LOCAL CHIROPRACTORS WRESTLE THEIR WAY TO SUMMER OLYMPICS
Lake Hallie chiropractors Kevin Schultz and Drew Kaminski will travel to London this summer for the 2012 Summer Olympics to work with United States contestants participating in Greco-Roman style wrestling. Schultz and Kaminski will give athletes routine back adjustments before and after events from July 27 to Aug. 12. In preparation for these duties, they’ve been traveling with the Olympic wrestling team for the past two years. Both run chiropractic practices in Lake Hallie, and Kaminski has done work with the Chippewa Falls wrestling team for the past three years. “The training involved was extensive,” says Schultz, “Any doctor that’s going to be working with an Olympic athlete has to be certified in... the five essentials: nutrition, exercise science, detoxing, specific chiropractic adjusting, and the ‘maximized mind,’ which is basically having a positive winning mindset.” Above all, Schultz is most looking forward to “being able to not only have this experience, but to be up close and personal with the Olympic athletes and see what they go through on a day to day basis.”
