Practising in his hometown of Calgary, Dr. Cosman provided care for athletes across various disciplines, including track and field, combative sports, hockey, swimming, diving, and water polo.

In 1996, Dr. Cosman relocated to Hong Kong, frequently collaborating with Dr. Don Nakaya Nielsen DC in Bangkok.

He also conducts CPD lectures and spearheads research projects on clinical advancements in movement science.
Today, the Cosman Health Group provides specialised care for athletes, families, children, and mature adults, focusing on circulation and recovery. Under Dr. Cosman’s leadership, the clinic adopts a collaborative approach, combining expertise, experience, and cutting-edge techniques to create personalised treatment plans. By 2015, the practice had integrated advanced recovery methods and therapies, including Stecco Fascial Manipulation®, Intermittent Vacuum Therapy, Biocybernetic Microcurrent Frequency Balancing, and neuro-myo-fascial movement science.
Dr. Cosman’s commitment to continuous professional development has allowed Cosman Health Group to establish effective care protocols, particularly for patients who have been labelled as non-responsive or clinically failed. The practice embodies a culture of advanced investigation, blending traditional chiropractic care with modern advancements in the healthcare industry.
In Hong Kong, chiropractic is a regulated profession under the Chiropractors Registration Ordinance (Chapter 428). To practice as a chiropractor, one must be registered with The Chiropractors Council, which oversees professional standards, registration, and disciplinary regulations. Statutory registration of chiropractors in Hong Kong began in 1993, ensuring high standards of care within the profession.
