Spinal Care & Correction

I can’t say enough good things about this practice. They truly went above and beyond, even staying after hours to help me. I’ve been to chiropractors before, but this experience was different; they were incredibly thorough, took the time to review my scans with me. The adjustments were also much more precise than anything I’ve had done before. I’ve dealt with long-standing hip pain, and not only did he adjust my hip, but also my knee and ankle to address the full chain of movement. I felt immediate relief afterward. You can genuinely tell they care about their patients and take pride in what they do. Such an amazing family-owned practice, and I’m so grateful I found them.

Two adjustments and I haven’t felt this balanced in years! I had a hip replacement in 2010 and have worn a lift in my right shoe since. No lift and comfortable to walk barefoot for the first time in 15 years!

I have been going to Dr Marcos and Dr Brittany this entire year - they have made a huge difference to my body - not just relieving pain in my shoulder and hips but bringing my spine into much better alignment. I've never been to such a caring, careful and meticulous chiropractic office. The Gonstead technique is very precise and calculated and works miracles!

I have gone to chiropractors all over the country for 45 years. Gonstead Chiropractic is the very best clinic I have been to. Dr. Marcos’ training and expertise constantly impresses me. There are so many issues he is able to address that are not in the usual chiropractic purview. Within a few weeks of adjustments, X-rays show significant changes in my spine. I am so thankful to have found this clinic.

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!

Words do no justice to how AMAZING these two doctors provide healthcare to our child! Our 3 year old misaligned her hip and they were able to scan, analyze, develop a plan and execute a corrective treatment that worked. We are very thankful with Dr. Britanni and Dr. Marcos.

Amazing experience ! I take myself and 8 month old daughter and within a few weeks I’ve noticed a huge improvement in her mood and digestion issues. I had a lot of issues with my hips and felt like I could not get anyone to address the issue properly. Not only am I receiving the care I need but I got a detailed plan of how to go about solving the issue. 10/10!

I am impressed with the thoughtful and very conscientious approach given to my treatment plan. This is my first time going to a chiropractor and I am glad I went with the Gonstead System. I feel very informed, safe and confident in the hands of Dr. Marcos. After my first treatment on my neck my mobility has increased dramatically - I can't wait to continue!

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.

A month ago I came to Dr. Marcos in a lot of pain from a car accident almost a year ago. Went through treatment at another facility all they did was make me sit in chairs and move around, then I received several shots in my neck and lower back. Took the pain away for about three months, but when they wore off my pain came back with a vengeance. I suffered for months in tears every day until I went to see Dr Marcos. He thoroughly explained my X-rays to me and it showed how out of alignment my spine was. After my 1st treat with him I felt so much better. He is an amazing Chiropractor and he really cares about you as a patient. His goal was to make me better and he did! I am finally starting to feel like myself again. My only regret is I didn't go see him 1st after my accident! He is the best Chiropractor I have ever been to! 😊

Dr. Marcos is knowledgeable, technical, and skilled. He looks deep into the root of your problems and then creates a corrective plan. After two sessions I already feel much better, deepest back crack of my life. I have seen many chiropractors but so far am most impressed with him. His wife and the rest of the staff are very friendly and responsive.

This family owned and operated business is so great to work with! They have helped me multiple times gain control of my health and fix persistent neck and spine injuries. Once for vertigo, and again now for other issues. Thank you Gonstead team!

The place for results, trust, and support!! I have been going to Dr. Marcos over the past few months now and I can honestly say that my overall health and livelihood have improved significantly. I took a severe fall in my adolescent that led me to a build up of complications in the last 15 years. I struggled with sleep, migraines, constant pain and stress that have for the first time been relieved, while other doctors have recommended surgeries or medications instead of having immediate results that are working toward a long-lasting permanent improvement in my spine alignment and nervous system regulation. I cannot recommend this office and the supportive staff enough. I am forever grateful!!

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!!!

Joshua Wolfe

I'm a real patient with a pretty messed up body from head to toe. Dr. Marcos has done amazing things within the first three weeks getting me back to a more stable and functional spine along with a significant amount of pain reduction it's night and day. He is very nice and knowledgeable.

Dr Marcos does amazing evaluations & adjustments to get spine into alignment!

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!
