King Chiropractic Reviews

Dr. King has been the most thorough

noreply@blogger.com (Dr. Rhett King DC) — Thu, 23 Feb 2012 01:27:00 +0000

and exceptional chiropractor I have worked with. After working with several other practitioners, I am quite happy that I gave him an opportunity to be my chiropractor. I have seen more results in one month with Dr. King than I received from my last chiropractor that I saw M/W/F every week for over 4 years! His techniques, determination, and personable style make each visit a pleasure. Dr. King is the best breed of chiropractors and anyone who is in need of one should make sure to give him a call! - Alex, Wilmington, NC

I've been to several chiropractors

and this one is my favorite. Very professional. He got right to the problem and didn't require unnecessary visits. Highly recommend this practice! Samantha, Wilmington, NC

I've been to about 8 chiropractors since

2003 for scoliosis, back and neck pain, sciatica. Dr. King absolutely gets my top rating for any provider of joint adjustment because he addresses total body alignment, function and strength. He's a certified provider for Active Release Technique (A.R.T.) which I find to be superior to standard chiropractic. A.R.T. adjusts soft tissue, joint mobility and alignment simultaneously. Dr. King analyzed and adjusted my rotated hip, low back then my flat arch, which causes the hip rotation. Both my sons inherited flat feet and I can't wait to take them to Dr. King for help so they can play better and relieve ankle and knee pain associated with flat arches. I recommended him to everyone at Cheer Infinity Gym where my daughter does tumbling. This guy has excellent skill and knowledge to address total body alignment, function, strength and flexibility. He's way better than a standard chiropractor.1peace4jc, Wilmington, NC

I have been to MANY Chiropractors over MANY

years and there is no better one than Rhett King. I've never been to a Chiropractor like this, the style is completely different from the "norm". I have many chronic things to heal and I've only been to him a short while but I have TOTAL confidence that I will get better. He embodies HEALING and CARING .... money is secondary. Very hard to find that. K.K Wilmington, NC

My Miracle Worker

I like to call Dr. King my miracle worker. I've been playing sports and running for years and have always been plagued by one injury or another. I always seemed to be in recovery mode. This last time I felt severe pain in my IT band while runnning the Quintiles 1/2 marathon this spring. I figured I'd do the same thing I'd always done and use rest, ice, heat, stretching, anti-inflammatories, and lots of walking. I thought I'd be back in no time to train for the Marine Corps Marathon this fall. But, this time my same thing plan didn't work. After 4 months of pain, my couch finally sent me to Dr. King. I told him what hurt every time I tried to start running. Dr. King used ART on my leg and I remember being amazed at how much range of motion I had. I didn't realize how tight and constricted my muscles and connective tissue had become. So I went to Dr. King twice a week and had him work through each area I felt was tight. After the first week, I started jogging slowly with my running group. After the second week, I was running happily with my group. After the third, I was back running full speed and all of the pain was gone, including lingering old injury pain. I cannot thank Dr. King enough for helping me get back on my marathon training plan so quickly. As much pain as I was in, I really do consider it a miracle that I feel so good.

Effective and informative

I started seeing Dr. King in March for a less than typical chiropractic problem with my knee. When I met with him for the first time he made me feel at ease. He took the time to explain to me why he was doing the treatment he was and also explained that if he didn't see results after our treatment plan he would refer me to a specialist. I am a very active athlete and I never like to take time off. Dr. King understood my lifestyle and developed a treatment plan around it. While I was still getting work on my knee done I injured my back and I was so thankful that I had a Dr. that I trusted that I could call immediately. Dr. King was able to see me that day. If you have any type of sports injury or back pain I highly recommend Dr. King.

Finally Pain Free!

I had met Dr. King in other settings and appreciated his relaxed, friendly manner. When I found that other chiropractic treatment wasn't able to get rid of my neck/shoulder/arm pain, I sought out his A.R.T. expertise. I'm thrilled to say I'm now pain free after only two treatments! Dr. King took a lot of time with me during the initial evaluation and the treatments. I highly recommend him!

ART... works for me!

After nearly 20 years of various types of chiropractic adjustments, I am totally sold on the methods utilized by Active Release Technique, which Dr. King uses. It is a "gentler approach" than traditional table-drop snap-and-pop techniques, that seems to employ more assisted stretching through range of motion. Not only is it more comfortable to experience, but you are less sore the next day and the results seem longer lasting. Dr. King is also very personable with a good bedside manner, and "unchiropractor-like" in the sense that he is not trying to "sell you" on a package deal. His rates are also reasonable, and I would highly recommend him to anyone - but especially those with chronic muscolo-skeletal injuries.

Best value: a Dr. who makes you fell better AND cares!!

This doctor cares like none other I've seen. He not only listens, but takes action based on what you said and his assessment of what's going on with your body. He gives do-able advice and won't treat you beyond what is necessary for results. He will refer you out if need be, but so far, I haven't needed any one else. The A.R.T. therapy is great for soft tissue work, and it's good to see that chiropractic medicine has grown to helping aching extremeties, not just backs! I would recommend this doctor highly!

This Doctor knows his stuff

Dr. King is an excellent chiropractor. Not only can he give you an ajustment that is more specific to YOUR NEEDS than any other doctor, but if your joints aren't the problem then he work the soft tissue, or he get you the arch supports that actually work, or find some other way. And if by chance your that rare person that he just can't help then he's not going to B.S. you, He tells you he can't help you and puts you in contact with someone he feels would be able to help. You won't find many doctors that are this focused on actually getting you better instead helping their wallet. Thank you Dr. King

Best Chiropractor in Wilmington

Dr. King is amazing. I have been using his services for over a year now and he has seen me through 1 full marathon and 2 half marathons. I am a personal trainer and workout a lot and I have pounded that pavement and destroyed by body with all this running and yet he has been able to keeping me going. He listens to what I have to say and keeps me informed and gives me great advice along with wonderful chiropractic care. I would refer all of my clients, friends, and family to him. Thx Dr. King.

Not just another patient

My experience with Dr. King has been great. I went from being in almost constant pain and tension in my lower back to being able to surf and golf again. I had personally gotten frustrated with the lack of attention and concern from other Dr.s, Dr. King actually listened to my concerns and issues i was having day in and day out. He even gave me the tools and information to help myself with overcoming my lower back issues outside of his office. I never felt like just another client to pass though. Lucas H. Wilmington, NC

Helped me more than any other chiropractor

noreply@blogger.com (Dr. Rhett King DC) — Thu, 19 May 2011 13:37:00 +0000

Four to five times every year for maybe a 5-6 year period, I would get a shooting pain in my mid-back that would have me drop to the floor. I am a mechanic so I move alot and having my back out isn't good for business. My wife got connected with Dr. King and she began receiving adjustments. I haven't been the biggest fan of chiropractors so I really wasn't interested. My interest peaked though when one day I started feeling that mid-back pain coming on. It always gave me a little warning before it brought me to my knees so this time I listened to the warning (at my wife's urging!) and scheduled an appointment with Dr. King. I went regularly for about a month and now only see him for maintenance. It's been two years and I have not had the slightest issue with my mid-back. No more shooting pains. Thank you Dr. King!

I have not had to use Dr. King's Chiropractic services but every encounter myself and my friends have had with him through Wilmington Health Nuts has been fantastic. He is well organized, professional, and always comes up with unique fun fitness inspired activities for us to engage in twice a month. The fact that he has come up with such a healthy way to get his community out and about says a lot about him as a person and a doctor. I would recommend him highly for this group and any Chiropractic services that you may need. LiShea Wilmington, NC

Eased my Chiropractic pain & worries...

noreply@blogger.com (Dr. Rhett King DC) — Thu, 19 May 2011 13:14:00 +0000

I was weary when I first thought of going to the Chiropractor. I had never been and some had told me that sometimes you are worse off then before you went. That is simply not the case. I had severe pain in my lower back. I also had a reoccurring pain that would come and go in my upper right shoulder. I remember Dr. King had a great personality and eagerness right from the start ,to the patient's Wellness. We created a chart of yourself to specifically monitor all types of improvement or not. You have to remember that a big part of back pain is the way you treat yourself. You have to be careful with your back while you are getting treatment or it's going to be hard getting to the root of it. We discussed flexible payment plans. I am a full-time College student, so I had to watch what I spend. Dr. King worked with me and came up with a good plan. I ended up going 2 times a week. I went for a little over a month. I had planned to go longer, but got to feeling pretty good. Dr. King is very thorough at finding the root of the problem that is causing your pain and not masking the problem up. Mine would get better and then bad at times. Dr. King sent me through a course of Spinal Decompression. I had read up on it at the time. I read some great and some not so great. It's basically pulling your spine with pressure at different levels to try to align better. I think it's one of the procedures along with Dr. King that helped me the most! I am very glad that I picked him for my first Chiropractor. When I get out of College and my finances get better. I plan on going for spinal adjustments. Thank you again! Chad D. Chadbourn, NC

To maintain my current level of wellness

Dr. King is great. He is gentle but gets the job done. I really appreciate being his only patient in the room when he is adjusting me. He focuses on me. He recently accompanied me to an Orthopedic appt just to make sure they were treating me correctly. Who does that????? Brenda C., Wilmington, NC

Leg numbness, pain, foot drop

noreply@blogger.com (Dr. Rhett King DC) — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 16:15:00 +0000

I ran into Dr King after a duatholon ( I was preparing for the full Ironman - Beach to Battleship in Wilmington). I explained my leg issues stemmed from a serious disc issue that left me with partial paralysis in my left foot and atrophy to my left leg. I had been taking pain medication for over a year to deal with pain in the lower back and leg. After seeing Dr. King and experiencing the ART, I no longer require medication - the pain has subsided. The 'heaviness' in my left leg is gone and the foot is improving. To top it off, I ran the Ironman in 13:44:11 with ZERO pain in my back and leg - UNREAL! Previously, I was not able to make it through a normal workout without my Mobic, let alone a full Ironman. Additionally, these adjustments have helped me with my biomechanics on the run and bike. I attribute this entirely to the treatment Dr King provided (along with some great exercise and stretches he gave me). It has been a fantastic experience for me - thanks again Doc!

Amazing!

I give many thanks to Dr. King for educating me on the importance of a healthy spine and how it effects my entire well-being. My husband and I both receive care at King Chiropractic and both of us recommend him to anyone in pain or just looking for increased health. I always feel like a priority at each visit and like he genuinely cares about my health. Dr. King even volunteered to speak with my father-in-law who lives in Buffalo, NY about his health concerns. This was just another demonstration of how much he truly cares and enjoys his work. I also participate in his Wilmington Health Nuts group. I appreciate the variety of activities he schedules and enjoy the members of the group. He has a true passion and commitment to health. Thank you Dr. King! - Joanne S.

I had lower back pain and tightness

noreply@blogger.com (Dr. Rhett King DC) — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 19:01:00 +0000

You helped me by adjusting my back, neck, hips, and shoulders. You showed me on my x-rays and spinal scan that my more severe subluxation was occurring in my neck. My lower back pain is mostly gone now and my neck feels better and we are only 3/4 into the duration of my treatment. Now, you are helping me with my shoulder which has given me pain and tightness for 5 years now. After just a few weeks of coming in twice a week, my shoulder is feeling much better. I have hope for the first time that my shoulder can heal!!! Thank you so much Dr. King! :-) Thanks Dr. Russ for recommending a wonderful cervical neck pillow that I sleep on now! - Hanna M., Wrightsville Beach, NC

Had an issue with heartburn

noreply@blogger.com (Dr. Rhett King DC) — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:11:00 +0000

I have been to many great Chiropractors in my life. One of them was even able to cure a slight degree of Scoliosis so I know Chiropractors work. Dr. King has been working on me mainly for maintenance but he's the best I ever seen. I had a problem with acid reflux that other doctors said there's no cure. Dr King said he was going to make it a goal to do something about it. I haven't had an issue with heartburn in about six months now when it use to be a daily problem. Thanks Dr. King. - J.K. Wilmington, NC

I went to Dr. King in an emergency situation and he went out of his way to help me immediately. He takes his time with patients and explains everything completely. I would recommend him to anyone! - Laura S.
