The SH-130 toll corridor through eastern Pflugerville and the FM 685 / Kelly Lane interchange see heavy stop-and-go commuter traffic toward Domain tech campuses. TxDOT CRIS data shows rear-end collisions - the leading whiplash mechanism - represent ~35% of Travis County crashes. Delayed-onset neck and neck pain peaks 24–72 hours after these low-speed impacts.

Frequently asked questions
How is your clinic different from other Metro chiropractors?+
One doctor who knows your history. Integrated rehab exercises. No prepaid visit packages. Honest reassessment every 4–6 visits. Pflugerville patients choose us for quality over convenience - though we're about 35 minutes away.

Yes - we welcome new Pflugerville, TX patients for neck pain care. No referral needed. Book online 24/7 or call (512) 358-0325 for same-day availability.
Is chiropractic safe for neck pain?+
When performed by a licensed chiropractor after proper evaluation, yes. Dr. Stubbs screens for contraindications at every Pflugerville intake. Serious adverse events are extremely rare - significantly less common than complications from surgery or long-term NSAID use.
How many visits will I need for neck pain?+
Acute neck pain typically responds in 6–12 visits over 4–8 weeks. Chronic cases may need longer. Dr. Stubbs gives a specific estimate at your first Pflugerville visit and reassesses every 4–6 visits.
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+.
Can a chiropractor actually help with back pain?+
Yes, for mechanical low back pain caused by spinal misalignment, muscle tension, or disc pressure. A 2018 JAMA Internal Medicine review found spinal manipulation reduces pain and improves function. Dr. Stubbs evaluates every patient with orthopedic and neurological testing before treatment - and tells you honestly if chiropractic isn't the right fit.
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.
