Dr. Todd has literally been a God send for me, I have spent many years of my life in great pain do to a neurological disorder and he's the only one who's been able to give me any kind of relief from my pain, but not just that. He has a great heart and truly cares about his patients and how they feel

I appreciate Dr. Todd listening to my problems before trying to fix me. I like how he gives you options to choose from. His pricing feels reasonable. I am in love with how I feel when he has adjusted my bones. I feel great like I can conquer the world, but the best part is that the feeling last my body is no longer hurting! Big shout out to Cindy his receptionist she is simply awesome! She's has such a friendly, loving and warm spirit.

I have to start off by saying that the staff was very nice, but the way they handled billing me was very frustrating and felt almost down right shady. I went for my first visit. They contacted my health insurance and said; Your insurance copay for a chiropractor is X amount. Perfect no problem I paid and left. Came back for my second visit and they took me into the office, adjusted me, then when I went to pay they said; Oh, your insurance does not cover us.
We are out of network. It is actually going to cost almost twice as much. They already had a bill written out with how much it would cost if I paid for it all then with a "cash discount" This is shady business practice. They could not mention this to me prior to coming in for my appointment? If they had I would not have come and found someone in network who costs less.
Just be aware and make sure to check your insurance before going in otherwise they may tell you one thing and then tell you something the next week and it cost your twice as much.

They provided a fantastic experience in every regard from customer service to treatment. Scheduling was incredibly flexible even with their offices being closed in the middle of the day, which I initially thought might be inconvenient. Right away, the doctor diagnosed a pretty significant problem I've developed over the course of what has likely been decades.
I had an additional problem that came up and they adjusted my routine to account for it immediately. They have a machine that rolls your back out after every adjustment, and honestly, I come out of my five minute appointment feeling like I just had a 45 minute massage. The doctor's assistant consistently approaches patients with a calm but upbeat energy and she gave me all my insurance and cost information up front for the rest of the year.
She'll even offer little tips that'll help in the long run, such as not sitting on your wallet, and explain their importance. I feel that I have a pretty good overview of what exactly they are doing and why it is necessary. Overall, they are efficient, thorough, pleasant, and I have zero doubts about their professional qualifications.

This review is definitely long overdue. I started visiting Dr. Todd back in May this year. My body was in desperate need of alignment and finding the right chiropractor is like finding a needle in a haystack. And I haven't had such great luck in finding the right chiropractor in the past. So I started searching and found Touch of Life. After reading all the positive reviews, something told me this was finally the place so I made an appointment.
My first appointment was amazing from start to finish. Dr. Todd was extremely thorough and took his time to explain everything during my visit and proceeded to give me my first adjustment. I was hooked. Every time I walk out after a visit with Dr. Todd and Molly, I always feel refreshed and have a sense of renewal. He and Molly genuinely care about your health. I am finally on the road to recovery and I know that I have finally found my forever chiropractor.

I was a bus driver and I got injured in my lower back and my right shoulder last year. For most of 2019 I was in physical therapy and pain medication and nothing changed, but a friend of mine told me about Dr. Todd and referred me to him, once I started to visit him my back pain was gone and now he is working on my shoulder and carpal tunnel in my wrists. A year after my injury, 80% of my injury is healed and I'm looking into going back to work. Thank you Dr. Todd for all of your help! Sincerely Elisa

I began visiting Dr. Todd at the recommendation of two friends who had nothing but awesome things to say about him. I thought I'd give it a shot and started by looking at reviews. I was a bit shocked to see 16 Google reviews with all 5 stars as I had never seen that before. Now I know why and happily contribute one of my own. Both Dr. Todd and Molly are friendly and awesome.
For the first time in many years I have had such significant relief from neck/shoulder pains that I am still in shock about it. Also, Im still blown away that from a handshake he immediately honed in that something was going on with my wrist (something I had issues with here and there but forgot to mention initially) and worked it out. I give them my highest recommendation.

Dr. Tim was so amazing. He helped my son overcome seizures as a baby so when his brother, Dr. Todd, took over the practice and advertised on Facebook for a low cost adjustment I was excited because I am suffering from foot issues and my son (now 11) is having low back pain. I have to say I am very disappointed. Took my son and we went in for the low cost adjustment. Dr. Todd will ONLY adjust what hurts at the time and will not give feed back or tell you a plan of action unless you come in again for a $100 appt.

Words can't even describe the experience I've had in seeking treatment with Dr. Todd. Dr. Todd and Molly have been extremely helpful in making my treatment plan run smoothly. Very personable. After a long search, I have finally found my chiropractor for life! Thank you Dr. Todd and Molly for all you do and helping me on the road to healing!

Dr. Todd Stranahan - is wonderful. since i was a new patient there, we went through medical history and stuff. i explained my being trans and on HRT, etc. he responded by saying that my identity and transition are respected and openly accepted at his office; asked if there was a name I preferred to be called, other than my legal name; and told me if there's ever anything he can do to make my visits more comforting to let him know. i was so happy after that. his honest expressions and tone of voice really made my visit comfortable.

I have been going to Touch of Life Chiropractic for several months now. I am so incredibly happy that I followed a recommendation to come see them. They genuinely care about their patients and it shows. I have Scoliosis and have had numerous back and knee surgeries because of it. Dr. Todd, Dr. Tim and Molly have been true life savers. Not only have they helped me with my back, they have helped me with nutrition tips and suggestions on how to help me have a better quality of life. I cannot say enough good things about this practice and will continue to come see them as long as I am in the Austin area.

They were really respectful and knowledgable. The office is not the prettiest, but it's practical. I am usually wary of checking out a chiro if they haven't been vetted by someone I trust, but Yelp was right on the money. I got a couple of solid adjustments that fixed me up, and there was no unnecessary pressure to book a bunch of appointments for multiple adjustments. I felt heard, respected, and treated with care. Nice!

Dr Tim, Dr Todd and Molly are awesome! Seriously. They have reduced all the chronic pain I have, plus they're fun, and they actually care about you as a person. They are not your average chiropractors. You have to go and check it out to believe it! Hours could be a little better, but they are worth it. 5 stars! 10 stars if I could!

I was diagnosed in 1997 with degenerative disc disease at 27 years old. I used to run, play softball and led a very active life. By March of 2000 I was taking OxyContin and Percocet 3 times a day to function and activity next to nothing. I had disc replacement at L4-L5 and L5-S1 with fusion in December 2000. Dr.'s told me I probably need more procedures in 7 to 10 years.
I was able to start activities again about a year or so after. I did go through some severe withdrawal from all the pain killers I had been on but I told folks I didn't want to ever get back them again. I began showing signs and symptoms of severe disc issues again and taking loads of ibuprofen and naproxen to lessen the pain. I definitely didn't want to get on the pain killers again.
Beginning in March 2008 I started to visit Dr. Tim and Touch of Life crew. With all there help I have been able to stay off the drugs and keep the medicine down to a minimum. They also help me through shoulder surgery done in October 2008 and a severe closed head injury in January 2010. I still deal with all the issues mentioned. Each time I come I leave feeling a whole bunch better then when I came in. Dr. Tim, Dr. Todd and Molly and all the other folks of Touch of Life have been a blessing for me. They are always patient and caring. I love you guys! You all rock! Carolyn aka CJ Ivey

Really great team here. The location used to be ideal for my work situation but I've had to move on. Dr. Tim and the staff were quick to help me find someone near my new work. I appreciate the gentle kindness of the Doctor here. I cannot forget to mention the great staff that make it possible. I recommend this office. Cons- parking is a little hassle, but it's not that bad.

While everyone has commented on how much Dr. Tim has helped them with pain, I'd like to touch on something else I think is fantastic. Though gentle, warm and friendly, Dr. Tim and his team are all business. If you are tired of waiting around in chiro's office for your turn to come, this is the place for you. I am generally in and out of the office in about 5 minutes.
There is no skimping on the treatment, they've just got a great set-up and don't waste any of your time. I love that, after the first appointment, I don't even have to schedule a time to come in anymore. I just show up any time during their office hours and they are ready to help. And I feel much better when I walk out!

I sought treatment for lower back and shoulder pains. My body was misaligned and since I have had therapy with Dr. Tim Stranahan and his staff, I feel 100% BETTER! I'm walking straighter, my joint and shoulder pains are gone. I have recommended Touch of Life to members of my family and friends. I am very pleased with the friendly staff and excellent care that I have received. If you need a chiropractor, you won't be disappointed in the care you'll receive from Touch of Life!

We have been seeing Dr. Tim for over ten years now. Chiropractic has been my modality of choice throughout my entire life. Function follows form! Dr. Tim has been a wonderful asset to my health and my children's health. He kept my son from having tubes in his ears and a sinus irrigation at age 4. He continues to entertain my teenager while ticklling my preschooler off the table (she doesn't want to leave).
The office ladies are wonderful help with the kids and just friendly. This is a family practice where there are smiles all around. The friends I have referred there have loved it too.

Dr. Tim Stranahan has gotten me out of pain in the joints of my neck, despite severe arthritis and a disk that is almost gone, and despite 10 years of severe pain prior to coming to Touch of Life. Over the past few years, he has healed my sprained ankles, sprained wrist, and twisted knees, so that they healed in days rather than weeks, and sometimes felt better after one treatment.
My back has not gone out in almost a year now, thanks to him, and knock wood. The massage practitioners at Touch of Life have been equally miracle workers in my life, and I am very thankful for their help. Dr. Tim's support staff are always cheery and helpful; they will always work with you to make sure you get the help you need. I have been severely injured by chiropractors, and have seen over a dozen in my life. It is not lightly that I recommend a chiropractor, and I recommend Dr. Tim Stranahan and Touch of Life unreservedly.

Dr Tim has taught me so much about taking care of my body. For 15 years I have had chronic fibro-myalgia and pain from scoliosis. I am only 35 but I was struggling to do even simple household chores after work because of the fatigue and pain. I was taking ibuprofen everyday (which was hurting my stomach!) and sometimes experienced depression from being in pain all the time.
The worst part was feeling like I couldn't do the simple things (like vacuuming) without pain when other people seemed to do it with ease. Through consistent treatments over the past couple of years, along with following Dr. Tim's lifestyle change recommendations, my life has changed completely. I now go entire days pain free and have regained a lot of my independence.
I can vacuum with ease and even go for long walks. My strength and stamina are 100 times better than before. I am so grateful for Dr. Tim and his kind staff (who are exceptional!).

I can't say enough about Touch of Life - Dr. Tim has worked wonders for my back over the last several years. His office staff is nothing short of amazing also. they are so friendly and genuinely interested in how you are doing and what's going on in your life. The office is super-chill and flows quickly once you sign in and are placed on the massage table that gives you about two minutes of roller bliss prior to seeing Dr. Tim. if you ask nice they may even let you go twice! Dr. Tim will then give you an adjustment after checking in with you about how you are doing and send you on your way with a friendly see in two days or next week or whatever he feels is necessary for you to get the treatment you need.
They also offer Pilate's and massage treatment plans if you need further work beyond chiropractic care. Honestly, I can say my quality of life has greatly improved since I began going to Touch of Life. I wouldn't have it any other way!
