Meet Jena Hansen-Honeycutt
Doctor of Athletic Training • Medical Qigong Practitioner
Bridging disciplines. Strengthening foundations. Helping clinicians work and live with coherence.
For years, I worked at the intersection of high-performance sports medicine and embodied healing, often feeling like I had to choose one lane.
I never could.
Instead I found pathways to keep learning as I was deeply curious about how others were experiencing their own mind and body. I learned their techniques and can see the threads connecting them.
What I’ve come to understand is that beneath the wellness and rehabilitation and beneath Chinese medicine are shared organizing principles. Different languages. Same underlying structure.
My work is rooted in translating those principles so clinicians and bodyworkers can move beyond technique accumulation and into deeper discernment so patients can move forward and choose their best path.
Because giving from depletion is not sustainable.
And working without internal coherence eventually shows up in the body.
Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed, drained at the end of the day, or just not like yourself anymore. This was where I found myself, and primarily I loved the language and practice of Chinese medicine to move me towards a healthier version of myself.
My Background
I hold a Doctorate in Athletic Training a post-professional clinical degree in treatment and rehabilitation of athletic injuries.
Over more than a decade, I’ve specialized in injury rehabilitation for dancers and performing athletes.
Alongside my Western training, I became a Medical Qigong Practitioner and deepened my study of somatic regulation, movement neurology, and principle-based healing systems.
My advanced training includes:
Doctor of Athletic Training (Sports Medicine)
Advanced Breathing Pattern Re-education (Dissertation Focus)
Applied Movement Neurology – Level 2
Total Motion Release Certified
Primal Reflex Release Technique – Level 2
Mulligan Mobilization Training
Mckenzie Training
Medical Qigong Practitioner
Rather than separating these disciplines, I integrate them.
Biomechanics informs internal organization (your emotions/energy) .
Breath informs posture.
Strength informs regulation.
Chinese medicine informs structural thinking.
The result is work that is both precise and deeply embodied.
What I Teach
When we work together, you learn to:
Understand the principles organizing movement
Regulate your system without force
Recognize and shift chronic bracing patterns
Build strength that supports longevity
Work from coherence instead of depletion
This is not about fixing yourself.
It is about refinement.
It is about sustaining your capacity over time.
Why This Matters
Healthcare professionals and bodyworkers are often trained to assess and intervene, but not to track their own internal organization while doing so.
Over time, this creates subtle depletion.
My work helps bridge that gap.
Not through spectacle.
Not through performance.
But through steady cultivation and practice.
You deserve to feel whole.
Because your work asks much of you.

People Love Working with Jena
It is hard to put into words the impact Jena has had on my life and my understanding of myself. The work we did together allowed me to uncover longstanding trauma held in my body, bringing me a sense of autonomy, protection, and acceptance. Not only does she offer a plethora of valuable tools and techniques for grounding, but she does so in a way that is deeply honest and compassionate. My life is forever enriched by my time spent with Jena and I could not recommend working with her enough. - JB
