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.

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.

Should I see a chiropractor or my primary doctor first for work 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 work injury, 78721 patients can book directly with us.

Is chiropractic safe for work injury?+

When performed by a licensed chiropractor after proper evaluation, yes. Dr. Stubbs screens for contraindications at every 78721 intake. Serious adverse events are extremely rare - significantly less common than complications from surgery or long-term NSAID use.

What are red flags for chiropractors?+

Red flags include requiring long-term prepaid contracts, guaranteeing cures for non-musculoskeletal conditions, taking X-rays unnecessarily before an exam, discouraging medical referrals, and high-pressure sales tactics at the first visit. At Optimal Wellness, Dr. James Stubbs Jr. explains each treatment step and reassesses your plan every 4–6 visits - no prepaid packages.

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.

Can chiropractors help blood flow?+

Yes - adjustments may improve circulation by reducing nerve interference and muscle tension that restrict blood flow. Spinal manipulation decreases sympathetic nervous system activity, which relaxes blood vessels. Soft-tissue work and postural correction complement this for Austin patients dealing with tension-related restriction.

Join hundreds of East Austin patients who chose drug-free relief. Your work injury consultation starts with one call.
