Dr. David King
Ottawa Chiropractor
Dr. King began his chiropractic career with a short stint in Boston before moving to Australia. After having one of the busiest family practices in Australia he returned to North America and worked in the U.S.A. for 4 years before returning to Canada. He began practicing in Ottawa in 2014.
Dr. King focuses on—some would say obsesses with—neuro-orthopaedics (bone, joints, nerves, muscles, the brain) and pain management. This had lead him to seek out innovators, pioneers, and the best-of-the-best in various disciplines in order to provide his community with the most efficient and effective care he can.
Dr. King practices with his wife, Isabel, and their therapy dog, Casper.

“What I love the most about being a health practitioner is those patients that keep you awake at night. Those are the cases that push you to learn and explore more effective and efficient ways to help people. We have found that the key is in understanding why you are in pain and how we can directly address that why.”
