The Alaska Back Pain Protocol “ABPP”
Low back pain can be treated with the Alaska Back Pain Protocol, something which is exclusive to Better Health Chiropractic & Physical Rehab. Massage therapy, physical rehabilitation therapy, and chiropractic care are combined by Dr. Brent Wells and his team to achieve the best possible outcome for each patient for long-lasting results.
Chiropractic Care & Adjustments
Our chiropractic care focuses on correcting misalignments, relieving pressure from the vertebrae in the spine and neck, and reducing pain and inflammation. Chiropractic adjustments use gentle force on the affected area(s) to improve the flow of nutrients throughout the body.
Physical Rehabilitation
Our physical rehabilitation therapy is a specialized method of healthcare that focuses on restoring strength, flexibility, and mobility to any affected joints and muscles. Strength building exercises and stretches are coupled with at-home and in-office therapies to help your body become healthy once more.
Physical Therapy Modalities
Our physical therapy modalities use ultrasounds, electric currents, and specialized traction may be utilized for best results. Our physical therapy modalities technicians are fully equipped and trained with the best treatments available for your current condition.
Massage Therapy
Our massage therapy incorporates direct attention and care of the spine, muscles, and central nervous system. Our massage therapists decrease pain levels, lower stress, and inflammation, and reduce discomfort. Massage treatments increase the natural benefits of holistic chiropractic care.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy uses motorized traction or a table to gently stretch the spine. We can help you get relief from bulging, degenerated, or herniated discs. Our technicians gently reposition the spine, which gets rid of back pain.
DRS System & Low Back Pain Treatment
The DRS System is a form of disc decompression therapy that offers relief to back pain sufferers. A series of 30-minute sessions offer a highly effective alternative to many spinal surgeries for patients seeking relief from back pain.

Frequently Asked Questions about Chiropractors:
What Is the Scope of Practice of Chiropractors?
The scope of practice statutes usually addresses two separate areas of practice: diagnosis and treatment. The more substantial statutes permit a chiropractor to use any method of diagnosis that is taught in the chiropractic institutions.

How Often Should I Get a Chiropractic Adjustment?
How often are you experiencing pain? This may not seem like a fair question. If you are experiencing pain in multiple areas, additional visits may be found very helpful. If your current pain is intense and debilitating, more visits may be needed to bring the healing that you seek.

Chiropractor or Physical Therapist: What Is the Difference?
Misconceptions have centered around the fact that chiropractic largely leaves out the need for medications. Physical therapy’s history has been more closely aligned with traditional medical practices. As a result, physical therapy may have greater associations with the use of medications in some locations. Yet, many physical therapists do seek to avoid the use of medications.
