Neck stiffness
Neck movement lets you track the ball across a field, court or rink. When it is limited, we examine the neck before choosing drills, part of our care for neck stiffness that limits head turns.
Sports Performance Enhancement in Rancho Santa Fe, CA
Strength and conditioning build the engine. We train the brain side of your game: how fast you read the play, keep your balance and react under pressure.

Overview
You put in the lifting, the conditioning and the film work. Still, a defender reads the play first, or your timing slips late in a match.
Peak performance also depends on how fast your brain takes in what you see and turns it into movement. That is the part we train, as part of our performance care for serious athletes, alongside the work you do with your coaches.
What it is
What is DynaVision D2?
Sports performance enhancement at True Performance is neurological training for athletes. After a baseline exam, we use tools such as DynaVision, GyroStim and neurofeedback to train reaction time, visual awareness, balance, coordination and focus. It complements strength and conditioning rather than replacing it.
- DynaVision D2
- GyroStim
How it works
A baseline exam measures your vision, balance, reaction and movement.
Training blocks target the skills your sport and position demand.
Re-tests show what changed and set the next block.
What it helps with
- Student athletes who want sharper reads and reactions
- Pro and semi-pro competitors chasing an edge
- Precision sports such as golf, tennis and equestrian
- Athletes returning to full training after an injury
When it is not the right tool
- A suspected concussion that no physician has checked
- An acute injury that needs rehab first
- Anyone looking for a strength or conditioning gym
The re-check
We re-test the same measures at the end of each block. If a skill is not moving, we change the training or tell you where your time is better spent.
Which tools do we use?
DynaVision is a light board that trains reaction time, peripheral awareness and decision speed. GyroStim is a computer-guided chair that challenges balance and spatial orientation. Neurofeedback trains focus and self-regulation, and chiropractic, laser and near-infrared care support recovery.
Conditions
Goals DynaVision D2 can support
Pain or stiffness can hold back performance work. We check these first and decide whether rehab should come before or alongside training.
Explore Neck Pain Relief
Back pain and stability
Back pain can limit rotation, lifting and running. We look at back pain that affects rotation and lifting before loading it.
Muscle soreness and strain
Sessions are adapted around muscle tightness that slows recovery.
Joint discomfort
We check stiff or sore joints under training load first.

Is this the same as strength and conditioning?
No. Strength and conditioning build strength, speed, power and endurance. We train the visual, cognitive and balance skills behind execution, and it fits alongside your coach's program.
Who is this for?
Student athletes, recreational competitors and professionals who want to work on reaction time, balance, visual processing or decisions. Plans are set to your sport, position and level.
Can I train if I am coming back from an injury?
It depends on the injury and your symptoms. We assess you first and decide whether rehab should come before performance work.
Does insurance cover sports performance enhancement?
We explain cost and payment options on your intro call, before you book an exam. The total depends on the length of your training block.
What happens at the first visit?
About 90 minutes of testing, plus data and history gathering, covering vision, balance, reaction and movement. We then explain which skills to train first and which tools we will use.
