**THE SHORT VERSION:**
Doug brings 16+ years of physiotherapy experience; from hospital trauma units in the UK and Ireland to helping athletes and active adults get back to the sports and activities they love.
His approach? Hands-on treatment combined with education so you actually understand what's happening in your body. Because real recovery starts with knowledge, not guesswork.
**WHAT DOUG TREATS:**
- Sports injuries (climbing, running, wrestling, dance—you name it)
- [Post-surgical rehabilitation](https://dynamicphysiookotoks.ca/pages/conditions-we-treat) (orthopedic, spinal, joint replacement)
- Chronic pain and persistent issues
- Muscular imbalance and movement dysfunction
- Injury prevention and performance optimization
**DOUG'S APPROACH:**
Education-first: You'll leave knowing why you're in pain and how to fix it; not just what exercises to do.
Holistic treatment: Combines manual therapy, IMS/dry needling, exercise prescription, and lifestyle factors (sleep, stress, work habits) to address the root cause.
Collaborative: Works with you, not just on you. Your goals, your timeline, your body.
**DOUG'S PHILOSOPHY:**
"At the end of the day, we all want peace of mind and control when it comes to our injuries. That starts by understanding what's actually going on."
What this means for you: You're not just a shoulder or a knee. Doug helps you connect the dots between your pain, your lifestyle, and your goals; so you can stay healthy long after treatment ends.
**WHEN HE'S NOT IN THE CLINIC:**
Doug is a mountain enthusiast who's hiked and camped everywhere from the Cordillera Blanca in Peru to the Japanese Alps. He, his wife Laura, and their three boys (Owen, Kieran, and Chase) recently moved to Okotoks and are excited to explore the local ranges.
If you need someone who understands the demands of an active lifestyle—because he lives it—Doug's your guy.
