What does a chiropractor actually do?

A chiropractor identifies and corrects spinal misalignments—called subluxations—that can interfere with your nervous system function properly. Through precise adjustments, chiropractors restore proper alignment, improve mobility, and help reduce pain naturally, without medications or surgery.

Can a chiropractor help with more than just back pain?

Yes. At Body Traxx Chiropractic in Pflugerville, we help with neck pain, sciatica, headaches, shoulder pain, Carpel Tunnel Syndrome, joint stiffness, poor posture, and more. Chiropractic care supports your entire musculoskeletal and nervous system.

Are Chiropractic adjustments safe?

Absolutely. When performed by a licensed professional like Dr. Jeffrey G. Boerger, D.C., Chiropractic adjustments are safe, gentle, and highly effective. We use techniques tailored to your body type, age, and condition.

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

No referral is needed. At Body Traxx Chiropractic you can walk in when you’re ready to start. Open Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 10am to 7PM and Saturday 10 to 2.

How many chiropractic sessions will I need?

Everybody is different. Some patients feel relief after 1–2 visits; others benefit from ongoing care. At Body Traxx, we create personalized plans based on your condition, lifestyle, and health goals—never a one-size-fits-all approach.

What should I expect during my first visit?

During your first visit to our Pflugerville chiropractic clinic, you’ll receive a full consultation, spinal assessment, posture screening, and (if appropriate) your first adjustment. Dr. Boerger will answer all your questions and explain each step clearly. You will not need to remove clothing during your exam, except maybe a coat or heavy sweat shirt.

Is chiropractic care good for athletes or active people?

Yes. Chiropractic is excellent for athletes, runners, gym-goers, and anyone with an active lifestyle. We help improve flexibility, reduce injury risk, and speed up recovery after workouts or sports. Body Traxx Chiropractic currently has many athletes from local High Schools to minor league teams.

Can kids or seniors benefit from Chiropractic care?

Definitely. At Body Traxx, we offer gentle pediatric adjustments as well as safe care for seniors. Chiropractic is beneficial at every stage of life—promoting growth, function, and better balance.

Where is Body Traxx Chiropractic located?

We are conveniently located at: 1010 Old Austin-Hutto Road, Pflugerville, TX 78660. Just minutes from Hutto, Round Rock, and North Austin.

How do I schedule an appointment?

You don’t need an appointment at Body Traxx Chiropractic—we’re a walk-in clinic! That means you can come in whenever it works best for your schedule. We're open Tuesday through Thursday from 10 AM to 7 PM, and Saturday from 10 AM to 2 PM. The office eats lunch from 2–3 on weekdays. If it’s your first visit, we kindly ask you to come in before 1 PM or before 6 PM to ensure we have enough time to give you the full care and attention you deserve before we close.

Do chiropractic adjustments hurt?

Most patients feel relief right away, though some may experience mild soreness—similar to starting a new workout. At Body Traxx, we always adjust based on your comfort level and explain every step before we begin.

What should I wear to my chiropractic appointment?

Comfortable, loose-fitting clothes are best. You won't need to undress for your visit—just avoid overly tight outfits or bulky jackets. If needed, we’ll simply ask you to remove a coat or sweatshirt.

Birth Trauma & Newborn Chiropractic Care

Birth Trauma

Healing the First Journey: Addressing Birth Trauma in Newborns 👶🍼

Imagine spending nine months in a perfect, warm, secure environment—only to be suddenly squeezed through a narrow opening into a cold, noisy, and brightly lit room. 😳 It is a massive transition!

While birth is a miracle, it can also be a physically demanding event. For many newborns, the process of entering the world can cause the very first “subluxation” (misalignment) of their spine. At Body Traxx Chiropractic, we help infants recover from this initial stress so they can start their lives with a healthy, clear nervous system. ✨

How Does Birth Trauma Happen? 🏥

While every birth is unique, several common factors can lead to spinal stress in a newborn:

Positioning: Most births occur with the mother lying down rather than squatting, which can limit the natural use of gravity. 📉

Medical Interventions: The use of forceps or vacuum extraction can involve pulling and twisting, which may cause overlooked injuries to the delicate newborn spine. 🛠️

Pain Management: Certain medications used during labor may hinder the mother’s ability to push, potentially increasing the pressure on the baby.

The “Hidden” Effects of Newborn Subluxations 🚩

When a newborn’s spine is misaligned, it can disrupt the vital communication between the brain and the body. If left undetected, this nerve compromise may make it harder for your baby to adapt to their new environment.

Parents often notice these “red flags,” which may actually be linked to birth trauma:

Colic & Extreme Irritability 😭

Digestive Issues & Reflux 🤢

Breathing Disorders 💨

Difficulty Sleeping or Settling 😴

Failure to Thrive 📉

Early Signs of Learning or Developmental Disorders 🧩

Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Newborns? 🌸

This is the most common question we get, and the answer is a resounding YES! ✅

Chiropractic care for infants is incredibly gentle. To give you an idea of the pressure we use: it is often no more pressure than what you would use to test the ripeness of a tomato. 🍅

We don’t “crack” newborns. Instead, we use light, precise touches to encourage the spine to align, allowing the baby’s nervous system to function optimally. This helps your baby feel more comfortable, sleep better, and thrive. 🌟
