Gonstead Chiropractic of Florida in Sarasota, FL

Renuska Papalexiou

I’ve had an exceptional experience with the Gonstead Chiropractic of Florida, in Sarasota since beginning care in August 2025. I originally came in with one specific concern, but through Dr. Marcos thorough evaluation it became clear that the issue was part of a broader biomechanical chain in the body. What I appreciate most is that the care here focuses on addressing underlying patterns rather than simply treating isolated symptoms. Dr. Marcos provides precise and thoughtful chiropractic adjustments with a level of attentiveness and knowledge that immediately inspires confidence. He takes the time to explain what is happening in your body, answer questions, and guide you through the treatment process so you fully understand the care you’re receiving. Appointments are never rushed, and the patience and dedicated time given to each patient truly set this chiropractic office apart. The entire team contributes to a welcoming and well-run practice. From Jonathan to Paige and Alivia, everyone is professional, kind, and genuinely focused on patient care. The office runs smoothly, and every visit reflects a high level of organization and warmth. It has also been wonderful to see the practice grow under the leadership of Dr. Marcos and Dr. Brittani. Their partnership and shared commitment to patient wellbeing clearly shape the culture of the clinic. If you’re looking for thoughtful, comprehensive Gonstead Chiropractic care in Sarasota, this practice is truly exceptional. I’m incredibly grateful for the care I’ve received here and would confidently recommend them to anyone seeking patient-centered chiropractic care delivered by a team that genuinely cares.

This family owned Gonstead Chiropractic office is just what was missing in Sarasota in the health industry. A higher level of care. I am so thankful that this team setup shop here and would recommend them to everyone. Dr. And Dr. Perivolaris have extended education behind them and truly care about the health of the patient as well as getting to the root cause. After having some severe issues with migraines and vertigo, a plan was put in place and a path to healing was created. The staff are extremely friendly and this is a very kid friendly office.

Dr. Marcos listens to me and asks questions (i.e., he takes his time) to ensure he understands what's going on and how to provide the best care. Since starting treatment, my headaches have less frequent and my hip is almost completely pain free. If you're in the Sarasota area and need chiropractic care, let Dr. Marcos help you on your health journey.

I can't say enough great things about Doctors Marcos and Brittani at Gonstead Chiropractic in Sarasota. For over 2 months I had been suffering from a lack of mobility and pain in my neck that was also traveling down into my shoulders, forearms and wrists. I went to two other chiropractors to no avail. In fact, I think they made my situation worse. Dr. Marcos did a thorough physical and verbal evaluation as well as full spine X-rays that revealed how messed up my spine was. In that same first visit, Dr. Marcos was able to adjust my neck providing almost immediate relief! No other chiropractor had been able to do that!!! Everyone there is caring and very considerate and truly want to help you heal. I highly recommend them!

Best chiropractors I've ever been to! Im in love with what these two doctors are doing!! So grateful they brought gonstead chiropractics to Sarasota. I completed a 8 week protocol and so happy I followed through. I feel like a reset button was hit. You don't just feel the difference, you can see it on the X-rays. No fluff- real results. They take the time, their heart is in it. They truly want you to feel your best. This is the place. Book the appointment- your worth it and so are they.

This is my follow up review from my previous post. I have had over 100 adjustments to correct 65 years of poor posture, untreated injuries and plain aches and pains. My current adjustments are in refining the vertebrae align so that I am reaching optimum health. A recent thorough blood test at a medical center confirms it. I do not take any medication even thought I am over 70. I am a personal witness to the Gonstead Chiropractic code that the human body has everything it needs to heal provided and this is a BIG IF, the brain, nervous system (i.e. vertebrae's), organs, glands, muscles, tissues, and ever part of the body is functioning at full capacity which I can now attest would be almost impossible without proper Gonstead Chiropractic care from Dr Marcos Perivolaris. I may sound like a missionary on a quest, in my own way I am for I have seen and felt the difference in my life. I hope you step over your skepticism to try it and see for yourself rather than listening to people who are not qualified to advise you properly. 5/10/2025 I wanted to wait until my initial set of sessions were completed so I can give more comprehensive review. First I have been under chiropractic care since 2006 and will state that I have never had such an intensive and complete examination by a chiropractor like Dr Marcos Perivolaris of Gonstead Chiropractic of Sarasota. Furthermore, the treatments were very different in that instead of just pushing down or turning the vertebrae, Dr Marcos had a definite vector in which he move the vertebrae while closing looking at the extensive X-rays he had done initially. This meant that he was directing the vertebrae into it "original normal" position so that the body can heal itself. The results speak for themselves. Every area of my health that was blocked by the subluxation of vertebraes are showing noticeable improvement such as urinating better, better bowel movements, better sleep cycles, less aches and pains after long walks, and many other symptoms. If you are suffering from nerve pains or have health issues, you owe it to your self to make an appointment with Dr Marcos.

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Marcos at Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Sarasota for the outstanding care I received. When I visited two days ago, I was experiencing severe pain and limited mobility, making everyday activities challenging. Fortunately, the first adjustment brought noticeable improvement, and Dr. Marcos's thorough scans, x-rays, and adjustments have me feeling significantly better. Thank you very much!!!! Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Sarasota Thank you to Dr. Koca Chiropractic Clinic as well for the referral!

I injured my back while staying in Sarasota Fl and needed an adjustment. I found Dr. Marcos at Gonstead Chiropractic of Sarasota. After 2 adjustments I was back on the golf course. Extremely happy with my treatment. Thank You Dr Marcos and staff.

My husband and I arrived in Sarasota on a Tuesday after a 3 day trip driving from our home in New Hampshire. My chiropractor from home already connected w Dr. Marcos’ office regarding my previous chiropractic care for hip pain and I had an appointment for that Thursday as a follow up. By Wednesday after a very uncomfortable first night I found myself in excruciating pain and called Dr. Marcos’ office asking if he could possibly fit me in that day in addition to my existing appointment on Thursday. Sam answered the phone and my introduction to the incredibly professional, caring, thorough, thoughtful and knowledgeable staff at Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Sarasota began. Not only was Dr. Marcos able to see me but he gave me 2 hours of his undivided attention giving me what was really an initial consultation with an adjustment at the end to at least give me some relief overnight. The following day I saw Dr. Marcos for another 2 hours to thoroughly go over the previous day’s test results and x-ray evaluation. He explained the Gonstead Chiropractic method in a way that helped me understand what he recommended for treatment. He answered every one of my questions thoroughly and patiently. He never made me feel rushed or overwhelmed. He explained in detail exactly what and why he was doing that day for my adjustments. I then made appointments for the following week. I have never felt more sincerely cared for in a doctor’s office!!! From Sam’s attentive manner on the phone and in the office to Dr. Marcos’ remarkably knowledgeable and thorough examination to the overall warm and welcoming office environment, it was an absolute pleasure despite the pain I was in. I left confident my health care was in very good hands! I cannot thank them nor recommend them highly enough! Thank you!!!

Dr. Marcos at Gonstead Chiropractic in Sarasota relieved me of the dizzy spells I was having. Tried the Epley maneuver several times, with no effect. But Dr. Marcos, with his careful evaluation of the spinal subluxations carefully treated the areas and hooray! I have no more dizzy spells. Would definitely recommend him for any ailments before seeing your regular doctor. Many thanks, Dr. Marcos!!!

As a dental hygienist I have a physically demanding job. Dr. Marcos and Dr. Brittani help me maintain my spine and reduce pain. I have seen chiropractors in the past (even ones that practiced the Gonstead method), and no one has practiced chiropractic with so much attention to detail as it is done here! 10/10 recommend Gonstead Chiropractic of Sarasota!!!

Angie Riportella-Hoog

If you want to be educated on and need Ciropractic care ! I recommend you get in the office and start your journey to a healthier and more untuned life.

My husband and I are so happy that a practice that uses the Gonstead method has finally opened up in Sarasota! We both agree that it's amazing how a small adjustment to the spine makes such a big difference in the way we feel! The Gonstead method of treating spine issues is gentle and very precise. Dr. Marcos and Dr. Brittani focus their treatment on the specific areas in the spine that are causing each patient's discomfort and adjust the spine so it is back in alignment, and they do this as painlessly and accurately as possible--and IT WORKS! Before we began our treatment, the doctors took extensive x-rays to determine exactly where the spinal misalignments were located, and they explained in detail the process they were going to use. We never felt rushed--both doctors are very accommodating with their time. My husband and I are thrilled with the care we are receiving at Gonstead Chiropractic in Sarasota and cannot recommend these chiropractors highly enough! Great job, Drs. Brittani and Marcos! You are exceptional!

I recently visited Gonstead Chiropractic in Sarasota Florida, and I couldn't be happier with the care I received. Dr. Marcos and his team are knowledgeable, compassionate, and skilled. They took the time to listen to my concerns and assess my needs, and they worked with me to develop a personalized treatment plan that has helped me feel better than I have in years. The clinic itself is clean, modern, and welcoming, with a friendly and professional atmosphere that immediately put me at ease. The staff is always courteous and helpful, and they go out of their way to make sure that every patient feels comfortable and well-cared for. Overall, I highly recommend Gonstead Chiropractic to anyone in Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch who is looking for high-quality chiropractic care.

Dr Marco es un experto en su campo, el me ayudó con un dolor crónico que llevaba desde el 2016, había ido a diferentes quiroprácticos, terapistas físicos, ortopedas, y no había encontrado una solución duradera. El realizó su análisis y con su sistema de medición y radiografías me mostró mi problema, lo entendí y aprendí que tenía que hacer para lograr resultados duraderos. Sus manos expertas me están ayudando a sanar y me siento renovado, con deseos de salir y ejercitarme de nuevo. Me cambió la vida. No es un quiropráctico cualquiera. Viajo 2 horas para verlo por que vale la pena estar al cuidado de un quiropráctico correctivo específico. Mil gracias Gonstead Clinic Of Chiropractic Sarasota.

Dr Marcos & Dr B are truly amazing. I've never felt more comfortable than I do when I am seen by them. It started off as adjustments to help with adhd and emotional regulation for our 6 year old son.. the adjustments also helped with digestive issues he had and led to better performance with sports. Seeing how knowledgeable and caring they were led to both my husband and I getting regular adjustments. This helped me personally with back pain, hip pain and daily headaches. So when our 2 year old daughter ended up with a double ear infection, it was a no-brainer to have her seen by them. After just a few adjustments, her ear infection was cleared up and we were able to avoid medications. Both Dr Marcos and Dr B were always super gentle and always explained what they were doing to help each one of us feel more comfortable during every adjustment. They truly care about your needs. Sarasota is lucky to have these two as a part of the community.

I was referred to Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Sarasota by my hometown doctor, since I spend significant time in Florida when the weather turns cold. I'm glad I listened. Dr. Brittani was an absolute joy. She is very informed and after talking to me about my medical history was able to continue my treatment as if I had been going to her for years. Its nice knowing that I have access to doctors that practice Gonstead technique while I'm down here. Definitely recommend!!

These guys are phenomenal! Sarasota is super blessed to have them serving the community! May God bless them and their family!
