Stress from auto injury affects your mood, your patience, your relationships. It's not "just physical."
You've been putting up with auto injury for months, hoping it would resolve on its own - but Georgetown life doesn't pause for pain.
Medication takes the edge off, but you know it's not fixing anything - and the side effects aren't worth it long-term.
You see others in Georgetown staying active while you're sidelined - and it's demoralizing.
What changes when you get the right care
- A single provider who knows your history - not a rotating cast of associates who re-read your chart each visit.
- You get back to doing the things you stopped doing - without modifying your Georgetown life around the pain.
- Soft-tissue therapy complements adjustments - releasing muscle tension that keeps auto injury recurring.
- Reduced inflammation and improved nerve signaling - the downstream effects of proper spinal alignment.
What Georgetown patients say
“Prenatal care was gentle and effective - but I stayed after delivery for auto injury too. The whole family sees Dr. Stubbs now, even from Georgetown.”
“As a local worker, I sit 10 hours a day. Dr. Stubbs fixed my neck and showed me desk setup changes. Worth the drive from Georgetown.”
“When I moved to Austin I was sure no chiropractor could compare to my DC. Dr. Stubbs filled the void and then some - quality auto injury care plus stretches and rehab for weak areas. He always makes time and calls to check up. I'd recommend him to anyone in Georgetown.”

How far is Optimal Wellness from Georgetown?+
Our clinic at 3421 W William Cannon Dr #145, Austin TX 78745 is about 45 minutes from Georgetown. Most Georgetown, TX patients reach us via Sun City Texas without entering downtown Austin.
Can I see a chiropractor if I have osteoporosis or osteopenia?+
Yes, with modified techniques. Dr. Stubbs uses gentler, low-force methods for Georgetown patients with reduced bone density - avoiding high-velocity adjustments when indicated.
Can chiropractic help with auto injury during pregnancy?+
Prenatal chiropractic is safe with proper technique. Webster Technique-certified care supports pelvic balance. Many Georgetown, TX expectant mothers find relief for pregnancy-related back pain.
Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for auto 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 auto injury, Georgetown patients can book directly with us.
Can a chiropractor prescribe prednisone?+
No. Chiropractors in Texas are not licensed to prescribe medications, including prednisone. Chiropractic is drug-free by design. In Texas, only MDs, DOs, nurse practitioners, and PAs with prescriptive authority can prescribe pharmaceuticals. Dr. Stubbs focuses on spinal adjustment, soft-tissue therapy, and rehab exercises instead.
Can a chiropractor actually help with back pain?+
Yes, for mechanical low back pain caused by spinal misalignment, muscle tension, or disc pressure. A 2018 JAMA Internal Medicine review found spinal manipulation reduces pain and improves function. Dr. Stubbs evaluates every patient with orthopedic and neurological testing before treatment - and tells you honestly if chiropractic isn't the right fit.
How much do chiropractors cost for back pain in Texas?+
In Texas, back-pain visits typically run $60–$120 without insurance; initial exams $75–$125. Austin trends slightly higher. At Optimal Wellness on William Cannon, we provide a written estimate at your first visit - initial evaluations $75–$125, follow-ups $50–$75. HSA/FSA accepted.
