Better Life Chiropractic

Too bad I waited 38 years out of fear of getting ‘cracked’. After only 2 sessions, I know my life is forever changed. To regaining flexibility in neck to touching my toes for the first time to having every yoga pose be noticeably deeper… I couldn’t be happier. Dr. Dabb took his time to explain everything he was going to do and why it helps, to ease my anxiety. He also worked on my 14 year old son, which my son found very helpful, and we will continue to go there. Dr. Dabb is fantastic — I highly recommend!

Dr Dabb rocks. He’s healed my daughters painful back rapidly. My daughter got injured at school. I had a good feeling about dr Dabb from his reviews. And sure enough I was not disappointed. He’s a very good healer and my wife and I see him too.
Since I’ve been seeing him for a year and a half my long term back pain is fading. I got in a rock climbing accident. Yes, rocks are harder than backs. ;-)
Keeps the back pain away. I’ve never had such good alignment.

I have been to 2 to 3 other chiropractors before and liked them fine, but they don’t compare to how centered and restored I feel after meeting with Dr. Dabb. Not only are his adjustments wonderful, but he spends a great deal of time working on tense areas with acupressure and massage.
He also checks in about life stress and changes I am working on in order to help me better manage tension. He is very holistic in that way. Great provider all around.

If I could give Dr. Dabb 10 stars I would. I didn’t believe in chiropractors but after some friends urged me to try I came to Better Life. And now I am a Dr. Dabb fan & convert. My whole family now goes to see him and we all feel better in ways we didn’t even know possible. Even though I initially went for a shoulder issue, I no longer have my daily headaches. And after 5 foot surgeries, my walking was limited. However that is not an issue anymore either. What have you got to lose — except pain & lack of mobility! Dr. Dabb is FAB!!!

Visiting Dr. Dabb was my first appointment with a chiropractor ever.
He was a referral from a friend of mine.
I’ve had a lot of pain issues that I have been dealing with for a long time. I have had a number of car and cycling accidents, not to mention that I work out a ton and I’m always pushing my physical limitations. I now have a desk job, so my reason for initially visiting was to manage arm pain I was having from typing all day long.
Dr. Dabb has helped me a lot with my neck and arm pain. He always has suggestions for how I can stretch or do other exercises to help manage the pain. This works well with my adjustments, so I am feeling so much better. He is also working on my ankles and lower legs, as I have a lot of discomfort while running. I find that I am listening to my body a lot more, and stretching a lot more.
He is a very caring chiropractor, as well as very reasonable about what really needs to be done. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Dabb is wonderful. He truly listens to his patients needs and addresses underlying issues related to body pain (eg posture, strengthening muscles, etc). He educates his patients on their condition and involves them as partners in their care. I’ve suffered knee pain for years and through his care have started to be able to use my knees without pain. I highly recommend him!!!

Dr Dabb is amazing.
I came to him because my back sprung (again) about 10 days before my annual boys ski trip. He did his thing and I had a great trip with no back problems. I would recommend him for that, but the miracle he performed for me was that I had migraine headaches for about 15 years almost every morning. He came up with stretches and very minor changes to my routine that cured them. It has now been about 3 years and they have not come back. I always wanted to return the favor, so I am writing this tribute to his great practice. Thanks, Greg.

Dr. Dabb is my HERO!
I got rear ended about a month ago, and I was in pain. I could not even turn my neck and my chest hurt so much it was hard for me to breathe. I called Dr. Dabb after reading the reviews on Unilocal,and he fit me in right away.
It was pretty amazing how he can just assess what happened by touching my bones! He carefully explained to me this is why this hurts or that is why that hurts, and I am no doctor, but it all made sense!
I also love how he cares about your well-​being. He suggests things to change in your life style to not strain your neck so much or different strength training to help maintain the alignment in your back.
I will probably continue to come after my adjustments for my car accident are over. I live in San Jose, but it is DEFINITELY worth the drive!!!

I was referred to Dr. Dabb through a friend of mine, and it was probably the best referral I’ve ever gotten! He is the only chiropractor that has enabled me to run without lower back pain. I’ve tried 9 other chiropractors on the peninsula, and he is the absolute best!

Dr. Dabb is an amazing Healer! I went to his office with major pain in my neck, shoulders and a bit of TMJ. My bite was off and I couldn’t sleep at night from the pain. On the first visit, Dr. Dabb adjusted my bite along with some other areas, and I felt so much relief. I’ve been going to him now for a few weeks and each time I go, I see improvement! He knows where the pain is even if I haven’t communicated it. I highly recommend him. He explains what he is doing and is very patient!

I called Dr Dabb (and a few other Chiros) in haste one day when I was fed up with not being able to sit or move properly. Definitely my own fault that I let it get that bad, but I was not near my normal massage therapist.
He kindly called and took me in the same day. His tableside manner is very calm and reassuring and he took the time to educate me (a newbie to Chiro) about what it does, how it can help. I decided to give him a try. We setup a plan where — for the first few weeks — I would see him 2x a week, then following 1x a week a few more weeks, and beyond that once or twice a month assuming I was feeling better. Basically w were trying to get my body back into a maintenance mode. He also provided some exercises (very very simple) that I could do to help stretch the muscles that was causing misalignment.
I have to say — I went from being consistently in pain — to the point where my back was so tight that if I sneezed I would give a Unilocal of pain, to be blissfully almost painless. His plan worked so well that I was down to a maintenance in a little over a month.
I would highly recommend Dr. Dabb. All the 5 star reviews are well deserved. I am sad that I moved out of the area so I need to find someone like him again, which is no easy task.

My husband and I both suffer from major lower back pain — my husband is worse where he can’t even get off the floor. Dr. Dabb is amazing! He is able to get my husband walking in just an hour and has him back and being active in a very short period of time.
Dr. Dabb is an amazing listener and he really knows what you need to get you up and running again. I go to him for headaches, neck pain, etc.
If you are looking for an amazing chiropractor who really cares, this is the place to go!

Dr. Dabb is great. He’s professional, knows what he’s doing and cares about his patients.

Dr. Dabb is a wonderful medical professional. Chiropractors are like dermatologists and acupuncturists: hit or miss. Either you have a great experience, or you leave your appointment frustrated, disappointed, and inevitably poorer.
With Dr. Dabb, this will not happen. He is very caring, patient, and GOOD! I always feel much better after an appointment, and I usually sleep like a log that night. In fact, before I saw Dr. Dabb, I was a total skeptic about chiro, but I slept so well after each one of my appointments that I realized it couldn’t be a coincidence.
He’s greatly alleviated my sciatica, my TMJ (I can’t even tell you how much better my jaw feels now!!!), and my lower back pain. I only wish my insurance covered more visits so I could go more than once a month.

Dr Dabb is a great person and chiropractor. He’s helped me recover from several injuries including a broken back. My wife and young child also enjoy the benefits of Dr. Dabb’s care. I would recommend him to anyone in pain or dealing with health issues. Dr. Dabb can help you feel better and enjoy your life more.
Thanks Greg

I have been a long time chiropractic patient and have worked for many of them, some are too light, some are too hard, but Dr. Dabb is a just right and a true natural healer!

I have been seeing Dr. Dabb for probably close to two years now. When I first starting seeing him, I had been struggling with my lower back for years, but had been in severe pain for a couple of months. I could not stand or walk for longer than 10 – 15 minutes at a time without the left side of my lower back tightening up and going into spasms. Yes, that was me squatting down in the aisles of Target with Vicodin in my purse and tears in my eyes trying to stretch out my back enough to to make it out the door without paramedics.
I saw him a couple of times a week for the first few weeks, then tapered to once a week and now twice a month for what I call «maintenance». My back has never been better and he skillfully worked out all of the kinks in my neck that I had been dealing with for so many years that I actually forgot to complain about them.
About a year into seeing him I had major surgery. As a result of the way the surgeon positioned my legs for such an extended amount of time my hip was out of whack. It seemed to act up the most was when I turned to stand up from a chair, sliding out of a restaurant booth, etc. It felt like it would kind of pop out of the socket and I would have to use my hands to pick my leg up under my knee and move the whole leg. After my first hip adjustment I was gooooood for about 2 weeks without any pain or dislocation issues. After the second adjustment (this was over a year ago) I was CURED… yeah!!!
I have recommended Dr. Dabb numerous times to friends and coworkers and I am sure I will continue to do so for many years to come.

When I first visited Dr. Dabb over three years ago, I was skeptical that chiropractic would be helpful for my lower back disc issues. Not only had I just finished an unsuccessful round of physical therapy, I was unimpressed by previous experiences with other chiropractors.
Today, I’m an outspoken advocate of chiropractic – entirely the result of Dr. Dabb’s handiwork. After a little over a month of treatment, I was pain free (no numbness down my right leg… finally could drive more than 20 minutes without my back freaking out). Best of all, that was three years ago! My disc issues have never come back.
Results aside… merely going to see Dr. Dabb is a pleasure. No pressure to get treatments you may not want. He takes care to spend as much time as necessary to work on a patient (no rushed appointments to get you out the door). He’s thoughtful and enthusiastic – obviously loves what he does and cares deeply about his patients. He also views a patient holistically – looking at contributing factors such as dietary supplements, lifestyle, etc. He stays aware of new trends in alternative and mainstream medicine.
Phew…I’ll stop here even though I could keep writing more.
The short of it? Dr. Dabb is by no means your average chiropractor.

I suffered from chronic neck pain and headaches for many years. During the course of a regular work day I would sometimes be forced to take up to twelve advil just to cope with the pain.
Then, in 2004, I met Dr. Dabb. He changed my life. I’ve been consistently receiving treatment from Dr. Dabb ever since and I rarely have to take pain killers.
What sets Greg apart from other chiropractors is his ability to know exactly what adjustments you need to feel your best. Some chiropractors give you the once size fits all run through. You walk into their office and they think the best way to treat you is for you to lay on different tables, receive ultrasound, heat pads, mechanical back massages etc… all you do is end up wasting thirty minutes of your day. Where they fail is in their ability to use their hands and correctly adjust. Dr. Dabb spends the time necessary to properly diagnose your ailment and apply a strict regiment of appropriate treatment/​adjustments.
I’ve been to many chiropractors over the years but Greg is the best! Even though I live in San Jose the drive to Los Altos is definitely worth it.

Dr. Dabb is not only a talented chiropractor, but has become a positive force for motivating me to obtain a healthy lifestyle. His chiropractic and nutritional advice and support have helped me to achieve much more balance in my life. I highly recommend his well-​priced services.
