Frequently asked questions
Do you treat children for trigger point?+
Yes - pediatric techniques are gentler and age-appropriate. Many 78729 families bring children for posture, sports injuries, and wellness checks.

Our clinic at 3421 W William Cannon Dr #145, Austin TX 78745 is about 28 minutes from 78729. Most Austin TX 78729 patients reach us via Jollyville without entering downtown Austin.
How many visits will I need for trigger point?+
Acute trigger point typically responds in 6–12 visits over 4–8 weeks. Chronic cases may need longer. Dr. Stubbs gives a specific estimate at your first 78729 visit and reassesses every 4–6 visits.
Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for trigger point?+
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 trigger point, 78729 patients can book directly with us.
Can a chiropractor help with cortisol levels?+
Chiropractic may indirectly support stress response by reducing sympathetic nervous system activation - which elevates cortisol during chronic pain. Spinal adjustments and soft-tissue therapy reduce pain-related stress. Dr. Stubbs focuses on mechanical relief; for hormone concerns, we coordinate with your medical provider.
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.
