Fantastic experience: I have been having neck and arm pain for a couple months. I had tried other therapy, but Dr. Jon spent the time to find the root cause of my issues and within 2 sessions with him, I have noticed great improvements in my pain levels and mobility. He has been able to target the root cause of the issue and spent time teaching me what is causing my symptoms. I would highly recommend going to see Dr. Jon!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Maggie! Glad to hear the neck and arm pain is feeling better. Always here if you need anything in the future. Thanks again Maggie!

Fantastic experience: I’m a welder who’s on her feet all day who also maintains an active lifestyle outside of work. Back pain has caused issues in both of those aspects of my life for quite a while. I was referred to Dr. Jon and since working with him I have noticed a difference in my back pain at work. I have also gained confidence in my abilities to workout. Highly recommend Pro+Kinetix to anyone seeking quality and specialized physical therapy.

Fantastic experience: I attended a workshop hosted by Dr. Jon and was also able to work with him 1:1. He talked through some of the issues I have been dealing with, and how these are related to the lifts I am performing. I was able to learn about not only the why behind what was going on, but also what to do to correct those issues. I would highly recommend everyone visit Dr. Jon if you are having any pain or issues training!

Mike Ridder 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend the services and physical therapy options provided by Ben Bagge and his staff at Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance. Ben is very knowledgeable and friendly with helping you find the exercises and stretching workouts you need to get you over any type of pain your experiencing. I’ve had 3 MRI’s done this year because I was experiencing extreme nerve pain along with tightening muscles in my lower back and Neck. The pain I was having had caused me to not be able to sleep at night and was keeping me from enjoying my hobbies and spending time with my family. Getting to work with Ben to have a Physical Therapy exercise routine has helped me get my pain under control and I’ve been able to get back to enjoying a busy life style again with my family and kids!!! If you need any Physical Therapy reach out and contact Ben and his staff they are awesome people to work with and they will go above and beyond to help you get back to feeling healthy again!!! Sincerely, Mike Ridder

Paige Schmidt 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am a former athlete with a history of knee pain and have seen many different physical therapists over the years. Dr. Jon spent much more time with me than other therapists had. The sessions were geared for my goals of training hard in the gym, which I also enjoyed as I did not have to take time off from being in the gym. I would highly recommend Pro+Kinetix to anyone in the Des Moines area.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Paige! That's one of the main things we pride ourselves on is finding modifications to allow our patients to continue to go to the gym and workout while they go through the rehab process. Keeping people in the gym actually speeds up the rehab process when done correctly! Thanks again Paige!

Calvin Ridlen 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love the one on one approach over your typical clinical approach any day... can really tell Dr. Jon has a passion for helping people!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Calvin! That's one thing that we pride ourselves on is the 1-on-1 attention you get the entire hour from a Doctor of Physical Therapy. Patients are never treated by aids or assistants and this makes a huge difference in patients' outcomes and them getting them back to the activities they love whether it's running, weightlifting, ect... Thanks again Calvin!

Matt 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great place. I met with Dr. Jon about some hip issues I was having and he was really helpful with his assessment and treatment plan. First and foremost he spent and entire hour with me, as a client it was great not to feel rushed or pushed aside to an assistant. Also as someone with a background in kinesiology and manual therapy my knowledge is not lacking in various treatment options for my own issues, but Jon was able to expand on them showing me more progressive strengthing exercises than I was currently doing that could be seemlessly inserted into my current workout routine. It was great working with Dr. Jon if any other issues arrise I will be back.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Matt! That's one thing we can always guarantee - 1 on 1 for an hour with a Doctor of Physical Therapy every time. No aids and no assistants! If you ever need anything in the future we're just a call or text away Matt!

Gabrielle Groves 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m a personal trainer, and have struggled with hip impingement for years. Jon gave me some new ways to improve my mobility, so that I can keep moving in the gym! He was very passionate and enthusiastic throughout our meeting, which made it fun! I highly recommend Pro+Kinetix & Jon if you are an athlete of any kind that wants to improve your movement patterns!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Gabrielle! Glad you had a great experience and that Dr. Jon was able to give you tips and tricks to continue to stay moving in the gym. One thing we pride ourselves on is finding ways to allow people to do the activities that they love while going through the rehab process. Rarely is rest ever the answer. Thanks again Gabrielle!

Nick Baltazar 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My experience with ProKinetix was wonderful. Dr. Dayna was amazing. I have an Achilles issue I’m dealing with and she was able to connect it to my glute medius weakness/trendelenburg gait, she’s very perceptive and explained everything so that it made sense to me. She gave me things to work on, practice, and to pay attention to as I keep exercising. She also addressed the emotional facet of being injured and the whole experience was very connecting. Thank you, this was a lovely experience.

Chris Dunne 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m very happy with the treatment I received from Dr. Bagge and wouldn’t want to go anywhere else! Professionalism and attention to detail while listening to your concerns are priority #1. The crew takes time to develop a personalized approach for your specific needs. Worth the drive!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Chris - It's been a pleasure working with you!

S. Rose 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Pro Kinetix is unmatched in its quality of care and individuated attention to patients. I have been working with Dr. Jon in recovering from a torn meniscus. Initially I came in with so much pain that I was having difficulty completing range of motion in my movements and in doing day-to-day activities ( especially with working out). Following the program that he gave to me, I have not only been able to recover, but I've also been able to thrive in my day-to-day activities and in my workouts. I have gone to many different PTs and I've never experienced anything like the level of care that I receive at Pro Kinetix. The providers here are excellent at what they do. On top of that, the front-desk staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful, always ready to answer any questions that I have. I am grateful for Pro Kinetix and the life-changing quality of care that all of the providers and staff offer!

Gabe Kennicker 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Let me start by stating that I’ve dealt with back pain for over a decade and seen countless other physical therapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, ect… and none have helped me at a fraction of what Pro+Kinetix has. I had been told by essentially every other practitioner to give up on my ambition to be as active as I wanted to be (lifting weights, running, ect…). Pro+Kinetix was not only the only practice that told me I could actually do so, but they actually got me back to doing those things that I love. I went from having difficulty sleeping and pain with even walking back to running and lifting weights again. I attribute most of my success to just how differently they approach things. With most clinics, the physical therapist was seeing multiple patients at the same time of me and most of the time I was just reviewing and doing exercises I did previously with one of their assistants. It always felt very cookie cutter. MY experience with Pro+Kinetix was completely different. I was always with the same physical therapist, 1 on 1 for an hour which made all the difference. Each time I came in we were doing something different and leveling things up. Long story short - I can’t explain how much they have changed my life by getting me out of that rut and giving me a new outlook and optimism on being able to be my active self as I continue to get older. My only regret is not finding these guys earlier as I wasted a lot of time, energy, and resources over the last decade. If you’re dealing with an injury and discouraged that you might not ever get back to doing the activities that you love give these guys a shot and I promise you you won’t regret it!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Gabe! It's been so rewarding for all of us seeing you get back to weight lifting and running again. Only the beginning and we know you're only going to continue to get even stronger and faster!

Morgan Casey 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a runner for nearly my entire life, but I've spent the past decade battling injuries. I've been through physical therapy programs for rehab before, but I've never had a program set me up to build strength and prevent injuries quite like Pro+Kinetix. Each week I feel noticeable improvement in my strength and balance and I'm looking forward to months and years of pain free running ahead. If you're an athlete looking to build the strength and prevent injury I definitely recommend giving PT a shot!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Morgan for the kind words! One common aspect that tends to get overlooked with training when it comes to running is the strength training component and it is why so many runners sustain injuries. Glad to hear you're on the right track now and getting back to your active self. Keep up the awesome work Morgan!

Corey Skadburg 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been working with John for the past 6 months on my form (squats, deadlift, etc.) to address my low back pain and am showing great progress and adding weight each week! Last week I tweaked my neck and saw John for some physical therapy. He used needles and scrapers to dig out my knots and feel great now! Go see John!

Clare Nordyke 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: When you need outside of the box physical therapy, these guys are exactly who you need. Its not the cookie cutter physical therapy, giving the exact same exercises, even when those exercises arent helping type place. Looking for root causes of all the dysfunction and willing to treat the entire body to make life better and help you with any physical issues you are suffering with. I went in looking for help with my running form, and not only did he find an issue that no one else had, he was able to help with other issues I've been struggling with, like back muscle engagement. They've been amazing all around!

John B 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was treated for a shoulder injury that had bothered me for the past year which was preventing me from not only exercising but also being able to sleep throughout the night which was also impacting my work days significantly. I tried 2 other physical therapy clinics where I was put through the same exercises I was doing at home by an assistant and not even the actual physical therapist. This was completely different with Pro+Kinetix as I received 1-on-1 attention for an entire hour and was with the same physical therapist each time. When I started my therapy with Pro+Kinetix I felt an improvement from the first day, and after 9 sessions, I reached the point of being able to workout and lift pain free again. Best physical therapy in Des Moines hands down! 100% recomend!

Spencer Jones 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Jon actually coached at a gym I go to for a while, and his timing was perfect. I'd been away from the gym for some time and managed to overdo it in the first few weeks, leading to an adductor strain that caused me some grief. Jon helped modify the programming (and kept me honest about weight and range of motion) and gave me some exercises to get things back in order. His expertise was incredibly welcome, and I wouldn't hesitate going out to see him at Pro-Kinetix if (when?) I need some PT in the future.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Spencer and so glad Dr. Jon was able to help! Always just a text or call away if you ever need anything Spencer. Thanks again!

Chasten Rogge 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Can’t thank Dr. Ben Bagge enough for helping me regain my health! I have been dealing with chronic right knee pain for over 2 years limiting my ability to run, jump, and squat. He has helped me progress my pain-free running from 2 miles to 8+ without difficulties and my deep squat has never looked/felt better! He actually spends the time to address the whole picture and tweak the little things that other therapists have missed. If you’re in the Des Moines area Pro+Kinetix is the only choice!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Chasten for the kind words and also for all of your hard work. It's been great seeing it pay off with you getting back to running and strength training again pain free. Keep up the awesome work!

George Josten 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Jon at Pro+Kinetix was exactly what I had been looking for when it came to fixing my knee pain that I was having with climbing as my job is very physical and just every day walking and work. Dr. Jon was able to pinpoint the problem and from there, created a customized program to strengthen my quads, hamstrings, and IT band ultimately helping me reach my work and other fitness goals. What really set Dr. Jon apart from the rest of the physical therapists I've seen is the level of education and knowledge that he provides. This is something I get to take with me for the rest of my life that I can apply which, in turn, ultimately allows me to have the confidence that this injury isn't going to return. Not only that but if it does flare up, I know I have the knowledge and tools to fix it. Thanks so much Dr. Jon!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much, George! Dr. Jon has enjoyed getting to know you and has appreciated your willingness to learn and your genuine interest. Like you mentioned, soaking up that information is the key to independence and having the power to prevent having to deal with future injuries and it's what we strive to do for each and every one of our patients. Thanks again George for the kind words!

Travis Djuren 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've had recurring pain and weakness in my shoulder since partially tearing my rotator cuff. I haven't had surgery due to the nature of the tear. I began working with Dr. Jon to help me return to normal activities, and he has helped break down my exact limitations and give me ways to directly strengthen my shoulder. This has allowed me to continue my workouts and improve my overall strength.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Travis! Glad to hear that you've been able to keep up with your workouts while going through the rehab process. Keep up the great work. Thanks again Travis!

Aleksandr Larionov 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I visited an online workshop and I was really impressed with the approach. The team shared not only the exercise but also educate us on root causes, how to prevent them, and in general, about our anatomy, it was super interesting. Highly recommend

Tyler Phelps 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Huge credit to Dr Jon, Dr Ben, and Pro+Kinetix! I’ve had steady back pain for a handful of years, and have seen several practitioners with no long-term success. It was great to find a PT who identified what was CAUSING my pain and not simply addressing the pain itself. PRs are back because of it. Highly recommend.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Tyler! Our primary focus is to always get to the root issue, which in turn, produces long term results without reliance on us, chiropractic care, massage ect...Keep up the awesome work Tyler!

Julie Allen 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I visited Dr Jon for an assessment on some low back and hip pain. He was very interested in my fitness goals and needs, and really worked to get to root of the problem. Even in that first visit I saw some improvement in the pain, and it was good to get feedback on whether or not it was still safe for me to keep working out. The depth of knowledge and the extent of concern for the patient one on one was very clear and appreciated.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Julie! That's one of the most important things to us not only our patients see relief in that very first session, but find ways to allow them to continue to workout and do the activities they love while going through the rehab process. By doing so, it actually helps make the rehab process more quick and efficient rather than 100% resting! Thanks again for taking the time to share your story Julie!

Anjeza Erickson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am new to trail running and was experiencing some knee pain. I went to see Dr. Jon Albright to make sure my running form was ok and identify any areas I needed to work on to strengthen my knees, hips and ankles to prevent injury. Dr. Albright was very professional and spent a full hour showing me several stretches , exercises and how to do them with proper form in order to get the best results.I would definitely recommend this for anyone whether you are active or looking to start a program to become more active.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Anjeza! Keep up the great work and we're always just a phone call or text away if you need anything in the future!

Alexander Pfeifer 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Dr Jon for about 3 months now trying to rehab an old shoulder injury. He has given me some good exercises to strengthen specific areas in my back which is helping to get my shoulders back in the correct position and allowing me better range of motion when working out. Dry needling and scraping have also been very beneficial breaking up knots and scar tissue around my shoulder injury. Dr Jon is very personable and I always enjoy our conversations during during therapy

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Alexander! Dr. Jon has enjoyed working with you and always appreciates your hard work. Thanks again!

Alex Thomas 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I came to Jon for my second attempt at running the Boston Marathon. My first try ended 8 weeks short with a knee injury. This year, I decided to seek out a PT to help get me to the starting line. After my first conversation with Jon, I knew he was the kind of doctor/coach I needed. He listened to and considered my performance history, current condition, and future goals. Jon knew my training was on a knife's edge, but he walked me through an individualized plan and offered suggestions that have kept me healthy through this training cycle. Now I'm ready to rock at Boston in three weeks, and I know Jon's preventative and fostering care was a huge part of that. I'm grateful for his knowledge and professionalism!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Alex and congratulations! Dr. Jon really enjoys working with patients like yourself who are always willing to put the hard work in. Thanks again Alex!

Josh Kimm 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My experience working with Dr. Jon has been fantastic! I had injured my chest last year while lifting and was hoping to get back to lifting how I used to. Dr. Jon was very knowledgable about not only the anatomy and physiology of my injury, but also the strength training principles that may have contributed to my injury. He asked questions to ensure that he was helping me reach my specific goals, and explained what he was doing before he did anything. He was great to work with and overall I had a fantastic experience. I just wish I had started working with him sooner!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thank you Josh! So glad you had a great experience. Keep up the great work!

SHANNON PEREZ 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of receiving fantastic PT from Dr. Jon for my hip, knee and toe pain. I had asked for help at the small gym I went to, with just oh I'll send you an email of some stretches to do, which I never received and was never asked how I was doing. So, I sucked it up and called upon Pro+Kinetix and was paired with Jon. Which was a perfect fit, he listened, did a physical evaluation and made sure I understood why this domino effect was happening. He did great at demonstrating the stretches and workouts he wanted me to do. I worked out almost daily along with running. I had a mileage goal set in place for the year and with his help I was able to finish PAST my goal pain free. Key is to keep up with the program he gives you, even if you have graduated out, so you don't go back to square one. Thank you, Jon and the staff, at the location I went, for always being friendly and welcoming.

Glad you were able to attend Aleksandr and that you found it helpful! The better someone is able to understand why they're injury occurred, what's going on anatomically, and how the exercises are helping the better they are going to treat it and also prevent it from reoccurring! Thanks again Aleksandr and hope to see you at the next workshop!

Wyatt Gatrost 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: On less than one day’s notice Jon found time on a Saturday to fit me in the day before a marathon. He was very helpful in preparing my legs for this endeavor and he was receptive to working alongside me to get me the care that I needed. He worked on my hamstrings and hips with enough strength to get them loose, but enough gentleness that they wouldn’t be sore for my run. I’m just a 45 minute session he gave me so much more range of motion in my hamstrings and it resulted in a nice pr for me on race day. Would recommend to anyone who needs a good pt.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

This just made our day hearing that you PRd in your marathon! Thanks for sharing your story Wyatt and also trusting us before your marathon. Always a call away if you need anything in the future. Now onto the next PR!

Michael Alzheimer 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: As a physical therapist and an owner of a physical therapy practice I know and have seen the vast differences in the quality of care given by physical therapists. In my opinion, Pro+Kinetix provides the highest quality of care a patient can receive and are the ones I turn to for care for myself, my loved ones, and patients of mine that travel to the Des Moines area. Dr. Ben isn’t just a doctor of physical therapy. He’s also a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialists. Less than 5% of physical therapists have this certification. What does that mean for you? He has the tools and the knowledge to help bridge the gap between rehab and performance and know the demands required of your sport or activity that other PTs don't. On top of that, while most PTs only spend 10-15 minutes with a patient before handing you off to an assistant (to do exercises you could be completing at home) they spend the entire visit 1-on-1 with you. This means that instead of having to waste time driving to and from a typical PT practice 3x/week you come in just once a week with Pro+Kinetix. Another aspect that I like about Pro+Kinetix and what separates them from any other practice in the area is that they don't want you reliant on them, a chiropractor, massage therapist, physician, etc... They educate you and give you all the necessary tools to be independent and take ownership of your own individual health. On top of that, while most physical therapy practices just focus on the injured body part, Pro+Kinetix takes a full body approach which is imperative as the human body is highly complex and entirely interconnected. Lastly, what else separates Pro+Kinetix from other providers is that they take it one step further. What I mean by that is most practices focus solely on getting you out of pain. That's great and all but that's only scratching the surface. Because of Dr. Ben’s background as a strength coach, he can also provide patients with a strength program that is tailored for injury prevention and make sure that not only does the current injury not come back, but helps ensure that no other injuries will pop up in the future. Long story short: If you are an athlete, weekend warrior, desk jockey, or simply enjoy being active and are being restricted from doing these activities because of pain Pro+Kinetix is your best shot of getting back to doing those activities. I have seen him help countless patients avoid surgery, injections, and pain medications all the while getting them back to squatting, deadlifting, running, biking, and working out pain free again. There's very few practices in the United States, let alone the Des Moines area, that have the 1-on-1 attention, the sports background knowledge, and the track record that Pro+Kinetix has of getting active individuals back to the activities they love pain free. Life is too short to avoid the activities you love because of pain. Give these guys a shot and I promise you won't regret it. When I say it will be life changing I'm not being dramatic. These guys are the real deal!

JODI MARTI 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have a labral tear and severe arthritis in my right hip. It has gotten progressively worse over the last 3 years, to the point it’s difficult to put my sock and shoe on my right foot. I’ve been to orthopedic surgeons and they have basically told me I’m too young for hip replacement and to take over the counter pain meds and I have been prescribed Celebrex (neither of which seem to work great). I have gone to physical therapists before but, I didn’t feel they were really invested in my improvement. It seemed to be rushed and they would just show me the exercises and give me a paper packet explaining what I was supposed to do. I felt like contacting them wouldn’t be easy because there were several therapists in the office and they traveled from clinic to clinic. I met Dr. Bagge through a mutual friend whom I know as someone who is committed to a healthy lifestyle and he wouldn’t work with someone that was not trustworthy. As I started talking with Dr. Bagge I realized my session time was going to be for me only, my program would change every session (building on the previous sessions), I would get my sessions digitally so I will always be able to reference them and I could reach out at any time between sessions if I had a question. And one of the most important things for me is that Dr. Bagge explains why a certain stretch or exercise is important from a physiological perspective (why we are doing it and how it will help). Dr. Bagge also asked me what I wanted to accomplish with physical therapy. He wanted to know what my goals were even if it was something as simple as putting my sock and shoe on more efficiently. Since working with Dr. Bagge, my mobility and flexibility have improved drastically. I’ve learned easy to perform stretches that help ease the discomfort in not only my hip but, have made me feel better overall. If you have reservations about going to physical therapy for the first time OR you doubt it will help because you’ve done it before without much success, give Dr. Bagge a chance. His education and certifications make him a subject matter expert but, his desire to help people is what makes him better than the rest. He listens, his exercises are simple but effective, and his focus is a better quality of life for his clients.

Fantastic experience: I went to Pro+Kinetix with shoulder pain that I've had for years. They were able to pinpoint my issue and after a few sessions was already feeling better than I have in a long time. Would highly recommend scheduling an appointment to anyone in need of pain relief.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Nick! Glad that you were able to get the results you had been looking for and get that pain under control. Just a phone call away if you have questions or need anything in the future!

Kara Sammet 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: As I approached turning 50, I came to Dr. Ben with rotator cuff tears/degeneration and various foot/ankle injuries. Both of these had caused pain for years and kept me from participating in activities I really enjoyed, especially running and yoga. After about six months of PT with Ben, I regained the ability to do so many activities that I loved when I was younger, including running, yoga, walking, swimming - and even sleeping - with zero pain. As part of my process of working with Dr. Ben and regaining my mobility, I lost over 40 pounds. I went from being a completely sedentary, overwhelmed mom to easily sneaking in 5 mile runs while the kids are on playdates. I also recently completed my longest run in 20 years! I am SO thrilled! There are several things that set Ben's approach at Pro+Kinetix apart. I have worked with many PTs who give me exercises, but Ben also works on mindset. Ben took the time to help me figure out what would get me motivated to do my PT exercises, helped me set ambitious but realistic goals and, probably most importantly, he provided empathetic accountability to help me reach my goals. The other really useful part of Dr. Ben's system included coordinating with my strength trainer when I was easing my way back into exercise. This helped make sure that my regular workouts were fully aligned and consistently updated with my PT accomplishments and goals. Dr. Ben is an exceptional PT. Without a doubt, Ben and his team are the most effective that I've experienced in over 20 years of on/off PT.

Fantastic experience: I had multiple injuries, which required some TLC that I was not getting at a major local hospital. I was referred to Ben and ever since I've been living pain free. Ben has helped me fix an inflamed wrist which could not even handle 5 lbs of pressure on it, tennis elbow, and also now helping me rehabilitate a snapped Achilles tendon which was not treated properly. To attest to the improvements I've seen, I was squatting 330lbs max and having issues, but after Ben's eval and treatments I have been able to access the right muscles and just broke my own personal record after a week of treatment. Ben really takes the time to make sure you understand his treatment method and he makes himself available if you need further help. It also helps that Ben is willing to listen and not dismiss any issues you bring up. Simply put, Ben is AWESOME! FYI: Ben also helps women with Post Partum PT to get them back to their former athletic prowess.

Fantastic experience: During the pandemic I decided to start focusing on my health and exercise a bit so I started to exercise every morning with my roommate. Unfortunately, I started to feel a lot of tightness and clicking in my right hip. I kept trying to power through it, but after some time I was having difficulty completing my morning exercises. I really wanted to keep working out but was having such a hard time doing any ab exercises or even squats so I decided to give it a couple weeks of rest. Unfortunately, it ended up coming back once I tried getting back to it. I decided that it was probably time to have this professionally looked at. I had considered going through my primary physician but my friend suggested to give PT a try. I searched for “best physical therapy near me” and came across Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy. After talking to Dr. Ben on the phone about my injury I realized that this clinic was exactly what I was looking for. I scheduled my evaluation and at the end of my evaluation my physical therapist helped modify the activities I was doing to allow me to complete 95% of my normal workout pain free. This was huge for me as I exercise for my mental health and couldn’t fathom taking weeks off from working out again. 6 weeks later and I’m back to working out 100% pain free and I feel so much stronger! However, what’s most important to me is that I am better educated about my body and my previous injury so I’m confident that I wouldn’t be needing therapy in the near future!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ben was a great help in identifying my problem areas, and providing a clear plan to follow to get me back on track. Very knowledgeable, very personable, highly recommend booking an appointment with him if you’re looking to get back to pain free training/living.

Fantastic experience: I have had a great experience working with Dr. Ben. I had been working with another physical therapist on my back pain for about a year with little progress. I finally came to see Dr. Ben and I couldn't be more thankful that I did. Within a couple weeks my back pain is 99% gone and I am now able to get back to all the active things I want to do with no restrictions (Weightlifting, crossfit, gymnastics, trail running, yoga). Highly recommend Dr. Ben and Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance!

Fantastic experience: I recently had chronic knee pain from my daily construction job. I went to see Dr. Ben and explained my current situation. He was very understanding and listened to me explaining what pain I was feeling. He was able to offer helpful next step options to calm down the pain. Within a few weeks of going to see him routinely and doing the in home work outs, I was able to feel better at work and have a more enjoyable day at work. I would highly recommend using Pro+Kinetix for any pain that you are currently dealing with.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been having a lot of pain recently during my morning workouts where I love to run or go on a hike. I waited a while to see a physical therapist, mostly I’d been really concerned about cost and time. I’m on my parent’s insurance plan, and each PT visit through my network was still an out of pocket cost, and unfortunately our deductible is ridiculously high. Ultimately, I actually decided to go to an initial evaluation through another physical therapy clinic… After a 30 minute virtual visit where I spent half the time trying to figure out where to place my phone so she could even see all of my movement, I decided that was a waste of time. I followed the prescribed exercise plan idea for a few weeks with essentially no improvements. After talking to Ben, it only made sense to try out their program. I chose Pro+Kinetix mostly because of Ben, his explanation of the services really enlightened me on the clear, comprehensive care that I would be receiving. And let me just say that he did NOT exaggerate. I was having a lot of hip impingement with exercises and what felt like nerve pain down my right leg. As a young adult, it didn’t make sense that I was having pain with or after exercise that was lingering in a way that wasn’t muscle soreness. As an active person who has actually worked at an outpatient PT clinic, I thought I knew exactly what exercises and stretches would help me. I did a lot of strength training and nightly stretches for about 2 months before deciding it was time to try something new and actually see a PT. Coming away from my first session with Dr. Ben, I was really impressed with the clear knowledge that he had of all the muscles in the body, where they all connected to and how they affect the different feelings or pain sensations that I was having. During the first 30 minutes, Dr. Ben did a full examination where he not only educated me about my condition, but also showed me images of why I might be feeling certain pain points. After this, we went downstairs and worked on some new strength training exercises I hadn’t tried before. He was really receptive to all of my feedback on the exercises and modified everything to make sure that none of my pain points flared up. I’m excited to continue with the Pro+Kinetix program so I can get back to my morning runs and hiking. I’m so confident that Pro+Kinetix can help me get stronger and reduce my pain!

Fantastic experience: I've had really great results working with Dr. Ben in resolving pain in my knee. I twisted my knee several months ago and had minor pain but not enough to feel like I needed medical treatment. I thought over time my knee would heal, and the pain would go away on its own. Unfortunately, that was not the case and the pain progressed to the point of significantly hindering my work outs and daily life. I found the Pro+Kinetix team through my CrossFit gym and began seeing Dr. Ben once a week. I found the sessions really helpful. About half of the session was spent using massage and the hyper-volt to loosen up a lot of muscle tightness and the rest of the session was spent on stretching and exercises to help build strength and mobility. I would also get access to exercises and stretches to do at home to continue making progress. Dr. Ben was really good at explaining all of the movements and answering questions. As we made progress on addressing my original knee pain, we were also able to work on movements I do in my CrossFit work outs including deadlifts, squats, and upper body work. Overall my experience with Dr. Ben has been very positive and I feel like the Pro+Kinetix team was truly invested in my progress and journey to get better! 100% recommend!

Fantastic experience: Ben is a great communicator and is passionate about educating clients on the "why" behind what he is doing. I appreciated that he gave me specific exercises to work on, prescribed with recommended frequency and exact sets/reps and video demonstrations. Additionally, his experience in strength and conditioning adds a layer of understanding in terms of the demands on the body and how to use PT in order to return to/continue that activity safely. As a fitness coach myself, I would be confident sending my athletes to Ben!

Fantastic experience: I consulted Dr. Ben after experiencing wrist pain that was persistent regardless of rest or anything I tried on my own. Common movements while exercising such as push ups or bench press caused issues. He was able to diagnose a reason for the pain quickly, and provided me with movements that should alleviate the pain. After the first few weeks the pain went away and I was able to return to normal workouts with minimal to no pain. I highly recommend Dr. Ben to anyone who asked, he's very professional and dedicated to helping you return to pain free activity.

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks Andrew! It's been great seeing all your hard work pay off and rewarding seeing you get back to doing push ups and bench press again. Always a phone call or text away if you were need anything in the future!

Austin Pink 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ben is the best physical therapist in the area. He gets to know his patients on a personal level and cares about them and their well being. I am an avid weight lifter and I had nagging shoulder pain and it was just not getting better. After a couple meetings with Ben he was able to pin point exactly where the injury was and where the pain was coming from. He gave me simple but very effective exercises to do and before I know it I was back at it again. I would highly suggest Dr. Ben with any injury you may have, you won’t be sorry!! Keep up the good work!

Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy & Performance - Des Moines

Thanks so much Austin! It's been rewarding seeing you overcome that shoulder injury and get back to strength training again. Onwards and upwards!
