Why Leander trusts Dr. James Stubbs Jr., D.C.
Dr. James Stubbs Jr., D.C. has served the Austin metro since 2010 - including thousands of Metro patients. His approach combines spinal manipulation with prescribed stretches and rehab protocols that many chiropractors omit. For auto injury, that integration matters: adjustments restore mobility, but strengthening prevents recurrence.

Frequently asked questions
Can a chiropractor actually help with auto injury?+
Yes - for mechanical auto injury caused by spinal misalignment, muscle tension, or nerve irritation. Dr. Stubbs evaluates Leander patients with orthopedic and neurological testing before treatment. A 2018 JAMA Internal Medicine review supports spinal manipulation for acute pain. If your case isn't appropriate for chiropractic, we'll say so and refer you.
How is your clinic different from other Metro chiropractors?+
One doctor who knows your history. Integrated rehab exercises. No prepaid visit packages. Honest reassessment every 4–6 visits. Leander patients choose us for quality over convenience - though we're about 45 minutes away.
Do you treat auto injury after a car accident?+
Yes. Auto injury documentation is handled properly for Texas personal injury claims. Leander accident victims should seek evaluation within 72 hours - even if pain is delayed.
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, Leander patients can book directly with us.
Can a chiropractor help with cortisol levels?+
Chiropractic may indirectly support stress response by reducing sympathetic nervous system activation - which elevates cortisol during chronic pain. Spinal adjustments and soft-tissue therapy reduce pain-related stress. Dr. Stubbs focuses on mechanical relief; for hormone concerns, we coordinate with your medical provider.
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 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+.
