About Us I Backstrong Non Surgical Rehab Clinic

39 Years of Clinical Excellence in North Decatur At BackStrong, we believe that most spinal surgeries and injections are unnecessary if the mechanical root cause of the pain is addressed properly. Led by Dr. Craig Castanet, our clinic at 2771 Lawrenceville Highway has become Georgia’s premier destination for patients seeking a sophisticated, non-surgical alternative for chronic back and neck pain. The Expertise of Dr. Craig Castanet Experience is the ultimate diagnostic tool. Dr. Castanet brings 39 years of experience to every patient evaluation. His unique clinical perspective was shaped by 18 years working within a multidisciplinary practice alongside orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons. This background allows him to understand the complexities of spinal mechanics—and the limitations of surgery—at a level few practitioners can match. Why We Use SpineMED® Technology We are proud to be the only clinic in Georgia featuring the SpineMED® system, the gold standard in non-surgical spinal decompression. Unlike standard traction tables that can trigger muscle guarding and discomfort, SpineMED® utilizes patented biofeedback technology. This system monitors your body’s response thousands of times per second, ensuring the treatment remains gentle, safe, and effective.

Our specialized protocol is designed for comfort and efficiency: Rapid Improvement: 70–80% of our patients notice some improvement starting with their very first treatment. Maximum Comfort: Our system is so gentle that many of our patients actually fall asleep during their sessions. Specialized Care: We focus exclusively on the mechanical treatment of discs, making us the top choice for patients in North Decatur, Tucker, and DeKalb County who haven't found relief elsewhere.
