Yes - book 24/7 at our online scheduling portal. New Escarpment Village, Austin TX patients welcome. You'll receive confirmation and intake forms by email before your visit.
Do you treat whiplash after a car accident?+
Yes. Auto injury documentation is handled properly for Texas personal injury claims. Escarpment Village accident victims should seek evaluation within 72 hours - even if pain is delayed.
Is chiropractic safe for whiplash?+
When performed by a licensed chiropractor after proper evaluation, yes. Dr. Stubbs screens for contraindications at every Escarpment Village intake. Serious adverse events are extremely rare - significantly less common than complications from surgery or long-term NSAID use.
How much does whiplash chiropractic cost in Texas?+
Initial evaluations typically run $75–$125; follow-up visits $50–$75. Many PPO insurance plans cover chiropractic. Escarpment Village patients receive a written estimate at the first visit. 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.
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 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+.
