Sound familiar?
The unpredictability is worst - fine one day, debilitated the next. Nutrition doesn't follow a schedule.
You're tired of being told to "just rest" when rest alone hasn't changed anything in weeks.
Every morning you wake up in Southeast Austin, TX and it's the first thing you feel - before coffee, before the commute on Onion Creek.
Night pain disrupts sleep, and poor sleep makes nutrition worse. It's a cycle Southeast Austin residents know too well.

What Southeast Austin patients say
“Headaches 4x/week for two years. Cervical adjustments plus muscle work cut them to once a month. Life-changing for a Southeast Austin professional.”

Nutrition & Wellness in Southeast Austin, TX
Technology neck - forward head posture from phones and monitors - is epidemic in South Austin. It contributes directly to nutrition for many Southeast Austin patients. Ergonomic coaching is part of treatment, not an afterthought.
Your first visit for nutrition includes health history, postural photos, range-of-motion testing, and palpation. Southeast Austin patients leave with a written diagnosis, estimated visit count, and home care instructions - not a sales pitch for 36 prepaid visits.
What distinguishes our approach for nutrition? Integration. Spinal adjustments restore joint mobility. Soft-tissue therapy releases muscle tension that pulls vertebrae out of alignment. Corrective exercises stabilize the area so Southeast Austin patients don't return every few weeks with the same complaint.

Frequently asked questions
What should I expect at my first nutrition visit?+
Health history, postural assessment, orthopedic and neurological testing, and a frank discussion of findings. Southeast Austin patients typically receive treatment on the first visit if appropriate. Plan for 45–60 minutes.
How much does nutrition chiropractic cost in Texas?+
Initial evaluations typically run $75–$125; follow-up visits $50–$75. Many PPO insurance plans cover chiropractic. Southeast Austin patients receive a written estimate at the first visit. HSA/FSA accepted.
Do you offer same-day appointments near Southeast Austin?+
Same-day availability is standard on Mon/Wed/Thu. Call (512) 358-0325 early - about 18 minutes from Southeast Austin.
Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for nutrition?+
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 nutrition, Southeast Austin patients can book directly with us.
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.
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+.
