Frequently asked questions
How many visits will I need for carpal tunnel?+
Acute carpal tunnel typically responds in 6–12 visits over 4–8 weeks. Chronic cases may need longer. Dr. Stubbs gives a specific estimate at your first 78737 visit and reassesses every 4–6 visits.
How is your clinic different from other West Austin chiropractors?+
One doctor who knows your history. Integrated rehab exercises. No prepaid visit packages. Honest reassessment every 4–6 visits. 78737 patients choose us for quality over convenience - though we're about 20 minutes away.
Is there parking at your clinic for 78737 patients?+

Do you treat children for carpal tunnel?+
Yes - pediatric techniques are gentler and age-appropriate. Many 78737 families bring children for posture, sports injuries, and wellness checks.
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.
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 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.
