Dr. Stuart Brimmell, D.C.
What I do:
I have
been a chiropractor for 35+ years. I have committed that
time serving patients. I practice gentle hands-on spinal
adjusting and personally provide adjunctive soft tissue
services (trigger point therapy, thumper massage and
ultrasound), custom foot orthotics, supplementation
recommendations and lifestyle advice. I strive to take the
necessary time with my patients and I am open to their
needs.
What I
like:
When I am not providing
chiropractic care, I enjoy relaxing, spend time outside,
camp, hunt, fish, run and I enjoy just about all sports.
I’ve completed and have my personal best marathon time in
the Boston Marathon. I’m a good homemaker too!
Where you’ll find me:
I'm not in the clinic, you will find me outside
somewhere or on my couch :). |

Dr. Crystal Russak,
H.B.K., M.H.S., D.C.
What I do:
I have always
been passionate about a holistic approach when taking care
of the body. I believe that in order for us to thrive we
must have the perfect balance of clean nutrition, proper
biomechanics, and a thriving environment. I like to keep
up-to-date on the newest research on how to maintain this
balance and never stop learning. I look at the body as a
whole and work with my patients to connect all of the parts
through nutrition (and supplementation), diversified
adjustments and chiropractic care, and lifestyle
modifications.
I have an honours bachelor of
Kinesiology from Lakehead University and master of health
sciences in clinical nutrition and doctorate of chiropractic
from Northwester Health Sciences University. I have been a
licensed chiropractor since 2018.
What I like:
Love travelling, the water, hiking, and taco night
with margaritas :).
Where you’ll find me:
If I’m not at the clinic I am probably planning a trip or on
one! I may also be out at camp with friends and
family...trying to convince them where we should travel to
next.
