One day out of nowhere my right shoulder started hurting. After two days  it progressed and then to a point that I lost range of motion and it was difficult to even lift my 3 month old daughter. My biggest fear was that I had done something terribly wrong and my shoulder would be this way forever. I hoped by not moving it would get better on its own but it didn't. I also used some heat and ice off and on but that only helped temporarily. I chose to call Dr Russell because my sister had great results by coming to him and she recommended me going immediately. I was able to call and make an appt for the next few days which gave me relief that I would get help. Dr. Russell was very patient and thorough. He listened very well and asked very specific questions to understand my problem. He genuinely cared. After he tested out my range of motion and understood my pain, he showed and explained to me exercises to help my shoulder. I started that same day and within a few days my pain was gone and I was gaining my range of motion back. What Iiked best about going to Dr Russell was his continued follow up of my problem. I was able to discuss with him how my exercises were going and he gave me advice on which ones to continue and let me know it's okay if I couldn't do one.

I highly recommend everyone going to see Dr Russell as he is passionate about his work and caring about his patients! Also he gets the job done! I was back to my normal life within days of seeing him!

I cannot say enough positive things about Phoenix Osteopractic Physical Therapy -specifically Russell. As a mother of six with a hectic lifestyle, I've encountered my fair share of back issues, from the mundane to the running (marathon)-induced. Russell has been an absolute lifesaver, literally!

Whether it's a kink from sleeping awkwardly or a more serious strain from training for the Dallas Half Marathon, Russell's expertise and genuine care have consistently shone through. In just one or two sessions, he has managed to alleviate my discomfort and set me on the path to recovery.

What truly sets Russell apart is his dedication to his patients' well-being. He doesn't just treat the symptoms; he genuinely wants to see improvements in your quality of life. Russell doesn't stop at the clinic door; he provides personalized homework, including specific stretches. He offers in office miracle workers like dry needling, tailored to your needs. And let me tell you, it works wonders!

What's more, Russell's follow-up care is exceptional. He checks in regularly to ensure you're keeping up with your exercises and that your progress is on track. Thanks to his guidance, I was able to not only recover from my injury but also complete the half marathon I'd been training for, with confidence and without pain.

In short, if you're in need of top-notch physical therapy, look no further than Phoenix Osteopractic Physical Therapy. Russell's expertise, compassion, and dedication will undoubtedly make a positive difference in your life. Highly recommended!!!

My husband received excellent care from Russell Darrington. He evaluated and kept him involved in the process. He listened to his goals and set a plan to help him get well. He also gave him ways to alleviate pain when he did experience it. Professional yet kind.

My back was hurting me very bad after  a recent accident. Only after 3 visits I’ve seen great  improvement . Russell is very professional, takes his time in explaining what needs to be done and you don’t feel like you’ve been rushed. Very relaxing environment. I definitely recommend this practice.

Meeting with Russell and getting educated on what he does was very refreshing. He shared with me the treatments he provides and how it helps me with my conditions. Extremely informative and Russell took the time to really explain things and answer my questions. What I enjoyed the most with my visit was how thorough he was with what was going on with my shoulder.

He also gave me various options, treatments and suggestions and even things I can do on my own. Russell was very open with his explanations. There were several things that were new to me and he took the time to explain them and answer my questions. He also used 3D models to explain and show what was going on with my shoulder.

His location is conveniently located at the Northwest corner of the 66 and Dalrock. Furthermore, his facility is located right inside of a workout gym and patients are able to step right into the gym if needed. He has state of the art equipment and additionally, for gym goers, if they need it, Phoenix is right next door to Ecel gym for their benefit.

Overall, I had a great visit with him making for an excellent experience. 👍👍

First of all I don’t usually spend my time writing reviews, the good or bad ones.  However, I feel compelled to write this one if only because it can help other people as much as it helped me. I am a healthcare worker and due to my job of 14 years I developed chronic repetitive shoulder and neck pain. And so I have been to multiple different PT’s, Arriosti, deep tissue massage places, etc. I  have tried enough stuff to know what is good and works and most of these didn’t work out for me either due to barely any one on one time with you (i.e physical therapists, Arrositi) and you spend a good amount of money for that little time…however, It can be good for those that have less pain and less injury to deal with. And although deep tissue massages can help, if you don’t find a way to add the Physical therapy to strengthen your body it will only be a very temporary solution, esp. if have a job where the option to quit is not there right now. I was tired of going to these same people and spending so much money throughout the years and not retaining much from it.
So I knew I had to look for a more holistic practitioner that could see the whole picture and not only concentrate on the instant problem but have the ability to look at everything connected to it, and I was honestly surprised to find that with Dr. Darrington. He is up to date on research and what the best options are, he quotes it all the time, lol. You don’t have to share his time with anyone else and tt’s completely one on one for the whole hour. He’s quite literally a Physical Therapist, Massage Therapist, Acupuncturist, Fitness Instructor, and Chiropractor all rolled into one!
His one session with dry needling and massage therapy on my shoulder and neck fixed 75% of my pain that I dealt with for a whole year. I thought the only way to fix my pain would have been surgery, but it turned out it was mostly muscle related, and in just one session a lot of my pain was gone, which btw did not happen with any of the others. He is a little more expensive than other options, however with his knowledge and time spent with you when I calculated it, probably saved me hundreds if not thousands of dollars already. Completely and totally worth it! Not to mention he is very kind and more importantly pays attention to what you say and sees the whole picture. Go for it, totally worth it! You truly get what you pay for in every sense.

Russell Darrington was recommended to me by other patients of his, and I'm so grateful to have found him. After seeing so many doctors thought I was going to just live with back pain. He not only identified the areas that could help, he also told me what to do when it was hurting. He developed a physical therapy and exercise regiment that helped accomplish the goal of no more pain. He also helped with my neuropathy and balance and has worked with my doctors to improve my well-being overall. He did dry needling which really helped get the pain in check while he worked on the areas that contributed to the pain. He also did the other wave therapy that helped alot as well. Basically, he went to the root of all the problems and improved life for me. I recommend Russell to anyone. His empathy, professionalism and skills are outstanding.
