The Missing Piece in Athletic Performance | Alignment, Recovery & SoftWave Therapy

Why do so many athletes stay injured despite training harder than ever? In this episode of Uncomfortable by Design, we sit down with third-generation chiropractor Dr. Colton Westerbeck from Concise Chiropractic to break down the hidden factors limiting athletic performance. We dive into how spinal alignment, nervous system function, and recovery protocols directly impact speed, strength, mobility, and long-term durability in sport. Dr. Westerbeck explains the Gonstead chiropractic method, why elite athletes prioritize proactive care instead of waiting for pain, and how technologies like SoftWave Therapy are helping athletes recover faster and perform at higher levels. Whether you’re a competitive athlete, parent, coach, or weekend warrior, this conversation challenges common beliefs about training, injury prevention, and performance longevity. Topics Covered: • Why athletes stay injured without realizing it • The Gonstead Method explained • Chiropractic care for performance vs pain relief • Nervous system impact on athletic output • Recovery mistakes young athletes make • Growth spurts and injury risk • SoftWave Therapy for recovery and healing • Building durability for long-term performance 🎙️ Uncomfortable by Design explores the habits, decisions, and truths required to perform at a higher level in sport and life.

Different Pitches, Same Passion: A Global Career with Shaina Ashouri

In this episode of Uncomfortable by Design, we sit down with Shaina Ashouri, a professional soccer player whose career has been shaped by resilience, adaptability, and a willingness to step into the unknown. Shaina shares what it really looks like to build a career in professional soccer. From navigating different leagues and countries to staying mentally grounded through uncertainty, setbacks, and constant competition, this conversation goes beyond highlights and stats. We talk about: * What the pro grind actually feels like behind the scenes * The mental discipline required when nothing is guaranteed * Playing abroad and adapting to new cultures, systems, and expectations * Confidence, identity, and learning to stay ready when opportunities are unpredictable * Why growth often comes from discomfort, not momentum This episode is an honest look at what it takes to sustain a career at the professional level and how embracing discomfort becomes a competitive advantage, on and off the field. This one is for athletes, coaches, and anyone navigating high-pressure environments where comfort isn’t an option.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
