Frequently asked questions
How much does disc injury chiropractic cost in Texas?+
Initial evaluations typically run $75–$125; follow-up visits $50–$75. Many PPO insurance plans cover chiropractic. Kyle patients receive a written estimate at the first visit. HSA/FSA accepted.
What's the difference between chiropractic and physical therapy for disc injury?+
Chiropractic focuses on spinal alignment and joint mobility; PT emphasizes exercise and functional movement. Dr. Stubbs integrates rehab exercises into disc injury care - combining both approaches for Kyle, TX patients.
Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for disc injury?+
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 disc injury, Kyle patients can book directly with us.
What should I expect at my first disc injury visit?+
Health history, postural assessment, orthopedic and neurological testing, and a frank discussion of findings. Kyle patients typically receive treatment on the first visit if appropriate. Plan for 45–60 minutes.
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 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.
