Dr. Gillman discovered chiropractic after a disabling back injury (karate) when nothing else helped. It's been a passion ever since.

Dr. Gillman began practice in 1991. While providing care to people of all ages, he developed interest and experience in treating athletes. Post graduate coursework soon followed, and he earned a Chiropractic Sports Medicine degree in 2005 (DACBSP). This led to participation at the Olympics in Beijing, China, invitation to work at events such as the Penn Relays, and to a rotation at the US Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.

Dr. Gillman is the only sports chiropractor in the Metrowest region with the DACBSP degree and with certification and training in Graston Technique, Active and Dynamic Myofascial Release Techniques, Kinesio-Tape, and custom foot orthotic evaluation and prescription. He continues to provide evidence-guided, patient-centered, and outcomes-based care.

Dr. Gillman has lectured to medical groups, corporations, at the US Olympic Training Center and at USA-Gymnastics National Congress.
