Why 78721 trusts Dr. James Stubbs Jr., D.C.
Dr. James Stubbs Jr., D.C. has served the Austin metro since 2010 - including thousands of East Austin patients. His approach combines spinal manipulation with prescribed stretches and rehab protocols that many chiropractors omit. For sports injury, that integration matters: adjustments restore mobility, but strengthening prevents recurrence.

For Injury Recovery concerns like sports injury, we follow a phased protocol: acute pain management, corrective care, and maintenance. Austin TX 78721 patients who complete the corrective phase report significantly lower recurrence rates than those who stop at symptom relief.

Frequently asked questions
How is your clinic different from other East Austin chiropractors?+
One doctor who knows your history. Integrated rehab exercises. No prepaid visit packages. Honest reassessment every 4–6 visits. 78721 patients choose us for quality over convenience - though we're about 20 minutes away.
Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for sports injury?+
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 sports injury, 78721 patients can book directly with us.
Is there parking at your clinic for 78721 patients?+
Free parking directly in front of our William Cannon office. Wheelchair accessible entrance. No garage fees or validation needed - unlike downtown Austin clinics.
Can I see a chiropractor if I have osteoporosis or osteopenia?+
Yes, with modified techniques. Dr. Stubbs uses gentler, low-force methods for 78721 patients with reduced bone density - avoiding high-velocity adjustments when indicated.
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 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.
