Headache & Migraine Care
Chiropractic care for headaches in Southlake.
Most headaches that bring patients to our Southlake office are not coming from the head. Tension headaches, cervicogenic headaches, and a large share of migraine patterns start with restricted joints in the upper neck and tight muscles at the base of the skull, often after years at a desk, in a car, or on a course.
Dr. Tupper assesses how your neck actually moves, then treats what he finds: targeted adjustments to restore motion, and Functional Stimulation Release (FSR) Therapy to release the muscle layers that keep pulling the correction back. Patients typically report fewer headaches and less intensity when they do arrive, without daily medication.
Signature Technique
Functional Stimulation Release (FSR) Therapy.
Functional Stimulation Release (FSR) is Dr. Tupper’s own technique. It numbs, contracts, and stretches individual muscle layers while he releases adhesions from injury or repetitive stress. The result is layered, precise work that addresses what conventional deep-tissue and adjustment-only approaches often miss.
Patients return for one reason above all: he focuses on solutions, not on lengthy treatment plans. A 1997 graduate of Parker College of Chiropractic, Dr. Tupper has practiced across rehabilitation, multidisciplinary clinics, family medicine, pain management, and neurology, and has taught medical students at The University of Texas School of Medicine in San Antonio on evidence-based chiropractic care.
Beyond Adjustments
StemWave & Class 4 Laser Therapy, for the injuries that need more.
Dr. Tupper integrates StemWave acoustic-wave therapy and Class 4 Laser Therapy photobiomodulation into care for tendon, joint, and sports injuries, the pickleball, golf, and tennis patterns we see most in Southlake.

Common Questions
About chiropractic care at EMTX.
+Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor in Southlake?
No referral required. Submit the form or call 817.552.4300 and our concierge team will schedule you, usually within the same week.
+What makes Functional Stimulation Release (FSR) Therapy different from deep-tissue massage?
Functional Stimulation Release (FSR) numbs, contracts, and stretches individual muscle layers while Dr. Tupper releases adhesions from injury or repetitive stress. It is more layered and more precise than conventional deep-tissue work.
+Is Dr. Tupper a good fit for sports injuries?
Yes. Dr. Tupper has worked with athletes, executives, and patients in chronic pain for more than two decades, across rehab clinics, pain management, family medicine, and neurology settings.
+Can chiropractic care help my headaches?
Often, yes. Tension headaches, cervicogenic headaches, and many migraine patterns trace back to restricted neck joints and tight muscles at the base of the skull. Dr. Tupper assesses the neck in motion, then combines adjustments with Functional Stimulation Release (FSR) Therapy to reduce both how often headaches happen and how hard they hit.
+How long does a typical chiropractic visit take?
Plan on 45 to 60 minutes for your first appointment: a full assessment, then treatment the same visit. Return visits are shorter and still never rushed.
Southlake Back Pain & Neck Pain
Southlake chiropractic near you, for back pain that keeps coming back.
