Sound familiar?

Frequently asked questions

How is your clinic different from other South Austin chiropractors?+

One doctor who knows your history. Integrated rehab exercises. No prepaid visit packages. Honest reassessment every 4–6 visits. 78748 patients choose us for quality over convenience - though we're about 6 minutes away.

What's the difference between chiropractic and physical therapy for sports injury?+

Chiropractic focuses on spinal alignment and joint mobility; PT emphasizes exercise and functional movement. Dr. Stubbs integrates rehab exercises into sports injury care - combining both approaches for Austin TX 78748 patients.

Is chiropractic safe for sports injury?+

When performed by a licensed chiropractor after proper evaluation, yes. Dr. Stubbs screens for contraindications at every 78748 intake. Serious adverse events are extremely rare - significantly less common than complications from surgery or long-term NSAID use.

Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for sports injury?+

Either works - no referral required for chiropractic in Texas. If you have red-flag symptoms (fever, unexplained weight loss, bowel/bladder changes), see your MD first. For mechanical sports injury, 78748 patients can book directly with us.

Can chiropractors help blood flow?+

Yes - adjustments may improve circulation by reducing nerve interference and muscle tension that restrict blood flow. Spinal manipulation decreases sympathetic nervous system activity, which relaxes blood vessels. Soft-tissue work and postural correction complement this for Austin patients dealing with tension-related restriction.

How much does a chiropractor cost in Texas?+

In Texas, chiropractic visits typically cost $30–$200 per session without insurance. Initial exams run $75–$125; follow-ups $50–$75. Austin prices trend slightly higher due to cost of living. At Optimal Wellness on William Cannon, we provide a written estimate at your first visit - no surprise billing.

Can I go to a chiropractor if I have osteopenia?+

Yes, with modified techniques. People with osteopenia can safely receive chiropractic care when the chiropractor uses low-force methods instead of high-velocity adjustments. Dr. Stubbs reviews your health history and uses gentler approaches for patients with reduced bone density - common among Austin adults 50+.
