George Russell has years of experience and an impressive range of techniques at his fingertips. But what sets him apart from most body workers is his extraordinary combination of intellect, intuition and touch. George is practical and down-to-earth, with a good sense of humor. Yet he also has a rare gift. And it is no hyperbole to call him a healer.

George Russell saved my athletic life ( more than once), and now enables me to lead it.
I first came to George, years ago, for an injury I'd sustained mountain biking. No one had been able to address it. After more than a year of treatment with other practitioners, I still moved gingerly. Then a random recommendation from a practical stranger set me straight. I came to George. We worked together. He fixed me. I forgot I had a problem. Period.
Since then, I go to George whenever I have an injury (frequently) and for maintenance in between (regularly). His brilliant, sensitive, intuitive and powerful

George has been treating me for almost 20 years. Much more than my medical PCP, George keeps this 78yo body moving. He's what I call an intuitive healer - based in an incredible amount of technical (i.e., anatomical, physiological, psychological, to say nothing of spiritual) knowledge. And George is the most selfless healer I've known: he never fails to offer and facilitate my seeing another provider if he thinks that's what I want/need.

George Russell is a gifted and compassionate healer with a wonderful sense of humor too. He intuitively zeroes in on what is causing pain and then gently combines an impressive array of chiropractic, bodywork and movement techniques to treat it. I have been seeing George for over 10 years and he is the first person I call whenever my back reminds me it needs attention. I can’t recommend him enough. You will leave with a smile on your face, feeling better and genuinely cared for.

George Russell is an unparalleled body worker. I feel safe physically/mentally/spiritually every time I am in his presence/office. Dr. Russell is unlike any other chiropractor in the city, with impeccable listening skills and attention to detail--I felt like all of my concerns were heard and understood. He has such an acute and holistic understanding of the human body - I felt like every single part of me inside and out was taken care of!

I have been seeing George for more than 15 years. His unique combination of abilities as chiropractor, massage therapist, and teacher have proven invaluable in keeping me healthy and agile. He is caring, gentle and remarkably intuitive. Like the proverb about teaching someone to fish rather than giving them a fish, he has helped me to understand my body and to learn the stretches and exercises which I can do at home to keep me pain free. I recommend him without reservation.

George Russell is competent and effective in so many healing modalities, I find it hard to adequately describe his techniques. All I know is that when I have issues ranging from back, hip, knee and sciatic pain to problems with various organs, to energy imbalance, a session with George is an invaluable realignment to access healing and balance. I have regular appointments with him and recommend him highly to others.

My parents were among the very few people around who used chiropractors as early as the 1940s and 50s. So I grew up familiar with chiropractic adjustments and as an adult I've been a patient of at least six different chiropractors in the various cities where I've lived. I know what I'm talking about when I say that Dr. Russell is unique in every sense. I've been a patient of his on and off for many years and have only good things to say about him.
I know that Dr. R. was a professional dancer before he became a chiropractor. He has a deep working knowledge of body mechanics

I highly recommend Dr. George Russell. He worked wonders on my body and soul. He has great insight into the body and how it works and how everything interacts. I love that he is not one of the many Chiropractors that spend three minutes with you and tell you to comeback three times a week. He approaches the whole person--not just snap, crackle, pop, next-- he spends quality time with you and truly listens to you. Again, highly recommend! Give him a try; you won't regret it!!

As an ex professional athlete I experienced severals chiropractors and ostheopatic doctor treatments. Dr George Russell is extraordinary and he helped me immensely in few sessions. He is not the standard chiropractor "one in one out" but he works on fascial stretching and on my fascial release to balance the body. the adjustments are gentle and minimal. Higly Higly raccomanded.
