Dr. Chad Higdon

What patients most appreciate about Dr. Higdon is that he treats them as whole people, not just a list of symptoms. He listens, pays close attention to each patient’s health goals, then determines how he can help them achieve those goals while optimizing wellness.

Wellness was easy to maintain while growing up in Austin, where bountiful access to green spaces and hundreds of miles of mountain bike trails enabled an active outdoor lifestyle. The “Keep Austin Weird” culture made the “Live Music Capital of the World” a vibrant place for Dr. Higdon to develop into a healthy adult.

He was inspired to change careers and become a healthcare provider after fracturing his femur in a bicycle race, and being cared for through recovery and rehabilitation by an outstanding team.

Wellness for Dr. Higdon is the homeostasis of mind and body. An avid reader, he maintains his own wellness by reading 2-3 books every month, working out at the gym 5-6 days every week to prepare for competitive powerlifting.

Since earning his Doctor of Chiropractic degree, Dr. Higdon has treated over 500 patients by applying his specialties: McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy, chronic pain management, active and myofascial release techniques, geriatric wellness, orthopedics, prenatal care (including Prenatal-Webster Technique) as well as sports injury care.
