Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, evidence-based treatment focused on the neuromusculoskeletal system—including the spine, nerves, muscles, joints, and soft tissues.
Physical Training
Alongside chiropractic treatment, we use targeted strength and conditioning programs to boost mobility, improve joint stability, and build long-term physical strength.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT®), is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that offers advanced, highly effective relief for musculoskeletal pain and soft tissue injuries.

Dr. Aoude was great! I went in to see him to help fix chronic lower back pain. I am already feeling results after one session. He showed me some exercises to do at home to help improve my condition and demonstrated real understanding of how to fix my condition. He also eased me into the treatment by not being too aggressive too quickly. I signed up for three more appointments and I am looking forward to working with Dr. Aoude long term.

I went for my first visit with Dr. George Aoude at West Roxbury Spine & Sport. It was wonderful, and I would definitely recommend him if you need chiropractic care. Dr. George took time to talk with me, get to know me and my reasons for being there, had me do some basic movements to check range of motion, talked to me about dietary things (he seems to know his stuff regarding nutrition, which is a big plus), and of course, did some adjustments on me. The place is quiet and clean, he is professional yet personable, and I left looking forward to my next visit. Dr. George gave me a good amount of tips from how I stand to how I sit, and how I sit when I am driving (I commute a lot). He clearly cares and wants to help patients be proactive. He made it a point to tell me that he hoped to facilitate my road to feeling better, not just have me come in for appointments & do adjustments and send me on my way. I got an email with stretches and yoga positions within about 10 minutes of leaving his office. I am writing this review the day after having met with him so I haven't yet opened the email to do the work he has assigned/ suggested to me. However, I will be getting to it tomorrow and, if that first visit was any indication, will likely be feeling very grateful that I have met Dr. George. If I can remember, I will update this review after a handful of sessions to see how I'm feeling then!
UPDATE: Well, a handful of sessions have gone by, I have opened that email I referred to in the original review, done the exercises/ stretches, seen Dr. George about 8 times now, and stand by everything Dr. George taking time to get to know patients, being professional yet personable, really knowing his stuff nutritionally & fitness-wise & (of course) chiropractially, and also how I would recommend him if you need care. Dr. George is EXCELLENT. I had seen three other chiropractors before him and he is hands down the best. I thoroughly appreciate his expertise and how he listens so closely before jumping into whatever I need for the day. Just to give you an idea of what I think of Dr. George, I've been driving from Plymouth to West Roxbury (about 75 minutes) during my summer vacation to see him. If that's not an endorsement, I don't know what is! Thank you, Dr. George!

I am very impressed with this chiropractic practice. Dr. Hannah Brucker did shockwave therapy on my back. I have seen a definite improvement in my chronic back pain. She is professional, engaging, and sincerely interested in the patient's progress. There is plenty of free parking 1 block away. I highly recommend this practice.

I feel so fortunate to have found Hanna Brucker at West Roxbury Spine and Sport. I have always been skeptical of chiropractors, but Hanna has restored my faith in the practice. She is so knowledgeable, with clear and simple explanations, and effective, direct fixes to whatever is ailing me. Rather than stretching out my visits over weeks and months, Hanna is always eager to get me healthy and on my feet and out of the office as quickly as possible. I have had nothing but positive experiences with West Roxbury Spine and Sport and I recommend them--especially Hanna--wholeheartedly and without reservation.

This is true patient-centered care, backed by extensive education and experience. I’m incredibly grateful for his expertise and compassionate work — thank you!

Hanna at WRS&S was my “Hail Mary”. After 3+ years of seeing other chiropractors, going to PT, and taking pain medication, I had given up hope that I’d ever be able to sit on the couch (let alone kick a soccer ball or do a workout) again. My back pain had completely prevented me from living the life I was used to for the better part of 3 years. Hanna met me where I was, listened intently, and provided a lot of knowledge & insight. We progressed from soft tissue work, to dry needling, to strengthening exercises and I feel better than I have in years. I’m able to exercise, play sports, wrestle with my kids, and lounge on the couch again. A true gift. A very huge added bonus that they accept insurance so all of this was affordable. So grateful I gave this place a try!

I’ve been incredibly pleased with the care I’ve received at West Roxbury Spine and Sport. Dr. Hanna is kind, thorough, and extremely knowledgeable. I originally came in seeking relief for mid-back pain, and I’ve experienced significant improvement—my symptoms have mostly resolved, and I now only come in for occasional maintenance visits. The office itself is clean, welcoming, and comfortable. I’m truly grateful to have found Dr. Hanna and this practice!

The BEST chiropractor I’ve been to in over 3 decades of being in different chiropractic care. Dr. George is so knowledgeable in his treatment and he finally solved an issue that happened over 20 years ago and other chiros never fixed. His techniques found my problem so quick. With the needling and strength training I am finally able to use muscles that were dormant and do movements with ease that had been so painful for so long. I could write a book on all the benefits of being one of his patients. I HIGHLY recommend him and I can’t express how grateful I am for my treatments with Dr. George!

Dr George is 1000% worth visiting. He is incredibly thorough, makes sure everything he does is comfortable, and most importantly FIXES THE ISSUE. I went in with server neck and shoulder pain to the point I had to turn my whole body to look in any direction. Within two visits my neck feels better than it has in a very long time. I can move it freely with no pain thanks to Dr George. His office is very clean and inviting, and there’s an awesome Lebanese food shop next door. I highly recommend giving him a visit. Thank you Dr George!!

I can't recommend Dr. George Aoude highly enough! I came to him with persistent back and neck pain that had been affecting my daily life and ability to sleep. From the very first session, Dr. Aoude took the time to thoroughly understand my specific issues, and his expertise and personalized approach made a huge difference. His adjustments and techniques have significantly reduced my pain, and he even took the time to teach me correct weightlifting postures to prevent future issues. Not only is he highly skilled, but he also genuinely cares about his patients' well-being and progress. If you're struggling with any kind of pain, especially sports-related, Dr. Aoude is the chiropractor to see!

I started coming to Dr. Aoude about a month ago when I had reached a point in my pain that the intensity couldn’t be managed by OTC or prescription nerve pain medications. I had read studies about the benefits of dry needling, and I was frankly desperate to try anything before committing to a cervical spine surgery.
I was impressed by Dr. Aoude’s approach to his practice- he did a thorough assessment before developing any treatment strategies, and he agreed to dry needling after evaluating my needs and conditions. I’m so happy to say so far after only 6 treatments of dry needling and adjustments my pain has gone from a constant 7-8 and my not being able to exercise or complete my work tasks to a manageable 4-5.
My sleep has improved, my ability to exercise and do the things I enjoy has improved, and I’m hopeful for maintained relief with the exercises and lifestyle changes he’s suggested.
If you’ve been nervous to try out a chiropractor or any of the services offered here, I feel confident recommending you visit for an evaluation. He is patient, knowledgeable, thorough, and makes you feel comfortable. You don’t feel like just another patient, you can tell he cares about helping you. The office is bright, clean, private, and convenient. Thank you Dr. Aoude!

I can't say enough good things about West Roxbury Spine and Sport! After breaking my elbow in December, I was struggling with physical therapy and felt discouraged by my slow healing process. My doctors even suggested surgery, but I decided to try a different approach with George at West Roxbury Spine and Sport, and I'm so glad I did.
From the start, George was incredibly friendly, caring, and supportive. He took the time to explain my options and helped me understand the treatment process. I decided to try shockwave therapy, even though I was initially hesitant because of the cost, I was ready to try anything, it turned out to be amazing! I tolerated the pain from the treatment well, and I noticed immediate improvements. My arm's range of motion increased significantly, and I felt like I was finally on the road to recovery.
The office is clean and quiet, and I always felt comfortable and confident in George's care. He truly listens and works with you to achieve the best results. I can't recommend West Roxbury Spine and Sport enough for anyone dealing with pain or injury. The investment was absolutely worth it, and I'm grateful for the progress I've made under George's guidance!

I had an old shoulder injury that was not going away. Two weeks before my vball USA nationals, I visited Dr. Georges and he was able to help me. Because of Dr George's diligent work, I was able to attend the national event. He understood the MRI, worked magically on the shoulder, gave me exercise at home, used a special machine to alleviate inflammation, and even KT taped my shoulder. I highly recommend Dr. Georges and I am very happy with the results.

I am so very happy and revealed (literally) that I found Dr. George at Spine and Sport! People have been telling me for a while to go see him and I finally pulled the plug! I went from having a lingering discomfort in my left hip/lower back area to having little to now no discomfort at all after being treated and learning from him how to help myself! He explains everything he is doing to make you feel comfortable, asks questions, and educates you on your own questions as well as giving you go home advice and directions! I will definitely continue to see Dr. George as needed and just to give myself a well needed oil change , no more feeling stiff and rusty!

Hanna was the key in my upper back strength journey. Her gentle but effective adjustments unlocked dominant muscles and cleared up my neck pain. Then from there my other muscles had better nerve signal and I could work on strengthening to keep my neck and shoulders happy long term. Thank you Hanna!

I have been a patient of Dr. George for many years. I recently hurt my back and really had no idea what I did. Dr. George was able to assess what he thought would work best based on what I have going on. Dry needling was amazing! He explained it all and it was virtually painless. He also made sure I knew what to do in between sessions to aide recovery. I appreciate that he does not make you feel rushed and genuinely cares. I can't recommend him & West Roxbury Sport & Spine enough!

I’ve been in pain with a slipped disc for 3 months. I’ve been to so many doctors through the health care system, and not to be a downer, but giving actual help seems to be far down on the list. I went to Dr George at the recommendation of my brother (and niece) and even after just two sessions I feel a relief I haven’t felt since I hurt my back. Professional, kind and authentic, Dr G has given me hope that finally in the right track.

Cannot recommend West Roxbury Spine & Sport enough. Dr. George is kind, professional, and knowledgable. Most of all, you can tell he really cares about what he is doing. He creates a treatment plan that includes exercises and stretches to do at home with a voiced goal that he wants pain to improve so that you do not have to keep coming back for treatment. I saw weekly improvement in my lower back pain and after incorporating dry needling, my pain is gone. I have been terrified to lift weights since injuring my back and have been able to get back to working out and lifting heavy since seeing Dr. George.

Dr. Hannah Brucker has been a godsend for me. I’ve tried many activities to relieve my pain from physical therapy, cortisone shots, dry needling, massaging to even other chiropractors and seeing Dr. Hannah has been by far the most beneficial service that has changed my life
I’ve had the unfortunate experience of 10+ surgeries resulting in chronic pain in my hips and knees. I love to workout aggressively but that ability had been stripped from me for years because of the previous injuries.
After only a handful of visits I have been able to get back into my jumping and sprinting exercises that Ive had to abandon for years. Honestly thought I’d never get to do them again without unbearable pain. I have increased my knee flexion that was stuck for years by noticeable amount of degrees allowing my hip and back to function much better. Could not ask for more especially in such little time.

Dr. Aoude makes amazing job. I'm 82 years old and I thought that I'll never rid from sciatica pain. Doctors couldn't help me and didn't give any real advise. I couldn't sleep, I walk with walker and spend half of night in the office chair. I can sleep only on the left side. All this last 8 month. Dr. Aoude helped me within one month. Now I can run little bit, I don't need walker any more. I started again lift weights. I sleep all night on the any side. So it looks that life some how come back. I couldn't think that all this will come back again and now I'm alive.
So, everybody who wants their life back set appointment with
Dr. Aoude and you will be happy that that you did it.

I’ve been going to West Roxbury Spine and Sport for about 2 1/2 months now and it’s been great. Dr George has been awesome! I came in for back pain and posture issues and I feel better than before. The tips and tricks he’s taught me and the exercises that he gives me as homework have helped a lot. I used to see another chiropractor and I thought he was good. But I must say, I think Dr George is better. I say that because it’s the exercises and stretches but also the equipment he has. I always leave there feeling great.

Dr. George is wonderful! I wish I had stopped living in constant discomfort and gone to see him way earlier. He has such a deep base of knowledge and took my insurance which was an extra added bonus! I’ve seen a few chiropractors, but Dr. George is the first to give me exercises to continue the work at home. I love how he gave me the exercises (with helpful videos) in an app that I could pull up anytime. The approach to chiropractic care seems modern and focused on the whole body as an interconnected system rather than simply the spinal adjustments. Case in point, Dr. George recommended a new pillow and CBD cream that are helping me tremendously along with the care he is providing in office. After my first adjustment the change in my body was immediate, and I’ve continued to improve and begin to better manage and isolate the pain with each appointment. I’ve been recommending WRSS to a bunch of friends already and I’m so glad that I found Dr. George!

I was really impressed that he takes the time to listen to your issues, perform a comprehensive evaluation, and crafts a treatment plan that goes beyond a typical chiropractic adjustment. He incorporates myofascial release, stretching, and strengthening exercises which is something I was specifically looking for. Working with him for the last few months has really helped ease my neck, back, and hip problems and enjoy the active lifestyle that I lead. I highly recommend Dr. George!
