Frequently asked questions
Can a chiropractor actually help with headaches?+
Yes - for mechanical headaches caused by spinal misalignment, muscle tension, or nerve irritation. Dr. Stubbs evaluates Georgetown patients with orthopedic and neurological testing before treatment. A 2018 JAMA Internal Medicine review supports spinal manipulation for acute pain. If your case isn't appropriate for chiropractic, we'll say so and refer you.
Do you offer same-day appointments near Georgetown?+

What insurance do you accept for Georgetown patients?+
We accept many PPO plans. Call (512) 358-0325 with your insurance card for verification. Cash, credit, HSA, and FSA also accepted.
Can I see a chiropractor if I have osteoporosis or osteopenia?+
Yes, with modified techniques. Dr. Stubbs uses gentler, low-force methods for Georgetown patients with reduced bone density - avoiding high-velocity adjustments when indicated.
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 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 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.
