Review: I have mild scoliosis and I came to Dr. Russell hoping I would find some relief. It has been about 6 months and I am amazed at how much better I look and feel. I am much more comfortable and I feel a sense of balance that I haven't felt in my body for a long time. I can even physically start to see the changes as my posture is getting much better and my shoulders are evening out. Overall I feel a lot less pain, balanced, and much more relaxed. I have even been feeling an improvement in my sinuses since I have started treatment. Since coming to Hometown Wellness Center I can confidently say I know I am on my way to better health!

Review: I strongly recommend Dr. Brokstein! I have seen several doctors within the past year, and he was the only one who was able to help me. One of the most caring doctors I've seen! =)

Review: I injured my neck several years ago and initially went to an MD. I was given muscle relaxants and was told I should go for physical therapy if I could afford it since I had no insurance. I was also diagnosed with high blood pressure and lectured on the dangers of salt and soda two things I repeatedly told them I rarely used. I was given prescription blood pressure medication but when I complained it was making me dizzy I got laughed at and was told to "stop taking it, that's the lowest dose possible." I had seen chiropractors before but never achieved the great results that I do with Dr. Russell. I can turn my head! I don't wake up in the middle of the night with my fingers tingling or my arms 'asleep'. In addition he's very knowledgeable about nutrition, vitamins and exercise.

Review: For the past 15 years I have been a faithful chiropractic patient and will be for the rest of my life. After an automobile accident, I began having headaches almost daily. A friend suggested I try chiropractic. During the last 15 years, because of moving or insurance changes I have had to change facilities and my doctor a number of times. Therefore, I have had the opportunity to experience various techniques as well as the overall chiropractic care given by different doctors. Doctor Russell has been the first to address complete body wellness. He has a genuine interest in his patient’s health and well being. He is well informed and takes his time with you. Before each adjustment he takes the extra time to stretch my muscles, which I feel has helped me achieve greater range of motion and less pain throughout my body. Doctor Russell has also helped relieve the pain in my foot and shoulder. The therapy he provides me has become an integral part of my well being and my quality of life has greatly improved. I cannot thank you enough!!!!

Review: I’ve had chiropractic treatment before and always happy with the results, but the treatment Dr. Russell involves to actually correct the problem as much as possible…amazes me. From my lower back pain, to knee problems, and a pulled hamstring, he strives to find the cause of the problem. I never knew foot, ankle and knee problems could cause lower back problems, and could actually be addressed thru chiropractic. Other chiropractors just adjusted the spine, where Dr. Russell found imbalances in my ankles, feet, knees and hips and then adjusted those too.

Review: We started going to Dr. Russell for 2 reasons….I was so stiff and had lower back pain, and my wife had just had a baby and was experiencing some hip pain, leg pain and upper back stiffness from carrying the baby and breastfeeding. The initial chiropractic exam was so thorough and every detail of our problem was explained. We began care and after following the chiropractic treatment plan described, we have seen a world of a difference. Rather than covering up our problems with medication, we decided to take our health into our own hands and get the underlying problem addressed with Dr. Russell’s treatment. From the adjustments, to being therapeutically stretched and being advised on exercise therapy, we are able to enjoy our daily activities again.

Review: I started getting pain in my legs back in November, and after being referred to Dr. Russell, I decided to give him a shot since I was told he does extra therapy and types of treatments than other chiropractors. I was previously going to another chiropractor for years, but when these additional pains started and getting little relief…then going to an orthopedic doctor, being diagnosed with spinal stenosis and getting no relief with pain killers and muscle relaxers not to mention the side effects of the medications, and acupuncture with no results, I decided I had nothing to lose by trying Dr. Russell’s treatments. After the first treatment, I started noticing a difference and experiencing results. It was the best decision I made.

Review: I originally started going to the chiropractor when I was 6 months pregnant with my second child. I had pain and numbness in my right leg and hip. The symptoms subsided once I began chiropractic care. I have been receiving chiropractic care since then, with Dr. Russell. I have had several of my ongoing ailments alleviated with the treatment. Dr. Russell has helped me with my wrists, knees and neck problems. The care that I receive helps me in all areas and keeps me from using motrin so much. Bonus…Dr. Russell is great with children. Thank you Dr. Russell!

Review: After starting treatment with Dr. Russell about a year ago, for neck/shoulder pains and pain in the lower back…over a course of treatment set up by Dr. Russell after a complete evaluation, the original “pains in the neck” were relieved as were the lower back pains. Unfortunately for me, my job engenders a large amount of stress that results in knotted muscles in my neck, not to mention the aches and pains of driving a car for 4 to 5 hours a day. I continue to see Dr. Russell on a maintenance basis for the manipulation and stretching regimen he puts me through. For the most part, whatever pains I come in with, I leave on the chiropractic table. I am extremely grateful for the relief of aches and pains Dr. Russell gives me, not to mention the enjoyment I have just talking with him. Dr. Russell is a fine person in addition to being a gifted chiropractor.

Review: I have been in at least a few motor vehicle accidents over the years and I work at a desk 40 to 60 hours each week. I have neck and low back issues that are chronic. I have been to several chiropractors throughout NJ and have friends and family who have also. Dr. Russell is by far, hands down the best! Most thorough! Most personable! Chiropractor I’ve ever been treated by or known. Life’s events brought us together in an unusual manner but it has been a tremendous blessing! I am so greatful!

Review: Dr. Russell has greatly helped me in my overall health goals. When I first visited him, I was suffering from headaches, neck stiffness, and extreme hip pain. After the initial therapy, and now the maintenance program…all my pains which are worse in the winter months, are now all but gone!!!! Hurray – the stiffness in my other joints are gone or less frequent. Dr. Russell has greatly improved my overall physical health and my mental health immensely since I don’t have to deal with the pain.

Review: I had never visited a chiropractor before, but after putting up with back pain for years which was affecting most of my daily activities, I decided to take Dr. Russell up on his complimentary consult offer. After the thorough exam, and being explained what was the true cause of the problem, it made total sense to correct it. Every aspect of treatment was explained to me, and Dr. Russell made me feel so comfortable. The low back pain and tingling/burning down my leg subsided, and I gradually got motion back. What I thought was part of aging…boy was I wrong. I can now enjoy normal activities without the pain.

Review: During the school year I have seven classes, and all of these classes require me to carry large text books. Throughout the course of the year I began to get excruciating back and shoulder pain, which lead to painful headaches. After coming to the office for chiropractic my pain has been reduced by over 75%. I highly recommend Dr. Russell as the chiropractor to go to in the Freehold area.

Review: I have great trust in Dr. Russell. I have a herniated disc in my lower back. At night my legs bothered me so much that I couldn’t sleep. Very soon after starting with Dr. Russell, my legs calmed down and my pain improved. He is highly ethical, very caring, extremely knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. Although I am very skeptical of any doctor, I have a lot of confidence in Dr. Russell’s skills and integrity and I highly recommend him…
