Fourth season
Team chiropractor for the Wheeling Miners
Now in his fourth season, he works with the team on and around game day at WesBanco Arena in Wheeling, WV to keep players on the field and to address injuries quickly when they happen.
Before the Miners
Before the Wheeling Miners, Dr. Getzik was team chiropractor for the Wheeling Nailers of the ECHL, the premier professional hockey league, and for the Washington Wild Things in minor league professional baseball. That background in contact and high-impact sports shaped how he examines and treats the spine and joints under real load.
