About Dr. Naomi

Dr. Naomi Smith is a Chiropractor and Certified Athletic Trainer with a strong foundation in sports medicine, functional neurology, and holistic healing. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training from Heidelberg University in 2019, followed by her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Life University in Marietta, Georgia.

During her time in chiropractic school, Dr. Naomi worked as an Athletic Trainer, providing hands-on care, rehabilitation, and performance support to competitive and adolescent athletes in the Northern Atlanta area. Her clinical background includes experience in sports injury rehabilitation, concussion research, and neuromuscular function, giving her a unique ability to assess and address both structural and neurological imbalances.

She also has advanced knowledge in functional nutrition and enjoys working with women, children, and active individuals looking to optimize their health and performance.

Her Approach to Healing

Dr. Naomi’s approach is rooted in balancing the body through the Triad of Health: structural, chemical, and emotional components.

Early in her education, she discovered Applied Kinesiology, which transformed her understanding of how the body communicates and heals. This passion deepened during her study abroad experience at National Taiwan Sport University, where she worked with collegiate athletic teams and was exposed to a culture that integrates holistic medicine as a core part of healthcare.

It was there that she witnessed firsthand how addressing root causes—rather than masking symptoms—could lead to powerful, lasting results without reliance on medication or surgery.

Today, Dr. Naomi combines clinical precision with holistic insight, helping patients restore function, improve performance, and achieve long-term wellness.

Mission & Philosophy

Dr. Naomi is passionate about helping patients understand their bodies, correct underlying imbalances, and function at their highest level.

She believes that healing happens when the body is supported as a whole—not just structurally, but also neurologically, nutritionally, and emotionally. Her goal is to create personalized care plans that allow each patient to move, feel, and live better.

She is proud to be part of Be Optimal Holistic Health Center, where her values align with a truly integrative, patient-centered approach to care.
