We also incorporate customized traction and exercises to reinforce these changes. This scientific, whole-body approach makes CBP ideal for addressing complex issues like forward head posture (often called “tech neck”), scoliosis, or chronic headaches.
As one of just 94 Advanced Certified CBP practitioners in the U.S., I’ve undergone extensive training to deliver these precise, results-driven treatments. Here in Fairfax, we’re proud to bring this elite level of care to our community, helping patients not just feel better but live better.
The Benefits of CBP for Fairfax Residents Living in Fairfax, Virginia, you’re likely juggling a busy lifestyle—whether it’s commuting, working at a desk, or staying active. These daily habits can take a toll on your posture and spine. CBP offers benefits like:
- Pain Relief: Studies show CBP can significantly reduce back pain, neck pain, and headaches by correcting spinal misalignments.
- Improved Posture: CBP restores the natural curves of your spine, helping you stand taller and move more comfortably.
- Long-Term Health: By optimizing spinal alignment, CBP supports your nervous system, which controls everything from digestion to immune function.

Hold this position for 1-2 minutes daily to train your body to maintain better posture. Over time, this can reduce strain on your neck and back—perfect for those long hours at a desk or on your phone!
