Athletic performance & injury prevention · Alpharetta, GA
Built to move. Built to last.
Most athletes don't think about their nervous system until something goes wrong. By then, they've already been compensating — moving around a dysfunction, loading a weak pattern, asking their body to perform through tension it was never meant to carry.
Confianza Wellness works with athletes at every level — recreational, competitive, and student — across three areas: nervous system care through chiropractic, tissue recovery through StemWave acoustic wave therapy, and movement quality through ATG-based performance training. Not as separate services, but as a coordinated approach to keeping athletes healthy and moving well.
The approach
Three things working together
Injury prevention, performance, and recovery aren't separate goals. They're the same goal at different points in the timeline.
Nervous system care
Chiropractic adjustments using Torque Release Technique address the neurological tension that affects how your body moves, recovers, and responds to training. A well-functioning nervous system is the foundation everything else builds on.
Tissue recovery
StemWave acoustic wave therapy supports tissue healing at the cellular level — addressing chronic tendon issues, muscle adhesions, and areas of poor circulation that don't respond well to rest alone. Used by professional sports teams and increasingly by serious amateur athletes.
Movement training
ATG (Athletic Truth Group) methodology focuses on rebuilding the ranges of motion and strength patterns that protect joints over time. Knees over toes training, hip and ankle mobility, and progressive loading — done in a way the body can actually absorb.
Who this is for
Athletes at every level
You don't have to be a professional athlete to benefit from professional-level care. The body doesn't distinguish between a college soccer player and a 40-year-old who runs half marathons — both are asking a lot of their joints, nervous system, and soft tissue.
What matters is whether you're moving well, recovering between sessions, and building in a direction that's sustainable. If any of those feel off, that's worth looking at.
Student athletes
High school and college athletes under significant training load and competitive pressure. Injury prevention matters here more than anywhere — one avoidable injury can change a season or a career.
Competitive athletes
Runners, CrossFit athletes, cyclists, weightlifters, team sport players. Athletes who train consistently and need their body to show up reliably — not just perform, but recover.
Recreational athletes
Weekend warriors, hikers, golfers, pickleball players. People who want to stay active through their 40s, 50s, and beyond — without accumulating the wear and tear that sidelines them.
Chiropractic care
Your nervous system is your performance system
Athletic performance isn't just muscular — it's neurological. Reaction time, proprioception, muscle activation, and coordination all run through the nervous system. When that system is under tension, it affects everything downstream.
TRT chiropractic care reduces the interference that keeps the nervous system from functioning at its best. For athletes, that means better movement patterns, faster recovery between training sessions, and a body that responds more accurately to what you're asking it to do.
It also means addressing the compensations that build up over time — the asymmetries and movement workarounds that don't hurt yet, but will. Catching those early is what prevention actually looks like.
Injury prevention
Movement compensations don't announce themselves until they become injuries. Regular chiropractic care helps identify and address dysfunction before it becomes a problem.
Recovery support
A well-regulated nervous system recovers faster. Athletes under heavy training load often notice improved sleep and shorter recovery windows with regular care.
Movement quality
Neurological tension affects how the body moves. Addressing it often improves range of motion, joint mobility, and movement efficiency without any direct structural work.
Therapeutic exercise
Dr. Jen incorporates therapeutic exercise and movement guidance within her scope of practice — bridging the gap between chiropractic care and training.
Performance training
Strength that protects
Most training programs build fitness. ATG methodology builds durability — the joint strength, tendon resilience, and range of motion that lets you train hard for years without accumulating damage.
Knees over toes
Joint strength through full range
The ATG approach trains the knee, hip, and ankle through ranges most programs avoid. Loading these ranges progressively builds the tissue strength that protects joints under athletic demand — and reverses the patterns that cause chronic knee and hip issues.
Bulletproofing
Tendon and connective tissue resilience
Tendons respond to specific loading patterns — ones that most training programs don't include. ATG methodology addresses patellar tendon, Achilles, hip flexor, and shoulder health directly, building the resilience that prevents the overuse injuries that end seasons.
Mobility first
Range before load
Athletic movement quality depends on having the range of motion to move well before adding intensity. Training that skips this step builds fitness on a compromised foundation — which is where most overuse injuries come from.
Progressive loading
Building in a direction
ATG training is systematic. Each phase prepares the body for the next. For student athletes and competitive athletes managing heavy schedules, having a structured supplemental program that builds rather than depletes is the difference between thriving and grinding through a season.
How performance training works at Confianza
Performance training at Confianza is integrated with chiropractic care — not a separate gym program. Movement assessment and training guidance happen in the context of your overall care, so what you're building in the gym is coordinated with what your nervous system and joints can actually support.
StemWave therapy
When tissue needs more than rest
Some injuries don't resolve with time. Chronic tendon issues, plantar fasciitis, shoulder impingement, and areas of scar tissue often reach a plateau — the acute pain subsides, but the tissue never fully recovers.
StemWave uses acoustic wave technology to stimulate the body's own healing response in these tissues — increasing circulation, breaking down adhesions, and triggering the cellular activity that drives actual tissue repair.
For athletes, StemWave is particularly useful for the chronic, nagging issues that accumulate over years of training — the things that aren't bad enough to stop you but are limiting enough to affect performance and that don't respond to standard care.
Tendon issues
Patellar tendinopathy, Achilles tendinopathy, rotator cuff, and tennis elbow — conditions that often plateau with conventional care.
Plantar fasciitis
One of the most common and stubborn athletic overuse injuries. StemWave has strong clinical evidence for plantar fascia treatment.
Muscle adhesions
Areas of chronic tension and poor tissue quality that restrict movement and limit athletic output even when they aren't painful.
Post-event recovery
Used by professional sports teams for accelerated recovery between competitions. Increasingly common among serious amateur athletes for the same reason.
Get started
Not sure where to start?
A discovery call with Dr. Jen is a good first step — especially if you're dealing with something specific or aren't sure which service makes the most sense. New patient chiropractic visits are $185. StemWave consultations are $165. No referral needed for either.
