Since graduating with her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from National University just last year, Liron Saletsky, DC, is already living her dream focusing on pediatric and perinatal chiropractic at Revolution Chiropractic in Jacksonville, Fla.
Like the athletes who train for years to make it to the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, the process to become a member of their elite medical staff can be just as selective and competitive. NUHS Florida faculty Carlo Guadagno, DC, CCSP ®, ICSC, FICC, who has participated on the medical staff of numerous Olympic qualifying events, including the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janiero, understands what it takes to work alongside the world’s top athletes. Most recently, Guadagno alongside Michael Stern, a student in the chiropractic medicine program, served as members of the medical staff for the USA Track and Field Olympic Trials last year in Eugene, Oregon. Guadagno also served as a provider to the USA bobsleigh and skeleton team as they prepared to compete for medals at this year’s Winter Olympics in Beijing during their World Cup Tour stop in Sigulda, Latvia. According to Guadagno, chiropractors play a crucial role in helping athletes achieve that extra edge it takes to win gold. Sometimes all it takes is being a thousandth of a second faster or being able to jump a hundredth of an inch higher. “In addition to several years of experience, you have to be a jack of all trades,” Dr. Guadagno said. “One of the key ingredients that makes chiropractors so desirable to athletes is that we can assist in the field, on the court, on the greens, on the sidelines; the only tools needed may just be our hands.” If working at the Olympic Games is an eventual career goal of yours, Dr. Guadagno shares 5 tips students can practice early on to help them get there.
