Meet the Chiropractors of Back & Neck Center
Dr. Kenneth Meye | Chiropractor
Graduate: Palmer College of Chiropractic 2010
Years in Practice: 13
Raised in South Central Alaska, Dr Ken has lived in Palmer, Wasilla, Kenai, and Anchorage where he graduated from East Anchorage High School. The exposure to new places and people unleashed a love to travel, a gift of chatting easily with new acquaintances and a talent for languages. He speaks both Spanish and Portuguese having lived in Peru and Portugal.
Like most Alaskans, he enjoys the long days of summer hiking trails in the Chugach range, drives to Seward or other points of interest, the vivid sunsets over Turnagain Arm.
Dr. Ken's initial exposure to chiropractic was due to a construction site accident. Further exposure lead to his pursuing his doctorate. While at Palmer College of Chiropractic, he had the opportunity to participate in a "clinic abroad" program for two weeks in India. It was a direct exposure to the challenges and joys of helping underserved people. Due to this experience, his focus has centered on educating his patients along with treating them. It is a dedication his patients appreciate and value.
Dr. Ken has practiced in Washington and Illinois. Most recently he completed 5 years working with the people of Lima, Peru, and outlying areas. He is glad to be back home and looks forward to providing quality chiropractic care to his fellow Alaskans.
Dr. Tyan Payne | Chiropractor
I was born to be a chiropractor.
My life, and even my heritage, has been greatly impacted by efforts of Chiropractic and Massage. My Grandfather before I was born (in the sixties), was injured in a car accident that left him debilitated and unable to work due to extreme pain. After being told that there was nothing that could be done to relieve the pain or fix his injuries via modern medicine, he went to see a Chiropractor on the recommendation of a friend, a last ditch effort of sorts.
His life began to transform back to what it used to be prior to the accident as he followed the Chiropractor's tretament plan over the course of the following months. He went back to work, and became pain free. My Father, who witnessed all of this as a child, grew up and chose the Chiropractic professional after seeing the transformation and change it brought to suffering people in pain. I was born while my Father was in Chiropractic school, and I grew up watching patients flow through his office, leaving with transformed lives.
When faced with the decision of what career to pursue in my life, I felt called to Chiropractic. It was something that impacted my very existence, and my family wouldn't be the same without it. I knew an amazing Grandfather who loved to fish and hike, not one riddled with pain. I bought my Father's Chiropractic clinic in Wasilla and practiced as a Chiropractor for many years. Most recently, I retired from practicing to raise my family.
