Welcome to 100% Chiropractic St. Petersburg! I’m Dr. Robert Schaefer, and I’m delighted to be your chiropractor. My journey began in my hometown Berlin, Germany, where my grandfather, an orthopedic doctor, inspired my passion for helping others. My own introduction to chiropractic care happened in 7th grade after an injury. At that time, chiropractic care was relatively unknown in Germany, with only about 150 practitioners nationwide.
I remember vividly walking into the chiropractor’s office with a neck brace, unable to move my neck at all. After my first adjustment, I was amazed to have full mobility restored. I walked out without the neck brace, which felt like a miracle to me. That moment sparked my fascination with the body’s incredible ability to heal itself. My passion deepened about 1 year later when my mother faced a severely herniated disc. Traditional medical options offered little hope, but chiropractic care not only relieved her pain but also helped us understand the root cause of her condition. That was the moment I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to chiropractic care.
After high school, I pursued my dream at Life University in Atlanta, Georgia, graduating with honors in 2022 with a focus on corrective care. Additionally, I hold a bachelor's degree in Exercise Science, which has equipped me with a deep understanding of body mechanics and the principles of physical fitness. I am certified in Chiropractic BioPhysics and have attended numerous seminars, including the Webster Technique, International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), and extremity adjusting seminars. These certifications enable me to help a wide range of patients, from pregnant moms and infants to athletes and those with complex scoliosis and postural deformities.
I am a dedicated lifelong learner, continuously attending seminars and absorbing the latest research, staying actively involved in the evolution of chiropractic and other healthcare practices. I am consistently improving and refining my practice to offer the best possible care for my patients.
Outside of the office, I love exploring new places with my girlfriend, Alivia, and our cat, Mylo. We enjoy spending time at the beach, playing pickleball, and hanging out at the German-American society. Whether we're watching soccer or staying active, these moments help me recharge and stay balanced, just as I aim to help you achieve balance in your life.
I’m passionate about chiropractic care and am committed to empowering you through education and personalized treatment plans. I can’t wait to welcome you to the practice and support you on your journey to optimal health and healing at 100% Chiropractic St. Petersburg.
Are you looking for a chiropractor you can trust with your health and body? 100% Chiropractic provides chiropractic care for people of all ages—from infants to seniors. We believe in overall natural wellness care and long-term chiropractic corrective care to prevent the bigger aches, pains, and sicknesses. We also see time and time again how chiropractic care helps people improve their quality of life by reducing and even eliminating pain and improving range of motion, which is especially important after an accident or sports injury prompts chiropractic care. Some of the conditions chiropractic helps with are:
If you have been just coping with pain or have been meaning to find a chiropractor for wellness purposes, at 100% Chiropractic, we are your people. We treat each patient as an individual, finding out how we can serve each one and get their bodies to 100%. Several of our focuses are:
Wellness Care for the Family: We treat anyone, no matter what age. From a newborn infant to a senior citizen, each person can benefit from the stimulation of the nervous system and proper alignment that adjustments provide. Adjustments are tailored to each patient and their comfort level. Obviously, an adjustment on a newborn doesn’t look like an adjustment on someone training for a triathlon.
Corrective Chiropractic Care: Getting adjusted a few times can definitely help with immediate pain and subluxations, but to correctly heal the body so that long-term pain does not return and your body is functioning at 100%, we specialize in corrective chiropractic care. Corrective care is a process that resets the spine to its correct position on an incremental basis as opposed to waiting until you have a major injury or daily stresses, traumas, and toxins set in too much.
Accident and Sports Injury Chiropractic: Have you been in a car accident, had a rough fall, or sustained a sports injury? There can be serious repercussions to the body if your body heals from an accident without being in proper alignment first. After experiencing an accident or a sports injury, chiropractic services are essential as you might deal with pain daily if you don’t reinforce proper alignment through adjustments while healing.
Massage Therapy: Massage therapy and chiropractic care go hand-in-hand. If our chiropractors think your treatment could be enhanced by massage therapy, we will suggest you see one of our therapists to aid your healing.
At 100% Chiropractic, we want to make a change in our community. We strive to see our community members and patients feeling 100%. Whether that means they can get through the workday without a headache, run that race without an injury, or chase their toddlers around all day, we are committed to seeing success from your treatments. From your chronic pain to your one-time sports injury, our chiropractors are your resource for complete health and well-being.
Our motto is “100% Integrity, 100% Commitment, 100% Chiropractic.” We suggest the care you need to heal and maintain a healthy lifestyle depending on the cause of your pain, your goals for activity, and from reviewing x-rays of your spine if necessary. Our chiropractors are dedicated to our patients and are highly trained. Seeing people heal and maintain a healthy lifestyle is the biggest motivator here.
We know there are other chiropractors, and we are honored each time someone new chooses to walk into our office and trust their health to our chiropractors. We want to support our community by helping them stay active, reduce and eliminate pain, and teach them about wellness care instead of only looking to the medical community when they are sick. Come see us at 100% Chiropractic, and we will get you moving and living life at 100%.
This is an appointment request only. Your appointment will be confirmed when you hear back from us to verify the time and day. Thank you.
