Delana Henderson, MS, ATC

Delana Henderson eagerly joined the Avid Sports Medicine team as a Certified Athletic Trainer. She brings nearly a decade of experience from high schools, hospitals, clinics, and collegiate athletics.

Born and raised in San Francisco, CA, Delana decided to take a break from the city life after high school and head to Greensboro, N.C., where she earned her B.S. in Sports Science and Fitness Management from North Carolina A&T State University in 2008. In 2012, she earned a Masters Degree in Athletic Training from California Baptist University in Riverside, California.

Currently, Delana is enjoying working with an array of fitness enthusiasts at Avid who need assistance along their fitness journey or just with everyday life. Delana collaborates with Dr. Jow to offer manual therapies, assess movement dysfunctions, and recommend corrective rehabilitation exercises to patients suffering from musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. She also works in the collegiate setting with Men’s Soccer, Baseball, Basketball, and covering a variety of events and tournaments around the Bay Area.

When not in the clinic or the athletic training room, Delana enjoys yoga, strength training, sunny weather, and good food.

 

Dr. Jow and Delana are extremely thorough and conscientious. They help me set reasonable goals to rehab my shoulder, and they made the process warm and inviting. I cannot wait to go back, and I feel excited to heal thanks to them!
