The Doctor
Dr. Tina P. Grau
Dr. Tina Grau, D.C. Graduated from Texas Chiropractic School in 1984 and has been practicing for over 35 years. She is a certified Advanced Biostructural Correction or ABC (™) Practitioner for over 16 years. She is also an Applied Certified Clinical Nutritionist, certified McKenzie Practitioner and certified Pranic Healer. She is a prior Designated Doctor with the state of Texas for a period of 6 years.
A resident of San Antonio, Texas, since 1988, Dr. Grau has a deep love and passion for her community. She established Stone Oak Chiropractic in 1998 to help people in her community to find healing, balance, and joy in their lives through chiropractic.
Dr. Grau not only understand her patient’s health problems as a professional, but she also understand their pain first-hand. Her personal healthy journey has been filled with struggles and after 20 years of practice it was declining to the point where she considered changing professions. That is when she embarked on a learning journey to search for new techniques to aid the body in healing itself. Networking with other professionals, Dr. Grau learned of Advanced Biostructural Correction (™). After witnessing outstanding results no only in her patients, but also herself.
Furthermore, her experience has taught Dr. Grau to take a highly individualized approach. She realizes that each patient has unique needs and no single approach is the right way for every patient. For Dr. Grau, her patients’ health takes priority. Thus, she strives to ensure that all her patients receive the quality of care they deserve and that best fits their needs.
She believes in the concept of “Kaizen” or continuous improvement. This improvement includes improvement with staff, teamwork in communication, suggestions for improvement, and seeking new treatment possibilities to better serve her patients
