| The wellbody business... wellbody has no financial incentive, voting ability, or policy making in the business or contracts made between teams and their athletes, customers, or partners. There is no financial transaction between wellbody and the owners, coaches, athletes, or booster clubs for wellbody's services or the relationship between wellbody and the teams. (Optional lectures and classes may have a fee that is explained at the time of the specific event) wellbody is an independent service that is not an employee, agent, partner, or owner of any of the teams. Although wellbody does not involve itself in the policy making or philosophy of the individual teams- each of the team's owners have discussed their philosophy with Dr. Goldstein before wellbody involvement. There is no absolute guarantee that any premier level sport is free from injury or risk. Each athlete and parent should carefully evaluate their goals and expectations before making a commitment to any team. wellbody assists teams in preventative injury care and healthy options during sport- but does not guarantee any sport or team is injury free, risk free, or the best choice for your child. wellbody does believe participating teams offer premier level sports in an ethical, fun environment. Careful evaluation is made to see that wellbody's philosophy continues to support each team's philosophy before continued participation. There is no contract or obligation for wellbody to continue its services with any club or team. Individual athletes receiving care from Dr. Goldstein have a patient/physician relationship following the policies of the Kansas Board of Healing Arts. |

Some clinicians might say, “Take two weeks off, and you will feel better.”
That seems obvious- anyone can tell you that in two weeks of rest, you will feel better—in fact, most
people in the work-force would desire such a two week break! How many of their managers would
agree, “Sure, take two weeks off!” How many of these people taking such a break would remain as
sharp or productive as their working colleagues? Coaches play the same role as a manager-
demanding excellence, good attendance, and daily progress.
It takes a pediatrician with a sports medicine interest to get a young athlete back as quickly
as possible, while still staying safe and remembering the athlete is a growing adolescent.
wellbody offers injury prevention, rehabilitation, and healthcare for young athletes!
wellbody takes pride in caring for today’s and tomorrow’s champions.
wellbody. Premier level healthcare for premier level athletes.
