No there isn't a way. You might be a little unporportional, but if it's really bad, your body just won't increase the length of the spine anymore, or it might increase arm size. I've never heard of anything like that happening, so I really can't give you a definite answer.

maybe he ment arms,cuz when ure constantly throwing punches at full force or semi full force,i guess the body tends to try to get used to it,or maybe ure elbow joint has microfractures and u can lengthen them before they heal or something i dunno,but i wudnt be surprised if they had massive hands too tho

What aj says is true. This is why by playing basketball/volleybal or swimming may increase your height. Coz your always stretching your body when you jump which in turns lengthens it.
