In this episode of the ICA Sports and Fitness Science Podcast, Dr. Brant Hulsebus sits down with legendary sports chiropractor Dr. Nick Athens, whose career includes adjusting Joe Montana before a Super Bowl and caring for NFL star Christian McCaffrey.

Dr. Athens shares how one game-day adjustment earned chiropractic care millions in free publicity, opened doors for chiropractors in professional sports, and shaped the future of athlete wellness. He also reveals why 72% of pro football injuries are non-contact—and how chiropractic can prevent them.

Learn from a lifetime of wisdom as Dr. Athens discusses execution, mindset, and the importance of being “in the zone” both as a chiropractor and as an athlete.
