Dr. Chris Crawford
I am Dr. Chris Crawford and it is such a pleasure to give chiropractic care and share my greater vision of healthcare with the St. Petersburg community. I began my journey in chiropractic when I was a young boy as a patient. I experienced great results and was amazed to learn that chiropractic was not only for pain but for getting the body balanced so that the nervous system can function correctly. I fell in love with the profession and have since dedicated my life to sharing the powerful message of chiropractic. My vision is to change healthcare in my community through educating, helping and inspiring as many people as possible.
I earned my Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Montevallo. Later that year, I began my post graduate studies at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, Florida. This is where I discovered beauty of the sunshine state and decided to make Florida my permeant home. While in school, I learned innovative techniques that are not only effective but are also safe and comfortable. I spent almost all my time learning and living the principles and philosophy of chiropractic. I dedicated myself not just with giving care to my community but to giving care to people all over the world for the greater vision of humanity.
I am excited about about having families of the St. Petersburg community into North Shore Chiropractic so they can learn about making better decisions about their health and the health of their loved ones. This office is dedicated to providing the most specific individual care to each patient so we can get their bodies functioning at its highest potential. I encourage you to come in our comfortable welcoming office so you can start your journey of heath the right way.
