072. Pushing The Boundaries In Physical Therapy, Hybrid Bodywork, Neufit - Dom Pelosi
In this interview, I met with one of the world's best bodyworkers, Dom Pelosi. Dom has a unique background as he has been a competitive bodybuilder for several years. Although Dom still participates in bodybuilding at a high level, he pivoted a long time ago into bodywork, starting with stretch therapy, massage, and IASTM certifications. Most of Dom's clientele were pro athletes and bodybuilders, people with some of the most exaggerated injuries you're ever going to find. Although Dom was getting good results with many of his clients, he felt he wasn't making permanent or long lasting change. This led him to going down the rabbit hole, exploring more hybrid modalities like electric stimulation therapy such as the Neufit (which you might be familiar, because I interviewed the founder Garrett Salpeter a few episodes back), cupping, gua sha, dynamometer, metaphysics, frequency specific micro current (FSM), red light therapy, and much more.
Dom blends all these modalities together in what he calls hybrid bodywork, and the results are amazing. Because of his background and having done it so long and worked on so many elite athletes for such a long time, Dom is intuitively able to diagnose problems at a faster degree, which is why he's so good at getting people back faster so they can do what they do best, perform at the highest level. Dom is so good, he even works with pets and dogs and is able to get them rehabbed from common ailments found in aging dogs like hip issues.
