What Manor patients say
“My whole family drives from Manor - about 30 minutes - because we trust Dr. Stubbs. He remembers our names and our histories.”
“Headaches 4x/week for two years. Cervical adjustments plus muscle work cut them to once a month. Life-changing for a Manor professional.”
“I commute from Manor to Austin daily - my back was destroyed. Dr. Stubbs didn't just adjust me; he gave me exercises I still do. Carpal Tunnel is manageable now.”
Why Manor trusts Dr. James Stubbs Jr., D.C.
Research published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics supports spinal manipulation for mechanical carpal tunnel.

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.
