Frequently asked questions

Free parking directly in front of our William Cannon office. Wheelchair accessible entrance. No garage fees or validation needed - unlike downtown Austin clinics.
What's the difference between chiropractic and physical therapy for shoulder pain?+
Chiropractic focuses on spinal alignment and joint mobility; PT emphasizes exercise and functional movement. Dr. Stubbs integrates rehab exercises into shoulder pain care - combining both approaches for Austin TX 78732 patients.
Do you treat children for shoulder pain?+
Yes - pediatric techniques are gentler and age-appropriate. Many 78732 families bring children for posture, sports injuries, and wellness checks.
Can a chiropractor actually help with shoulder pain?+
Yes - for mechanical shoulder pain caused by spinal misalignment, muscle tension, or nerve irritation. Dr. Stubbs evaluates 78732 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.
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 help with cortisol levels?+
