Client Stories


Steven Rivas:

Caleb was amazing! I had some shoulder pain for a few weeks and after one session with him I felt better than ever. He was very thorough with our assessment, not only did he take a look at my shoulder but he assessed my entire body and its movements. Through doing that we were able to find that I had some other issues and we worked on those parts and I started having better movement all around. He is very passionate about his work and it definitely shows in the outcomes of his patients. Highly recommend checking out Own Your Health Physiotherapy, you won’t regret it!


Isylma:

I first met Caleb when my daughter had a foot injury and he was able to help her heal from that in a much shorter time than we'd thought. He was so great with her. He's patient, kind, understanding, and really explains things in a way that makes it easy to understand. As a parent, I appreciated that. I, myself, have been diagnosed with multiple issues which include rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. Caleb was treating my husband. On one of the visits for him, I had been having a particularly difficult day. My hip was in excruciating pain, kept giving out on me, and I could barely walk. He said he may be able to help and I figured why not. The next morning after my session I woke up with zero hip pain, could walk again, and felt better with my overall pain. I was amazed. I have since continued to see Caleb and what a journey it been. My health and quality of life are so much better. After every single appointment, I have become stronger and my overall pain has lessened. I truly believe that Caleb's purpose on this earth is to help people heal. He has such a gift. If you are struggling with any type of pain and have found no relief, know that there is hope. Caleb has truly changed my life and I am certain he can do it for you as well.


 

Nick:

Shout out to Caleb at Own your health. I was dealing with a pretty bad back injury and after 4 sessions I’m back to nearly 100%. He has been a game changer for me and my wife really!


 
 

 

Katie:

I was lucky enough to work with Caleb on an ongoing ankle issue. After spending literal years in variable amounts of pain ranging from slightly annoying to entirely unbearable, Caleb was the first person to provide real solutions. I’d seen pediatrists, an ortho, other PT’s, and a surgeon none of which was able to provide in years the relief that Caleb provided in months. Caleb managed to hear clues in things I said that I didn’t even know were there. Obviously it is a great relief that I was able to solve my problem, but the standard of care Caleb works with is unmatched. I don’t know that I’ve ever worked with another healthcare provider that listens as attentively and takes my concerns so seriously. He was confident and encouraging even when I was ready to give up and cut the whole foot off. I only wish I’d skipped all the years of trouble and gone to him straight away. You would be hard pressed to find anyone better to help you.


Pat:

I'm 36 old, with a long history of beating myself up through sports and other physical activities. 3 years ago, I twisted wrong and a chronic back pain started in my lower left back. After failing to see lasting progress/relief with other physical therapists, chiropractors, or even acupuncture specialists, I found Caleb Dotson through a referral. The guy took a genuine interest in getting my pain to go away. When the first couple things he tried didn't do it, he'd show up to the next appointment having done research on another potential cause. Now, for the first time in years, I'm seeing lasting relief. I can't thank him enough.
Added note... Caleb is extremely professional as well. Absolutely will recommend him to anyone looking for a good physical therapist.


Kylee:

Honestly cannot recommend [Own Your Health] Physiotherapy enough!! It is amazing how he looks at the whole body and how everything is connected and works together. I have been dealing with Plantar Fasciitis & low back pain for years and have seen AMAZING results from working with Caleb. If you are in pain at all I HIGHLY recommend working with him, you will not be disappointed!


Sandi:

I have been a patient of Caleb's and I have never met anyone who does what he does. He has a very professional but friendly manner and has corrected so much on my body. You will NEVER be sorry seeing this man. He is a God send. Thank you Caleb for all you have done for me.


Beth:

Gratefully I have found relief from pain, I was told, I would live with permanently. If pain relief and mobility are a priority to you, then make an appointment now! It is worth every penny!


Nicki:

I have been working with Dr Dotson for several months. His approach to healing is different than any other doctor I have worked with and it has been life changing. He looks at the body as a whole and how systems work together or compensate for each other, this is something I could never find with any other doctor. By doing this, small things that I didn't even realize were part of my problem have been addressed and overall my pain is so much better than I realized it could be. I 100% recommend him! If you have any pain you have not been able to get resolved give him a call and see if he can help you!!


Karla:

I HIGHLY recommend [Own Your Health] Physiotherapy if you are seeking a very high quality physical therapist!! I’ve lived with chronic back pain for way too many years, thinking it was normal for me. I’m happy to say that after working with Caleb Dotson, I can see that chronic pain doesn’t have to be normal for me or control what I do, or can’t do. I finally took the plunge and accepted that I needed help in regards to reducing my pain, and I’m so happy I did!!!


Sara:

Regular physical therapy can be great for most people.  I understand that.  It just wasn’t working for me.  That’s why I decided to try out [Own Your Health] Physiotherapy.  It’s been great!  During the Health & Goals Strategy Session Caleb really listened to me; encouraged me to dream big with my goals, and sought to understand why my goals are so important to me.  He really made me feel like a person instead of just a patient.

Then, the physical therapist came to my house, saving me from needing to drive.  During the evaluation he was very thorough and even found something in my back that I hadn’t been aware of.  He then took the time to help me understand the anatomy of this issue in my back and the multiple factors that, like straw on a camel’s back, likely contributed to it occurring.  After that he taught me how to address it and what signs could indicate it had become a bigger problem, re-assuring me that it wasn’t something to stress about unless these signs appeared.

One thing that has really stood out to me is the teamwork I feel with my physical therapy sessions.  During the start of every visit Caleb takes the time to see how I’ve been since our last session and what my priorities are for the current one.  He asks questions to make sure he understands and then we make a rough plan for that day’s priorities.  Working together he is super patient and really wants to know my thoughts and questions. 

If you haven’t been thrilled with physical therapy in the past or keep putting it off because of the hassle, I suggest you call [Own Your Health] Physiotherapy.  They are super kind, caring, and convenient.



Brandi:

I hurt my heel playing soccer, a week before an important tournament. [Own Your Health] Physiotherapy got me in on a last min cancellation. Had a great session and got me where I needed to be to play. Talked me through everything he was doing and why and tips on moving forward. I will highly recommend them moving forward!


Chris:

“I cannot express enough the optimism Caleb Dotson has given me as I look into my future!  Initially I contacted him for help with my hip and knee pain.  During our Health & Goals Strategy Session, I shared my struggle with incontinence since giving birth, several decades ago.  This problem has caused me to slowly eliminate enjoyable activities from my life and has led to embarrassing experiences. He informed me that, while he would be able to help with my knee and hip pain, it was most important to work with a specialist on my pelvic floor dysfunction.  He then connected me with a local specialist. 

During Caleb’s evaluation, he was able to predict patterns of weakness and tone just by looking at how I stood.  More importantly, he was able to communicate how we would be able to address these problems and how they would help me get back to jogging and cross-country skiing with confidence again! 

Originally I had hoped to avoid surgery and possibly see some improvement in my incontinence issue.  Instead, I am back to jogging without knee and hip pain and am looking forward to skiing and riding horses without the embarrassment of incontinence in the future.   I am amazed how knowledgeable and helpful Caleb has been, even this soon into working with him!”


Jake:

“I went to see Caleb when he was working here in Klamath Falls, OR. I had a shoulder replacement and was sent to a different PT. It was not working out well with that person, and I ended up getting in to see Caleb. It was absolutely the best thing that could have happened for me in my recovery process. His knowledge and above all else his work ethic in wanting to help me get better was amazing. I have had many surgeries, and in turn been to many PT's... Caleb is without a doubt the best! My shoulder feels as good as it has since I was 19 and I owe this in large part to the help Caleb gave me. I will forever be thankful of the time and effort Caleb put in to helping me get back to being active!!!”
