How is your clinic different from other North Austin chiropractors?+

What insurance do you accept for The Domain patients?+
We accept many PPO plans. Call (512) 358-0325 with your insurance card for verification. Cash, credit, HSA, and FSA also accepted.
What's the difference between chiropractic and physical therapy for sports injury?+
Chiropractic focuses on spinal alignment and joint mobility; PT emphasizes exercise and functional movement. Dr. Stubbs integrates rehab exercises into sports injury care - combining both approaches for The Domain, Austin TX patients.
Can chiropractic help with sports injury during pregnancy?+
Prenatal chiropractic is safe with proper technique. Webster Technique-certified care supports pelvic balance. Many The Domain, Austin TX expectant mothers find relief for pregnancy-related back pain.
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.
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.
