You worry this is just "getting older" - but chiropractic at your age often has a treatable mechanical cause.

Frequently asked questions
How much does chiropractic chiropractic cost in Texas?+
Initial evaluations typically run $75–$125; follow-up visits $50–$75. Many PPO insurance plans cover chiropractic. 78741 patients receive a written estimate at the first visit. HSA/FSA accepted.
Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for chiropractic?+
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 chiropractic, 78741 patients can book directly with us.
Do you provide documentation for workers' comp chiropractic claims?+
Yes. Proper diagnosis coding and progress notes for every visit. Workers from 78741 receive complete documentation.
Do you treat children for chiropractic?+
Yes - pediatric techniques are gentler and age-appropriate. Many 78741 families bring children for posture, sports injuries, and wellness checks.
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 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.
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+.
