For those dealing with back pain, chiropractic care can be a highly effective treatment option. Whether you experience acute or chronic pain, various factors such as disc problems, muscle strains, or spinal misalignments could be contributing to your discomfort. Our treatments aim to identify and treat the root causes, helping you return to pain-free living. 
Headaches and migraines can result from structural imbalances in the spine that affect nerve function. Rather than masking the symptoms with medication, our chiropractic treatments focus on restoring alignment to alleviate the underlying causes of your pain. We take a holistic approach to ensure lasting relief and improve your overall health. 
Experiencing neck pain can make everyday tasks feel unbearable. It often leads to difficulties in movement, muscle weakness, and even headaches. Our chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing the root cause of your pain and providing an effective, holistic treatment. Through spinal adjustments, we aim to relieve pain and restore long-term health. 
For individuals dealing with sciatica, chiropractic care offers a holistic solution that targets the root cause of nerve compression. By addressing spinal misalignments, chiropractors can reduce pain and prevent further nerve damage, offering patients a pathway to recovery and improved quality of life. 
Using Electrical Muscle Stimulation, we provide a non-invasive solution to help patients recover from muscle injuries and alleviate pain. This therapy uses electrical impulses to reduce muscle spasms, ease discomfort, and stimulate healing. It is particularly effective for muscle re-education and preventing muscle atrophy during the recovery process. 
An X-ray may be recommended when a thorough chiropractic evaluation indicates the need for further insight. Dr. King uses this tool to identify spinal misalignments and other skeletal issues that could affect your overall health. This step ensures a more accurate treatment plan and promotes faster recovery from pain.

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!

Dr. Gregory King is magnificent. I know the reputation chiropractors can have. Treatment is never done, keep coming back. That is not Dr. Kings methodology. He believes in working in conjunction with MDs and seeking true relief. He guides the process preparing the patient for what may need to be the next steps for healing. I will continue to see Dr. King for all my chiropractic needs.

I went back and forth to the E.R. due a 9/10 pain, and after 3 days at the hospital with strong pain killers delivered trough my I.V, the physicians let me go home with strong pains prescriptions that just were a Band-Aid and told me to follow up with my family doctor. I was desperate because I could not still move and was not able to go back to work which put me into the jeopardize of losing my job, and therefore my health insurance.
I was looking for a chiropractor and found Dr. King that was being voted for 3 years in a raw the best chiropractor in Forsyth County. He is the BEST, REALLY the BEST of the BEST because within 48 hours and after 2 visits in his office my 9/10 back pain was gone. I didnt need my pain killers anymore! He recommended more sessions that took care of my back and neck discomfort that I had for many years with a holistic approach. I definitely recommend Dr. king and his friendly staffs that ensure you are getting the best care for your back problems.

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!

Dr. King is truly outstanding in his field! I've consistently been impressed by the quality of services provided. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure comfort and understanding at every visit. One of the highlights for me is starting each appointment on the rolling machine - it's such a unique and enjoyable experience. I genuinely appreciate the care and dedication of the entire team. Highly recommended!

This is my first experience with a chiropractor. I had been skeptical, but my primary care doctor referred me. My issue was numbeness and weakness in my hand. After an evaluation, Dr King started a treatment plan. After two weeks Ive seen significant progress with my hand and my neck pain, which I had so long that I had forgotten what it was like to wake up not in pain, is MASSIVELY improved.

I have been seeing Dr King for a short time now but I can say in the short time I have been going its been a wonderful experience. The staff is very friendly and helpful and you are in and out in 15 minutes. I have seen results for my back, neck and hips already. I really liked the fact that they took X-RAYs first and went over them with me before adjusting me. You will not be disappointed if you go here.

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. :

My wife and I have been going to Dr. King for years. He often gets my latest work-out related injury taken care of in one visit. I would probably do myself a huge favor by visiting him for routine adjustments to avoid some injuries but it's nice knowing he's there to fix me. I'm not one to rest an injury and he really helps me keep my work-out routines without a bunch of unhealthy meds. Highly recommended!

At my wits end when nothing would remedy the strange nagging pain in my hip down to my feet. Lower back was aching constantly. The pain was beginning to interrupt sleep. Dr. King was able to provide some relief the first visit. By the third visit there was substantial improvement. By the twelth visit Im talking about continued care for the hip/leg issue and a maintenance schedule to maintain this level of comfort. Very effective chemical -free pain relief.

I was always skeptical of chiropractors even though I never really heard anything bad about them. I found Dr. King based on other reviews where he was found to be very personable. Dr. King and Rachael are very welcoming and friendly. I had severe neck pain and was in a time crunch with a vacation planned. Seeing him every day, he was able to treat me to the point where I was pain free for my 2 week vacation. I felt so "free". He is working on other issues related to my neck pain and I am so glad I found him! I highly recommend him!

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.

Dr. King has gotten me straightened out many times in the last few years, literally. I've had sciatica problems, lower back, hip and even balance problems, and Dr. King has always helped. His staff is awesome, too. They are all very professional, yet very friendly, and very concerned about your pain. They are also very quick to get you in and out in a timely manner. Thanks, Dr. King and staff for making me feel comfortable and welcome to come in, even if I don't have an appointment and just drop in.

Dr. King was recommended to me by my East Cobb Chiropractor when I moved up to the lake over 4 years ago. Dr. King has provided excellent Chiropractic care and he has always been available when I need his services. I see him every 4-6 weeks. His office is in a convenient location, it is very comfortable and his staff is alway pleasant and professional. I feel very fortunate to have had Dr. King recommended to me and I would highly recommend him.

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 pain free since seeing Dr. King! He is THE BEST around (and I have seen alot of chiropractors). I never have to wait more than a few minutes. His staff is always friendly and the office is clean but more importantly I have received the best alignments and I'm able to be comfortable in my everyday life.

I love the friendly, comfortable environment in the office. There is such great flexibility and availability in scheduling, and appointments are quick with little or no wait time, so setting appointments is a breeze. I appreciate that Dr. King creates a treatment plan up front, so you know the goal and can measure progress along the way, and he also welcomes your questions and feedback at any time. I was referred to Dr. King by a friend, and I would definitely recommend Backsmart Health to others.

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.

A friend referred me to Dr. King and after living in back pain for months I decided to give his practice a try. I had never been a "chiropractic patient" before. He listened to everything I had to say, did a thorough evaluation, and devised a treatment plan for me. I thought I just had lower back pain. It turns out there were three areas which needed attention. Dr.
King informed me that we needed to treat the "whole spine" which has worked beautifully for me. I have been so impressed with his staff, too. Everyone is kind - not only to me, but my kids, too.
