Josh has a strong love of powerlifting and one of the most famous power lifting gyms is Westside Barbell in Dayton, Ohio. Their logo has a bull breed on it. When Josh got his first bulldog, he named her Lou, after the legendary owner and coach, Louie Simmons.

Bulldogs are often associated with traits such as strength, determination, and a distinct appearance. They are commonly recognized for their muscular build and also their tenacity and courage. Josh may have been compared to a bulldog once or twice. But bulldogs are also friendly, loyal and can be gentle - applying just the right amount of pressure that the situation calls for. Bulldog Manual Therapy hopes to alleviate your pain so that you can improve your strength and performance and get a little bulldog fight back in you.

Why the name Bulldog Manual Therapy?
