Dr. Jack Dolbin is a 1977 Graduate of the National College of
Chiropractic. Dolbin spent five years in the NFL. Currently, he is the
owner of Pottsville Sports and Rehabilitation Center, a multidiscipline
practice, employing chiropractors, physical therapists, and exercise
physiologists. He served on the staff of Villanova University sports
medicine team from 1993-2003. Call 570-622-7291 for more information.
Background
In the fall of 1993, I was attending a Villanova versus Northeastern
University football game. My son was a redshirt freshman wideout and me, a
retired NFL veteran. We sat together as spectators, dissecting the game
and the individual player performances. In events that would decide the
game, the Villanova field goal kicker, Frank Venezia, missed two very
makeable field goals. He pushed them off to the right and short. I told my
son he missed them because he was locked up in his lumbar spine and could
not rotate around the axis of rotation, the transverse plane. As a result,
Villanova lost the game.
The following Monday, I was treating patients when my secretary paged me
and asked if I could speak to Andy Talley. I recognized the name as the
head football coach at Villanova. Seems my son went to the coach and
relayed my thoughts on why Frank missed those field goals.
Coach Talley asked if I could come down the next day and evaluate Frank
and see if I could possibly correct the problem. I agreed to take the
afternoon off the next day and drive the 87 miles to the university to see
Frank. I did a basic chiropractic biomechanical exam, including the
kinetic chain, and made the appropriate corrections.
The next day, Coach Talley called again. Seems Frank, in practice after my
treatments, was pounding home 50 yarders. Coach Talley asked if I could
come down again Thursday. I treated Frank again and then adjusted him
before the Delaware game on the trainers table that Saturday. In the game
against their arch rival Delaware, Frank kicked two 53-yard field goals to
set a new school record. Villanova won the game.
The following Monday, the Villanova trainer, Dan Unger, called and asked
if I could, again, come down Tuesday. I agreed and rescheduled my
afternoon patients. When I arrived at the training room there were 11
athletes, including two swimmers, with various conditions wishing to see
me. There began a 10-year relationship with some of the finest athletes,
coaches, team doctors, and trainers in sports.
The following year, Villanova University put me on retainer and a
fee-for-service plan that was quite generous. The schedule was demanding,
trying to run a practice and still be at every game and two days a week in
the training room. But I hired an associate to help keep the ship afloat
at home and, over the years, I was responsible for more than 500 student
athletes in 23 varsity, division I sports, some of whom went on to the
Olympics, NBA, and NFL including my son.
