Sports Physical Therapy in Waukee, IA

"Jake is legit. I have seen him a number of times for various tweaks and minor injuries and always come out with more knowledge and relief. His approach offers an educational element so you can help yourself after PT is over. As a fitness professional, I find this crucial for sustained success in performance and just simply feeling your best. His knowledge of the body and how it works is unmatched."

"I have had the privilege of working with Jake for the past two months, and I can confidently say that the impact on my well-being has been profound. Jake has not only helped me find relief from pain but has also played a pivotal role in understanding the root causes of my issues. One of Jake standout qualities is his ability to foster awareness. He has equipped me with the skills to recognize when a corrective movement is needed, empowering me to take charge of my own progress."

"Every person deserves the best medical care possible and I was so fortunate to have been recommended to Jake. As a physical therapist, Jake not only guided me through my knee recovery but educated me on the specifics of my body and how I could use it to the fullest potential. Jake has an incredible knowledge of anatomy and how to properly use the body which then allowed me to make great leaps forward with improved performance in the gym."

"Jake was excellent to work with and I would recommend him to anyone looking to address an existing issue or improve performance. I started working with Jake when I was experiencing shoulder and bicep pain so bad I could hardly carry my kids anymore. Jake created a treatment plan that helped alleviate the pain and provided helpful tips so that I was able to keep my regular gym routine through it all."

"Jake is the real deal! Healed after months of limitation. I had been fighting tendon pain for nearly a year and was limited in movement, capacity and ability in several lifts. What I thought was a shoulder injury actually turned out to be a bicep tendon. Jake found the culprit immediately through diagnosis and assessment. He showed me a variety of exercises to strengthen the area and I was back to full capacity."

"I started seeing Jake after years of neck and back pain. Some days I could barely move my head and it would cause me to miss out on a lot of fun activities. I went to Jake hoping I would find out why I was in so much pain and more importantly hoping he could show me how to fix it. He did just exactly that, he is very knowledgeable in targeting where the pain is coming from and why."

"Been struggling with back injuries off and on for the past 2 years. A few months ago I decided to finally see someone about it. During my treatment I had a freak incident where I threw out my back bending over to get my dogs food bowl. Could hardly walk. He got me in later that same day and put me through the wringer but one week later and I was back at it."

"Life Changing. I had resigned myself to suffering through debilitating episodes of lower back pain. I would occasionally throw my back out moving furniture or something heavy. Jake taught me how to work on muscle groups that make me feel stronger and have relieved my pain. I was amazed to be lifting and moving weight that I have spent most of my life avoiding, and I feel great!"

"I took a chance on Jake to help with nagging low back pain and a tendon injury in my ankle that seemed to never go away, despite resting it for months like the doctor said. 6 appointments in, the ankle pain is greatly reduced and the back pain is more easily handled. I can deadlift again and be on my feet all day without much pain."

"Jake truly delivers on the statement: Put pain and injuries behind you! I came in with tennis elbow only to learn that I needed to address more than just the tiny pain spot in my elbow. After several weeks of dry needling, stretching, pain management, building in workouts and ongoing at-home exercises, I can say that I am indeed ready for bow season more than any year prior."

"I have been working with Jake for several months now. As a physical therapist he is very knowledgeable and patient. He takes the time to discuss every single detail that may be affecting you, but in a way that helps you understand the process required as a whole. He is not your cookie cutter therapist."

"I started working with Jake in February 2023. Jake and Lauren have put so much love, dedication and discipline to their business and it shows in each visit. I was a dancer when I was younger and lost all confidence with previous injuries and he has helped build me up. I became a client before they were able to accept my insurance and I would confidently do it again."
