Hyperkyphosis (Hunchback Posture) in Lithia FL

Hyperkyphosis & Hunchback Posture Correction with Chiropractic BioPhysics® in Lithia, FL

Hyperkyphosis, often referred to as “hunchback posture,” is more than just a cosmetic concern. Excessive rounding of the mid-back can contribute to pain, stiffness, and fatigue while also impairing breathing capacity, balance, and mobility. Research shows that hyperkyphosis is associated with increased risk of falls, decreased quality of life, and even reduced lifespan in older adults https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15086651/

At STRONGLIFE Chiropractic and Physical Therapy, we take a corrective approach using Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP®)—the most research-backed method for improving spinal alignment. Through targeted Mirror-Image® exercises, spinal traction, and postural adjustments, we work to gradually remodel the thoracic spine and restore healthier alignment. Studies have shown that CBP® protocols can significantly reduce thoracic hyperkyphosis, improving both posture and health outcomes https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28533594/.  Unlike temporary symptom-based care, CBP® focuses on correcting the structural cause of the problem for long-term results.

Correcting hyperkyphosis provides both cosmetic and health benefits. Patients often notice they look taller, more confident, and more youthful. Just as importantly, improvements in spinal alignment reduce pain, enhance breathing, and restore balance and mobility. By addressing the root cause of poor posture, our goal at STRONGLIFE is to help patients not only feel better, but also move better, breathe easier, and enjoy a longer, healthier life.
