What Zilker patients say
“Whiplash after a fender-bender - symptoms showed up 3 days later. Dr. Stubbs documented everything for insurance and my prenatal resolved in 8 weeks.”
“Headaches 4x/week for two years. Cervical adjustments plus muscle work cut them to once a month. Life-changing for a Zilker professional.”
“I commute from Zilker to Austin daily - my back was destroyed. Dr. Stubbs didn't just adjust me; he gave me exercises I still do. Prenatal is manageable now.”

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.
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.
