Services
Back pain, whether acute or chronic, is a common condition that affects a significant portion of the population. Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive approach to treat various causes of back pain. From disc issues to muscle strains, our chiropractic treatments are designed to alleviate discomfort and help you regain a healthy, active lifestyle. 
Headaches, particularly migraines, can drastically affect your quality of life, leaving you unable to function. While medication may provide temporary relief, it doesnt address the root cause. At our clinic, we identify the structural issues responsible for your pain and offer lasting chiropractic treatments that focus on long-term solutions and holistic healing. 
Chronic neck pain can prevent you from enjoying everyday activities, and it often leads to further complications like muscle weakness and headaches. At our practice, we focus on identifying the exact source of your pain and providing gentle spinal adjustments to correct misalignments. Our approach promotes lasting relief and overall wellness. 
If you experience pain traveling down your back and legs, you may be suffering from sciatica, which is caused by the compression of the sciatic nerve. Chiropractic care focuses on relieving pressure on this nerve by adjusting the spine, which can result in significant pain reduction and improved mobility. 
Electrical Muscle Stimulation is a highly effective treatment for supporting the bodys natural healing process. By applying a mild electrical current to damaged soft tissue or muscles, it helps reduce inflammation and release trigger points. This method is ideal for treating muscle spasms in the neck or back, enabling quick relief and restoring muscle function. 
When treating patients, Dr. Gregory King evaluates each case individually. While X-rays are not routinely requested, they can offer valuable information in certain situations, revealing issues not detectable through standard chiropractic assessments. This diagnostic tool can be essential in developing an effective and personalized treatment approach.

I was referred to Dr. King after mentioning my issue with a pinched nerve to my primary care team. He listened while I explained everything and we tackled two primary issues in my shoulder and lower back. I walked out the first day already feeling a little better. Dr. King and his team genuinely care and listen during every visit. I would highly recommend him to anyone - this was my first time seeing a chiropractor and appreciate all he is doing for me.

I would completely recommend Dr. King. I am very skeptical of chiropractors, however, I was in the worst pain I have ever been in when I started seeing him. Again, being skeptical that these visits would work, I had to choose treatments or being in excruciating pain. I chose to stick with the protocol that Dr. King recommended based on my initial evaluation. I wasnt feeling better as soon as I wanted, but had to trust and keep going. I did. Today, (after 12 visits) I feel SO much better and I am no longer in pain! Thank you!

For nearly 7 years Ive experienced severe neck and upper back pain. Ive had many doctor visits and tried physical therapy and generic chiropractors who all addressed the pain temporarily, not the source. Dr. King was able to identify the problem and in just 15 visits got me feeling like my old self again. After just a few visits, I experienced my first day in 7 years with no pain!
After my 15 visits, Ive regained my mobility and strength back in my neck and shoulders. Dr. King is definitely the best chiropractor who has treated me. He is knowledgeable, skilled, professional, and all around just a great guy. I highly recommend his services at OptimumHealth!

Where has this place been my whole life. I have been to many chiropractors and Mr. King is the best of the best. I will bring my kids and husband here. Talia was also the Navy Seal of the front desk. She is empathetic and on top of her game! We will be lifelong patients. Please everyone come visit this place once- you will not be disappointed

I've been a patient of Dr. King for several years now. When I started I was having consistent back pain that other chiropractors had not been able to help with. It only took a month or two with Dr. King before I was feeling much better. I love that I don't have to make an appt. and rarely have to wait to be seen, I love that there is no high-pressure sales for an expensive package like other chiropractors have done and I love the therapy tables! Rachel is great too. :

I've only been to Dr. King for 2 weeks, but he already has me walking pain-free! We have a treatment plan in place and you can bet I'll be following his orders! I'll GLADLY recommend Dr. King to anyone that will listen! Not only is he great, but Rachel is wonderful and they both listen to what's going on with you - sincerely listen, not just hear what they want to and rush your visit! You won't be disappointed if you choose to make an appointment!

Dr. King is awesome. He really cares about you as a person, instead of just worrying about getting your money. I was in a tractor trailer wreck last week, and he has helped me along the process of healing. Rachael, his assistant is always a sweetheart too. It's just a great environment and they really work with you every step of the way.

I have been going to Dr. King since moving to Georgia in 2013. I have chronic lower back pain and some headaches. Once Dr. King was able to stablize the pain, my condition greatly improved. I am now on maintenence and visiting him once a week. He is a fantastic doctor and I would not go anywhere else for my chiropractic care.

I have seen Dr. Gregory King at Backsmart Chiropractic over the past several years, he most always gets me out of the pain I experience with the neck and spine, he will recommend other care if he can't help you in a reasonable treatment time. He uses decompression when needed, never keeping you more than 15 minutes but making sure you feel less pain before you leave, the staff greets you with a smile. I recommend Dr. King highly for your chiropractic needs.

I have been going to Dr. King on-and-off for a few years now and all I can say is that the man is a magician. I have had some fairly serious back issues in the past and Dr. King has always made the issues go away. I always feel like a new person after every normal adjustment. I wouldn't think of ever going to another Chiropractic office if someone paid me to go! Absolute Greatness!

I recently moved here from Houston, Texas. I was receiving regular treatment for Sciatica pain. I was starting to have discomfort again, when I found Dr. King's office. Jennifer was extremely helpful, and my first appointment helped me tremendously. I saw Dr. King regularly every week until I felt normal again. I prefer this treatment over injections I received in Houston by a pain specialist. I prefer to go the natural healing over pills and shots. This office is extremely helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend Dr. King.

A couple of months ago I walked in Dr. King's practice with an awful and painful lower back issue. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with professionalism and a sincere desire to provide me some relief to the pain I was encountering. After going through a consultation and x-rays, I then had my first adjustment where I found immediate pain relief. I was placed on a weekly program that lasted a month. Now, thankfully, my pain is gone. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. King and his staff. You will not be disappointed.

Back pain is a debilitating experience affecting every area of life. Those that can offer relief will always find their way into our hearts. Dr. King is more than capable when it comes to relieving the pain, but I appreciate that he desires a better quality of life for his patients. He offers clear explanations of the issues that contribute to the discomfort as well as options for correcting them. This is done in a personal way and in a relaxed setting. If you're facing daily or even occasional back pain, I would encourage you to pay Dr. King a visit.

The care that Dr. King gives is wonderful! He is extremely thorough and he does well with follow up. He was quick to work me in for my first consultation (lower back pain, neck pain, etc.) and we worked out a treatment plan that continues to improve my health. Jennifer, his office manager, is very organized and knowledgeable about the financial aspect of your visits.
They make it very easy to work out a payment plan that works best for you. I believe in the quality care Dr. King gives and am now taking my two daughters, ages 7 and 4. They both enjoy going to Dr. King for their adjustments and he does a great job explaining to them what he is doing. You will not be disappointed in the quality service you receive at Backsmart Health!

Dr. King and his staff have created a pleasant and well run office. I couldn't be more pleased with the service and the results I received in my course of treatment. One of the best experiences I've had with health care in general, and specifically chiropractic treatment. I highly recommend Dr. King and Backsmart Health.
