I can't say enough great things about Dr. Russell Brokstein. He truly is the best chiropractor! I was struggling with sciatic pain, and he helped me get real relief when I needed it most. He has also helped me when my neck hurt. He's knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely cares about each patient's well-being. I highly recommend him!

I went to Dr. Brokstein over a month ago due to painful sciatica flare-ups and frozen shoulder. Since I have been going for treatment, I haven't had any more sciatica flare-ups and my frozen shoulder issue has improved. I noticed also my posture has gotten better. I highly recommend Dr. Brokstein!

I've personally been to a few chiropractors before I went to Dr. Brokstein, and I can say with full confidence that my experience here was drastically better than any other place I have been to. He took a tailored approach to properly address my issues and I felt a real difference.

Dr. Brokstein is the best chiropractor my husband and I have ever gone to for our back problems. I feel like a new person after every adjustment. He gave me some stretching exercises to do from his website that really helps with my desk-job lifestyle. His approach is truly holistic and I give him a 10/10 recommendation!
