Richard Seibert has been involved with athletics and its interplay with the healing arts for most of his life.
As a member of 4 international U.S. weightlifting teams he trained with and competed against athletes from all over the world. Traveling to Greece and Hungary for the World Junior Championships, he observed training techniques (once formerly known as "Russian training secrets") that would later evolve into a methodology for treating the most difficult low back conditions.
Later, as a resident at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, he was able to see and learn the most sophisticated techniques for treating sports injuries in the United States.
In 1986, he completed his Doctorate of Chiropractic and opened his private practice. Post-graduate certificates from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (1989) and the ACA Sports Council (Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician, 1995) were to follow.
In the summer of 2005, Dr. Seibert was selected as team physician of the World University Cup Team for USA Weightlifting that competed in Villaneuve-Loubet, France. The team ws extremely successful, with the women's team winning 1st place and the men's team placing 2nd.
Dr. Seibert continues to compete at the Masters level and lectures on a variety of topics including sports injury prevention, nutrition and rehabilitation.
