Best chiropractor in South Austin
TexStar Chiropractic was voted Best Chiropractor in the Austin area in the 2026 Best of ATX awards, presented by Statesman and Austin Monthly. The South Austin clinic is one of the four offices covered by that vote. It is a public vote, not a promise about any one visit. Results vary.
What Back Pain Looks Like in South Austin
The backs that show up on Southwest Parkway tightened on the drive, after a loop on the Circle C trails, or from a lift that went wrong in Sunset Valley. Some people feel it only in the spine. Others notice it catch when they stand up from the car in the lot out front. Dr. Ho sees that pattern here. A knee that needs decompression is booked at Bee Cave or Buda, because that machine is not on Southwest Parkway.
How South Austin Examines Back Pain
The Austin exam starts with the week you just had: the commute, the training, or the lift. Dr. Ho checks lumbar motion, hip strength, and whether a leg symptom follows a nerve, before anyone talks about a table. She can use a lower-force adjustment when a strong manual thrust is a poor fit. An old image is useful. It does not replace the tests done in Suite 101.
Back Pain Care at the South Austin Clinic
For the low back, this suite can use an adjustment, spinal decompression, rehab, MLS laser, or spot cryotherapy. The exam picks the trial. Knee on Trac is not a back machine and it is not here. If the pain is coming from the hip or the knee instead of the lumbar spine, the plan changes, and a knee-decompression visit is pointed to Bee Cave or Buda.
First Visit for Back Pain in South Austin
Park at the Southwest Parkway suite and check in on the first floor. Mention the $98 new-patient offer. It covers the consult, the neuro-musculo-skeletal exam, one trial treatment chosen from decompression, laser, or spot cryotherapy, and a findings review. You leave knowing the next step. Friday visits have to land before noon.
When Back Pain Should Not Wait for South Austin
Do not wait for this clinic if you cannot control urine or stool, if numbness is spreading through the saddle area, or if one leg is clearly weaker than it was this morning. Those findings need an emergency department. A back that is hot, feverish, and new after cancer treatment should be cleared medically before Dr. Ho adjusts it.

Where do I go for lower back pain in South Austin?
Suite 101 at 4601 Southwest Parkway, Austin, TX 78735. The TexStar sign faces the parking lot. Oak Hill, Circle C, Barton Hills, Sunset Valley, and Travis Country use this office.
Does the Southwest Parkway clinic have spinal decompression?
Yes. Spinal decompression is in Suite 101. It may reduce pain and improve function for some disc-related cases. It does not guarantee you will avoid surgery.
Can I get Knee on Trac for my back at the Austin office?
No. Knee on Trac is at Bee Cave and Buda only, and it is a knee device. The Austin clinic treats the low back with the tools in Suite 101.
What is included in the $98 visit?
Mention the offer when you book. Dr. Ho does the consult, the exam, one trial treatment chosen from that exam, and a findings review. Restrictions may apply. TexStar lists Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, United, Humana, Baylor Scott and White, Medicare, and Curative as in network. Benefits still depend on the plan. Call +1 (512) 899-2228 and say Austin if you want a benefits check first.
