Doc Dossman is sport science physio from Long Beach, California. Huh? What? Yes, a "sport science physio".

What is a sport science physio? Glad you asked!

Overseas, the term “physio” is a word commonly used to identify the person that takes care of your body when an athlete is injured. This individual might be a massage therapist, a chiropractor, an athletic trainer, a physical therapist, an active release practitioner, an acupuncturist, or any other health care professional specializing in sports medicine.

A “sport science physio” is a valuable asset in the sporting world because they are somewhat of a HYBRID-practitioner. They can function as some or all of the above health care specialties, as needed. Rather than BEING a profession, they use the skill sets of these various professions as tools in a tool belt.

Professional athletes often travel with a physio. This is a very cost effective alternative to hiring an entire sports medicine team. Doc Dossman holds a doctorate in chiropractic medicine, a degree in biological sciences, and certifications in massage therapy, full body Active Release Techniques, and orthotics casting. He is trained in physiotherapy & post surgical rehabilitation as well as the application of various other tools collected over the past decade of experience traveling the world with his clientele of professional athletes...
