How do I know if I need to see a chiropractor?

If you're struggling with back or neck pain, disc injuries, TMJ dysfunction (TMJD), extremity pain, headaches, or mobility issues, chiropractic care can help. Dr. Bolden Harris uses the precise Gonstead technique for spinal adjustments, alongside digital X-rays, shockwave therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and nutrition guidance to address the root cause of your pain.

How often should I see a chiropractor?

Treatment frequency depends on your specific condition. Acute injuries like herniated discs or TMJD may require more frequent initial visits, while chronic conditions often benefit from a consistent schedule. Preventative maintenance visits help avoid pain recurrence. We create personalized care plans that combine Gonstead adjustments with complementary therapies for optimal healing and long-term wellness.

Can chiropractic care help with posture correction?

Yes! Poor posture contributes to numerous health issues, including disc degeneration, chronic pain, and TMJ dysfunction. Our thorough approach includes Gonstead chiropractic adjustments to restore proper alignment, digital X-ray analysis to identify structural imbalances, targeted rehabilitation exercises to strengthen supporting muscles, and functional medicine approaches to reduce inflammation and promote healing. Correcting postural problems relieves pressure on discs and joints while improving overall function.

Are walk-in chiropractic appointments available?

While we recommend scheduling appointments for optimal care, we make every effort to accommodate same-day and walk-in visits when possible. Contact our Round Rock office directly to check current availability.

What are the most common reasons people visit a chiropractor?

Here are some of the most common conditions Dr. Harris treats: herniated and bulging discs, TMJ dysfunction (TMJD) and jaw pain, extremity pain in the shoulders, knees, hips, and wrists, back and neck pain, headaches and migraines, posture issues, and nerve pain. We offer in-depth care with Gonstead adjustments, diagnostic imaging, shockwave therapy, rehabilitation, and functional medicine for effective, lasting relief.

Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor in Texas?

No, Texas allows direct access to our natural care. You can schedule an appointment without a physician referral. We'll perform a thorough evaluation at your first visit, including digital X-rays when necessary, to develop your personalized treatment plan.

What should I expect during my first chiropractic visit?

Your initial appointment at Family Wellness at Teravista includes an extensive consultation to discuss your symptoms and health history, digital X-ray imaging to assess spinal health and joint alignment, and a Gonstead spinal and extremity examination. Initial treatment recommendations may include adjustments, shockwave therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and the development of a customized plan to address your specific needs.

What should I do after a chiropractic adjustment?

For the best possible results after your adjustment, we recommend hydrating well to support toxin elimination, applying ice to reduce inflammation if needed, and taking light walks to promote disc health. It's also essential to perform prescribed rehabilitation exercises, temporarily avoid intense physical activity, and follow your personalized care plan. Our integrated approach combines Gonstead chiropractic techniques with rehabilitation, functional medicine, and nutritional guidance to help you recover faster and maintain lasting wellness.

Most patients require 6-8 sessions for maximum benefit, depending on the severity and chronicity of their condition. We’ll create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs and goals. To prepare for your session, wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the affected area.

While shockwave therapy may be effective on its own, we often combine it with chiropractic adjustments for optimal results. This integrated approach addresses both joint misalignments and soft tissue injuries, providing comprehensive healing and pain relief.

What Our Patients Say

Dr. Harris and his crew of lovely ladies have been amazing since day one. Always smiling and super friendly. I came in with a herniated disc back in April. Within the first month, I could already feel pain relief. My treatment ended but I continue to come in once a week for an adjustment and of course to see everyone! 10/10 would recommend. You won’t be disappointed!

-Kymberly S.
I started my chiropractic journey with Dr. Harris for my back a little over three months ago and I’ve never felt better. We’ve made great progress, my back is in significantly less pain, and I’ve completely cut out pain killers. I’ve never felt more my age. Dr. Harris takes amazing care of his patients and the staff is all so friendly and really gets to know each patient. I feel heard and seen every time I come in.

-Michael M.
Dr Harris is attentive and really takes the time to find the root cause of back pain. He tries to learn what may have caused it, and explains the best way to treat over time, ensuring that it’s not just adjustments, but physical therapy as well. Thankful we’ve been patients!
