What are red flags for chiropractors?+
Red flags include requiring long-term prepaid contracts, guaranteeing cures for non-musculoskeletal conditions, taking X-rays unnecessarily before an exam, discouraging medical referrals, and high-pressure sales tactics at the first visit. At Optimal Wellness, Dr. James Stubbs Jr. explains each treatment step and reassesses your plan every 4–6 visits - no prepaid packages.
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 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.
