Phillip Gilliam- Sports Medicine Servant of the Injured
PRESIDENTS-MESSAGE200
Originally from the city known as one of the top 10 markets for business relocation and expansion, Phillip Gilliam has added to the success of the state. Born March 6, 1959, he has made a significant contribution to the sports medicine community.
In his youth he fell in love with sports and science, the two areas which set the foundation to his destiny.
Phillip went to Morgan State University where he obtained his degree in Physics and Engineering.
Phillip patented his Antibody Sports Garment on September 28, 1999 (U.S. Patent 5,957,878). It was shortly afterwards when he connected with a tailor to begin making his invention. He used to keep all the prototypes under his bed in a clothing bag as if the Russians or Spectre (James Bonds' movies) were coming after what God has given him. His first client was the Head Athletic Trainer of Baltimore Ravens. They believed in him and what he was doing and allowed him to use it on Michael Jackson from Southern Mississippi University and they worked! The Ravens had officially become his first steady client.
Phillip built a relationship with NovaCare Rehabilitation/Select Medical and continued from there to reach out to others from Universities to NFL teams, and even some High School Affiliations. Originally these were 25% of his customers. The other 75% were just average people who are trying to protect themselves or their children from injury.
On September 28, 2010, the same day as his previous patent, Phillip was awarded his SECOND patent for his device the Sisyphean Chamber (U.S. Patent 7,803,092B). This chamber would be used as the perfect device to work upper and lower body strength, balance, center of gravity, stamina, and endurance while incorporating a cardiovascular workout. He has received letters of interest from the U.S. Naval Academy, the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the Detroit Lions.
If you would like to book Phillip for a speaking engagement or just touch basis with him about his products and insight on sports medicine, you can do so by sending an email to pgilliam@antibodywear.com. He would love to hear from you and have your support.
The following is a reply from Antibody to our question – "Are your products Made in the USA?"
How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.
We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.
To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.
What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.
Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
