Two Austin chiropractors say in their own words that they’re gay and want LGBTQ+ patients to feel safe: Clay Craig at BirthCo. on Burnet Road and Dakota Raabe at Airrosti in North Austin. A third practice, Inner Sun Chiropractic on West 6th, has a written policy that names sexual orientation and gender identity. Three more appear in LGBTQ+ directories.
All six hold an active Texas chiropractic license, which we checked with the state board on October 13, 2026. We aren’t clinicians, and this page isn’t medical advice. Our How We Choose page explains how we check listings.

Chiropractors Who Say It in Their Own Words
Clay Craig at BirthCo.
On his OutCare profile, Clay Craig lists himself as gay and writes, “I provide a safe space for non-traditional families seeking care like families with two dads or two moms, single parents, non-binary individuals, gender queer individuals, and transgender individuals.” He says he has also built “a referral network of queer and queer-affirming birth providers,” including doulas and lactation support.
His focus is pregnancy, babies, and kids, and BirthCo.’s own pages are written for “moms.” Craig’s profile says his goal is to treat “all individuals and families.”

A Practice With a Written Policy
Inner Sun Chiropractic
Inner Sun publishes an anti-discrimination policy, last updated May 31, 2026. It “prohibits discrimination or harassment of any kind” based on a list that includes “sex, gender identity, or gender expression” and “sexual orientation.” The policy covers “patient care and service delivery,” says management will see that employees get anti-discrimination training, and tells you to report a problem to the management team.
The policy doesn’t cover intake forms, pronouns, or restrooms, so ask about those.
- Where: 1211 W 6th St, #800, Austin 78703. (512) 708-0905
- Hours, as listed: Monday to Wednesday, 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM and 3 to 6 PM
- License: the practice’s current site doesn’t name its chiropractor. Its older site names Zachary Bloom, and Texas lists license 16141 for Zachary Benjamin Bloom, active, expires March 2027
- Book: Inner Sun Chiropractic; the policy is on its accessibility and policies page

Listed in LGBTQ+ Directories
These three say little or nothing about LGBTQ+ patients on their own sites. Each appears in a directory meant for us, which is a smaller signal than a statement.
HealthFirst Spine & Wellness

First Chiropractic
First Chiropractic has a listing on GayPages, a directory of businesses that sign up as gay-friendly. The listing says Jerel Wottrich “has been providing chiropractic care for LGBT patients in the South Austin area” for almost three decades. The practice’s own site doesn’t mention LGBTQ+ patients, and we couldn’t confirm who wrote the listing.
- Where: 2121 E Oltorf St, Suite 2, Austin 78741. (512) 448-1012
- License: Texas chiropractic license 02911 for Jerel Kenneth Wottrich, active since 1982, expires September 2028

Before You Book
Chiropractic care is hands-on. Ask before the first visit:
- Your name: will my chart and intake form use the name and pronouns I use? What goes on an insurance claim?
- Touch: will you tell me what you’re about to do before you do it, and can I say no to any of it?
- Clothes: what will I be asked to wear, and can I keep a binder or a shirt on?
- Experience: have you worked with trans patients, including people who bind or have had surgery?
- Cost: what do the first visit and each later visit cost? Do I have to buy a package?
- Who: which chiropractor will I see, and what’s their license number?
You can look up any Texas chiropractor yourself with the state board’s license search. It shows whether a license is active and any disciplinary action. The same board takes complaints.
If what you want is massage, our guide to LGBTQ+ massage therapists has license checks too. For a doctor or a clinic, start with our LGBTQ+ healthcare guide.
What We Couldn’t Check
We didn’t visit these practices or get adjusted, so nothing here is a first-hand review. The old version of this page described a visit to Inner Sun. That visit never happened, and the copy is gone.
No practice prints a license number on its site, so we matched each license by name. Two records show a different city from the Austin office: Bee Cave for Clay Craig and Burleson for Zachary Bloom. We checked only the chiropractors named here, and each practice may have others.
We also couldn’t confirm restrooms, intake forms, or staff training at any of them, beyond what Inner Sun’s policy says. Whole Family Chiropractors and The Joint were on the old page. Their sites say nothing about LGBTQ+ patients, so they’re off the list.
Hours, prices, and insurance change. Call to confirm.
Last checked: October 2026. Practice details read from each practice’s own site and directory profiles on October 13, 2026. Licenses searched in the Texas Board of Chiropractic Examiners verification portal on October 13, 2026. We recheck health pages every six months.
