Meet Brett Berner of Foundation Chiropractic

Today we’d like to introduce you to Brett Berner.

Hi Brett, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Meet Dr. Brett Berner, an Upper Cervical Chiropractor specializing in the Orthospinology procedure. He’s passionate about helping others live healthier lives through precise, gentle care—without cracking or twisting the spine.

His journey began at Palm Harbor University High School in a medical program that sparked his interest in healing. While earning his Bachelor’s at Florida State University, he discovered the powerful impact of Upper Cervical Chiropractic while shadowing local doctors, inspiring his career path.

Driven by compassion and a commitment to excellence, Dr. Berner combines advanced diagnostics with customized care to help patients restore their health naturally. He’s now a trusted leader in the field, known for delivering lasting results.

Dr. Brett Berner’s defining moment came during a college winter break when he found his father barely able to walk, relying on a cane due to severe low back pain from years of physical strain and military service. Wanting to help, Dr. Berner referred him to the Upper Cervical Chiropractor he had previously shadowed.

The diagnosis revealed an Atlas Obstruction—the root cause of the pain. After just one precise correction, his father walked out without his cane and never needed it again.

Witnessing this life-changing transformation inspired Dr. Berner to dedicate his life to Upper Cervical Chiropractic, helping others find lasting relief when all hope seems lost.

Dr. Brett Berner earned his Doctorate from the esteemed Palmer College of Chiropractic and is committed to making a meaningful impact in his community. With experience caring for patients of all ages—from newborns to seniors—he combines clinical expertise with a deep passion for natural healing.

A strong advocate for ketosis and intermittent fasting, Dr. Berner often shares his knowledge to help others improve their health through simple, sustainable lifestyle changes.

Originally practicing traditional chiropractic, he transitioned to Foundational Correction after witnessing the life-changing results his father experienced through Upper Cervical care. This precise, non-invasive technique avoids cracking or popping and allows him to help patients who feel they’ve run out of options finally find relief.

With thousands of hours of training, Dr. Berner specializes in managing chronic conditions and enhancing quality of life. He’s excited to serve the community and create lasting change through the power of Foundational Chiropractic care using the Upper Cervical Orthospinology procedure.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It wasn’t a smooth road. I opened my office in October 2020, right in the middle of COVID. We had to wear masks, space out the chairs in the lobby, and greet new patients with elbow bumps instead of handshakes.

Even with all the challenges, people still came. Many were searching for real solutions after traditional medical treatments failed to help. They wanted to feel better and take control of their health, and that’s exactly what we set out to do.

We’ve been impressed with Foundation Chiropractic, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Our chiropractic office takes a non-traditional approach to spinal correction. We focus on removing obstructions in the upper neck, relieving pressure from the brainstem, and allowing the body to heal itself naturally.

To restore balance and function, we incorporate spinal traction to rebuild proper curves and reduce forward head posture. We complement this with high-quality nutritional support, including omega-3s and natural anti-inflammatory supplements.

For faster recovery, we also utilize advanced technology such as Class IV cold laser therapy and Precision Shockwave treatments to reduce pain, inflammation, and tissue damage.

We love surprises, fun facts and unexpected stories. Is there something you can share that might surprise us?
Dr. Berner played rugby at Florida State University and has a lifelong background in martial arts, competing in karate tournaments throughout his youth before moving on to varsity football in high school.
