Frequently asked questions

Is chiropractic safe for headaches?+

When performed by a licensed chiropractor after proper evaluation, yes. Dr. Stubbs screens for contraindications at every 78729 intake. Serious adverse events are extremely rare - significantly less common than complications from surgery or long-term NSAID use.

Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for headaches?+

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 headaches, 78729 patients can book directly with us.

Do you treat children for headaches?+

Yes - pediatric techniques are gentler and age-appropriate. Many 78729 families bring children for posture, sports injuries, and wellness checks.

Is there parking at your clinic for 78729 patients?+

Free parking directly in front of our William Cannon office. Wheelchair accessible entrance. No garage fees or validation needed - unlike downtown Austin clinics.

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.

How much does a chiropractor cost in Texas?+

In Texas, chiropractic visits typically cost $30–$200 per session without insurance. Initial exams run $75–$125; follow-ups $50–$75. Austin prices trend slightly higher due to cost of living. At Optimal Wellness on William Cannon, we provide a written estimate at your first visit - no surprise billing.

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.
