Frequently asked questions

Is chiropractic safe for chiropractic?+

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

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

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

Is there parking at your clinic for South Congress patients?+

Do you treat chiropractic after a car accident?+

Yes. Auto injury documentation is handled properly for Texas personal injury claims. South Congress accident victims should seek evaluation within 72 hours - even if pain is delayed.

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 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+.

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.
