What Can Chiropractic BioPhysics Treat?
Chiropractic BioPhysics®, or CBP®, is a specialized chiropractic technique focused on improving posture, spinal alignment, and natural spinal curvature. Care may combine chiropractic adjustments, corrective exercises, and spinal traction based on the patient’s specific postural and structural needs.
CBP® was developed rather than discovered. The technique was named in December 1980 by Dr. Donald Harrison, Dr. Deanne Harrison, and Dr. Daniel Murphy. Its original name referred to the application of principles of physics to human biology and chiropractic care. The technique and its corrective methods were expanded and refined over the following decades. CBP® is effective for a wide range of spinal issues, particularly chronic and structural problems, such as:
What Our Patients Are Saying
How Chiropractic BioPhysics Works
Unlike a quick adjustment alone, CBP® uses repeated, gentle correction over time. This may help reduce strain on the muscles and joints, improve mobility, and support better spinal function.
Your provider begins by evaluating how you stand, move, and hold your head, shoulders, and pelvis. When appropriate, X-rays may also be used to measure the natural curves of your spine.
Your treatment plan may include:
- Corrective exercises to strengthen postural muscles and retrain how your body holds itself.
- Spinal traction to gently stretch and guide the spine toward a healthier position.
- Chiropractic adjustments to improve joint movement and reduce stiffness.
- Posture and lifestyle guidance to help you maintain progress during daily activities.
CBP® is best suited for people with posture-related problems and certain neck, back, or spine-related conditions. A proper examination is needed to determine whether it is appropriate for you.

Chiropractic BioPhysics FAQs
Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) is an advanced, research-based approach focusing on correcting and restoring the optimal structure of the spine and posture. Unlike traditional chiropractic focused on temporary pain relief, CBP aims to treat the root cause—structural misalignment—using physics, geometry, and engineering principles to remodel the spine back to its ideal shape. Backed by over 315 peer-reviewed research papers, it's often described as an "orthodontist for the spine."
CBP is effective for conditions stemming from poor structural alignment, including chronic neck and back pain, forward head posture ("tech neck"), scoliosis, herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, headaches, migraines, and arthritis. Research demonstrates significant improvements in cervical disc height and decreased disability following CBP treatment at Waterfront Chiropractic.
A typical CBP treatment plan uses a three-pronged approach: Mirror Image® adjustments positioning the spine opposite to misalignment, spinal traction using specialized equipment, and corrective exercises to retrain muscles. Treatment plans typically involve 3-4 sessions per week with follow-up X-rays after about 36 sessions.
Traditional chiropractic focuses on short-term symptom relief, while CBP focuses on long-term structural correction, restoring natural spinal curves. CBP combines adjustments with Mirror Image® exercises, specialized traction, and corrective exercise protocols, using detailed X-ray and 3D postural analysis for precision rather than relying primarily on palpation.
Yes, CBP is one of the most researched chiropractic techniques with over 350 peer-reviewed publications. Studies document significant improvements in spinal alignment (60% improvement), reversal of cervical kyphosis, restoration of cervical disc height, and lasting structural correction even in patients who failed standard care.
Yes, CBP is safe when performed by a trained, certified practitioner. It is recognized as one of the safest non-drug, non-invasive healthcare forms, involving no invasive procedures or surgery. CBP focuses on therapeutic, comfortable techniques that promote natural, holistic healing at our Huntington chiropractic center.
Most patients experience some pain relief after the first session. Highly noticeable, lasting results typically take around 36 visits (3 sessions weekly for 12 weeks). It has taken years to damage the spine, so correcting it back to its optimal shape takes time and patience.
Your first CBP appointment includes a full-spine 3D posture analysis and specific X-rays, analyzed with precise mathematical measurements to identify structural deformities. This objective analysis allows our chiropractor to create a customized treatment protocol with mathematical precision to track your progress.
