Integrated Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine

Experiencia fantástica: I was not looking forward to physical therapy after my back surgery. However, it has been a very positive experience. Ned takes the time to listen to how my back is and tailors the workout accordingly. I can also say that he has pushed me just enough to advance my rehab without pushing too much and causing a setback.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Best in town!!

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is knowledgeable and cares about my physical issues. They developed a plan to help me alleviate my pain and I can feel the progress. Would definitely recommend to anyone suffering from chronic pain!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been to 4 physical therapist's in 10 years that seemed to bandaid my back pain over the years. At age 47 I finally found a doctor who reads deep into my pain, my specific issues and my goals. Best PT in DSM.

Experiencia fantástica: They are so nice ! They care about what is the best for you. I had a shoulder replacement and didn’t know what to expect and Kris has been absolutely wonderful. I actually love going to physical therapy. I feel so much better after a session and you feel like you have accomplished something. They encourage you and do what is best for you.

Experiencia fantástica: I really enjoyed getting help from Noah he is Amazing and very helpful and knowledgeable, I will be going to Noah for as long as he's here!

Experiencia fantástica: Kris is great physical therapist. Helped me several times with my knee and shoulder issues!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working with Drew Gibson and the Integrated Physical Therapy team for several months! They have helped me rehabilitate from back issues as well as currently helping me rehab from a recent hip replacement! Drew has been excellent to work with! He takes the time to ask me questions in order to really understand where I am on each visit and has offered me great help, guidance and suggestions on the things I need to do in order to get back to a normal healthy life! I really like the office environment, they have all the state of the at equipment to help but its also a comfortable environment! What I mean by that is it is comfortable, not stuffy like a traditional doctor's office or medical facility. It is a place I can go to and feel comfortable in doing my rehab! I have been to other doctors/PT's and their facilities, and since working with Drew and the Integrated Physical Therapy team I will not only only go to them, if anyone asks I only would recommend anyone who asks to go there! Thanks, Rob Edgeton

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Eric has been a life saver for my 13 year old son. He has been struggling with recovery from a concussion for over four months. Since we got him into physical therapy he has done a complete turn around. His daily migraines have tremendously decreased. He is attending school again, and able to participate in his many sports. I am so thankful for Eric, and that we chose the route of Intergrated Therapy. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. Thank you for helping get my guys spark back in life!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been a client of Kris with Intergrated Physical Therapy for more then 4 years now. He is extremely thoroug and he provides me with personalized therapy that always results in a successful treatment. I would and have referred many my family and friends to the clinic in which everyone say is a good experience. I highly recommend Intergrated Physical Therapy for their service and expertise.

Experiencia fantástica: I have used every therapist at the Linden Street location. Sam, Eric, Ty, Noah And Kendra before she left. They are all professional, and very friendly. I would never go anywhere else for physical therapy. If I could, I would give it 10.

Experiencia fantástica: 2/2 on great therapists at this location. Always very knowledgeable and their instruction is always highly perspicuous. This place is small and intimate which is exactly what you want when it comes to fixing your body.

Experiencia fantástica: Sam is amazing and so caring and dedicated in helping his patients improve! Thanks Sam!

Experiencia fantástica: Can't recommend Kris enough. He knows his stuff.

Experiencia fantástica: They always have the most up to date technology and therapy options .

Experiencia fantástica: Have been going here off and on for years. The staff is excellent and very knowledgeable. Are always focused on getting you back to feeling your best. Thank you for all you do!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Sam Curtis did wonders on me! I never felt better. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Experiencia fantástica: A great caring place for PT. Drew has been a big help with my knees and back.

Experiencia fantástica: Tate and team are awesome. Best PT care I’ve ever received.

Experiencia fantástica: Recently diagnosed with lipedema and having no clue what to except with decogestive therapy I went in with an open mind and full of hope. Laurie and the staff are knowledgable, friendly and the therapy is actually working!! Cannot wait for my next session and the kinesiology tape works swimmingly, you wouldn't believe it. I'm getting my compression sleeves soon. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff! Great care! I feel so much better with the support the staff has given me with my muscle and joint pain. 5 stars for sure!

Experiencia fantástica: Great care and enjoyable staff! I feel like the treatments are really well tailored to where I’m at. I love working with Sam but it’s really nice that the whole staff seem to care about all the patients, not just their own, and support each other.

Experiencia fantástica: Came into Integrated with some serious sciatica. Everyday activities were severely uncomfortable. After working with Dr. Sam, I am able to run, lift, and bike daily with no pain. The stretches provided give me relief whenever symptoms flair up, and the initial dry needling and INDIBA machine helped reduce symptoms. I highly recommend working with Dr. Sam!

Experiencia fantástica: My experience with Sam Curtis was stellar. I injured my back while sledding with grandkids at Christmas, and finally in March decided what I was doing to deal with it was not working. I asked my doctor to refer me to Integrated Physical Therapy at the recommendation of a friend, and I could not be more pleased. Sam is amazing, and all the staff are friendly. I saw people receiving treatment for a wide variety of conditions during my time there. Fantastic choice for physical therapy in Des Moines!

Experiencia fantástica: Been nursing a shoulder injury at IPT for a couple months now. It’s gotten a lot better, but it’s still a work in progress and I continue to visit once a week. As I’ve gotten better we’ve adapted my treatment and exercises. Sam is a great guy and knows how to do his job. Good energy here.

Experiencia fantástica: Very sensitive to the quirks of my old body. I feel stronger, more balanced physically, and eager to keep up my exercises at home.

Experiencia fantástica: A good group of people. Really helped me out with real world solutions to manage my pain on the job sight. Would definitely recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Brianna developed a thoughtful and doable program to help me get stronger. I appreciate her expertise and her enthusiasm.

Experiencia fantástica: All staff are professional and knowledgeable. Nice atmosphere.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is the best! I was referred by a coworker when I was having all kinds of issues after a car accident. I worked with Eric over the next few weeks to build back my muscle and strengthen my target areas and it worked so well. Great people and facilities and hospitality! I would recommend to anyone considering.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been to several different physical therapists over the past 8 years for unique injuries. Integrated Physical Therapy has by far been the best for many reasons, but the number one reason is because I feel like they genuinely care about working to not only help me feel better but be better overall so that I can be healthy for my kids and my life.

Experiencia fantástica: I appreciate all the extra attention that Sam gives my injury as well as my Whole Body, making a diagnosis that greatly enhances my Wellbeing and evolves my recovery. He is a great listener!

Experiencia fantástica: I’m LaVerna Hoke and have been doing therapy with Von Glaser for about a year. I came in with lots of pain in my right knee, bone on bone, having lots of pain and taking pain meds. I had injections from Nova Intergrated Health and was having success with that, but my regular doctor suggested therapy and sent me to Von, with the therapy, exercises and Indiba I have improved to the point that I have little pain and have definitely strengthened my knee and legs. I would highly recommend him and the biggest thing you can do which I know is a true testament is to do the exercises they prescribe, make them a habit and you definitely will get better. Thanks so very much Von

Experiencia fantástica: Great service and staff!!

Experiencia fantástica: It was amazing!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place if you're looking for physical therapy!

Experiencia fantástica: Eric and everyone I’ve interacted with has been awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional with a sincere goal of making me better. Patient’s health is number 1.

Experiencia fantástica: Review for Von Glaser I have had multiple sessions with Von and have found him to be an excellent Physical Therapist! He listens to you when you explain your pain. He then provides you with exercises tailored to your needs. When you have questions, he takes time to answer them in a clear and understandable way. My pain has been reduced since I began my sessions with Von. I would highly recommend him!

Experiencia fantástica: I tore my meniscus and hadn’t been able to walk well since May 12. I’m 64 and did not want to rush into surgery. A good friend highly recommended Integrated PT, so I came in and was fortunate to get Sam Curtis. We’ve worked together for about 6 weeks now, and I feel more confident and I am walking with no pain for up to 11 miles at a time. Now I’m heading to France to continue my walk on a beautiful pilgrim’s path from Conques to Moissac (126 miles over 12 days). Sam was knowledgeable, kind, encouraging, and flexible. This was my first experience with PT, and I am very thankful for the help!

Experiencia fantástica: Integrated PT is fantastic... I came in for tennis elbow and lower back issues and Von Glaser quickly and efficiently developed a care plan and within just a few visits I experienced improvement. If I could give Integrated PT & Sports Medicine and its staff (especially Von) more than 5 stars, I would... HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Experiencia fantástica: I suffered an Achilles Tear and I knew this was the place to go for my therapy recovery. They have arguably the best OT's and PTA's around the Des Moines Metro. They have quite a network of specialist knowledge as well to know where to send you in the right direction. I would recommend anyone to this place for surgical PT recovery, Sports related soreness or minor aches and pains. They do such a great job with their clients and that's big reason why they have so many repeat customers and referrals. I'd never go anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: Drew is very helpful on making the sessions a mix of education, strengthen and sometimes comfort if the session has made my pain flair up. He is always on time, which I appreciate, and the staff and facility is very nice.

Experiencia fantástica: I have only had three visits and the results I am experiencing with my shoulder pain is remarkable I have more movement and flexibility and less pain I am totally satisfied

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot speak highly enough of this practice!! The entire team is very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, professional and provide genuine and exceptional care for their patients!! I have incredible results after starting therapy with them!! I give them beyond a 5 star rating!!

Experiencia fantástica: Andrew Gibson has helped me a lot with alleviating the pain in my knees. Very friendly and great at explaining what I need to do and answering questions.

Experiencia fantástica: Integrated PT is truly an integrated experience. All of the therapists strive to know all of the clients, not just their own which makes a very welcoming environment. They are a truly a team, who is ever closest to the phone, answers it and takes the time to walk you through whatever you need. During the actual sessions, they answer your questions very respectfully and take the time you need to move forward. I highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: A HUGE shout out to Tate and Liesyl for fixing my problem that I haven’t been able to walk properly for the last few days. They understood my problem quickly and showed sincere and genuine care. It changed my entire WORLD to walk without pain and discomfort. IPT I am so thankful for you!! ‍♀️

Experiencia fantástica: So far my experience has been good and I'm pleased with the time and dedication of my provider (PT).

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to go for physical therapy. stuffs are amazing doing their job. I would highly recommend it to anyone!.

Experiencia fantástica: They are very friendly, always have a smile and take the time to listen, treat, and pay attention to every detail. I feel stronger every day and play my sport better through the exercises I am given. Excellent care! 100% recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: really a top notch organization. very courteous and prompt service. So personable and excellent communication skills- able to explain what's wrong and explain what to do to correct. great 5 star service.

Experiencia fantástica: Leanne and the team at Integrated PT got me back on my feet quickly after a torn calf muscle with a comprehensive treatment plan. Highly recommend Leanne for treatment of sports-related injuries!

Experiencia fantástica: I’m very thankful for the team at Integrated Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine. Eric has done a great job helping me recover from ACL surgery, and sessions were always enjoyable because the whole team was welcoming and interactive. There was always a balance between a relaxed atmosphere and professional care. Although I’m glad to have “graduated” from physical therapy, I’ll also miss my regular sessions and the people I came to know.

Experiencia fantástica: Drew has been a great listener about my pains and is working hard to provide me relief.

Experiencia fantástica: Top notch physical therapy team. The one-on-one approach is what I appreciate.

Experiencia fantástica: Brianna was knowledgeable and used a variety of techniques to address my concerns with a pinched nerve.

Experiencia fantástica: Professional, friendly, easing going. They make you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in.

Experiencia fantástica: The therapy that has been used on me has improved mobility, eased pain and generally has made me feel better. Friendly and skilled.

Experiencia fantástica: Nicole is very knowledgeable and friendly. This clinic is very efficient and thorough. I would recommend it to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: really a top notch organization. very courteous and prompt service. So personable and excellent communication skills- able to explain what's wrong and explain what to do to correct. great 5 star service.

Experiencia fantástica: I walked in with slight gimp and they pushed hard and I’m able to walk a lot better and less pain. They are all friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you very much!

Experiencia fantástica: Integrated PT is A+. The PTs all have doctorate degrees and really know their anatomy. Their caring, patient, and driven to alleviate your condition. They use the latest equipment. I would highly recommend this facility. I would return again.

Experiencia fantástica: Kris is a very personable, well-trained, and compassionate therapist whose focus is solely helping his his patients recover from their ailments. He develops a plan based on the individual's need and gives practical, simple exercises to do at home, which leads to measurable results. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Hurt my neck tubing and was unable to move it. Nothing was helping it feel better and it was getting worse day by day. Due to this, I decided to try PT and gave them a call and they were able to get me in immediately! I felt so much better after just one PT session. They walked me through the therapy in detail and gave me exercises to do at home. Took 3 sessions and my neck is 100% better. Thank you to everyone for working with me. You were all so friendly and professional.

Experiencia fantástica: Best physical therapy practice in the Midwest. Friendly and warm staff and Tate van Houten is simply gifted. Very generous with his time and he always gets to the source of the issue immediately.

Experiencia fantástica: Best PT- use Kris for D1 athlete point guard daughter, Hugh school soccer sons, husbands Ironman training injuries and my car accident - neck, back, head,hip. Always explains what he’s doing and sends us home with clear instructions.

Experiencia fantástica: Owner Tate Van Houten and his amazing team at Integrated have always exceeded my expectations...Expectations on communication, customer service and most importantly, on fixing what ails a (physically) aging 50 YO. I can give no greater nor louder review to the team at IPT than simply every referral that's asked of me. (insert high five)

Experiencia fantástica: I have been using Integrated Physical Therapy as needed now for over our years for several different reasons. Twice because i fell, and more lately because i injured my back and shoulder lifting heavy boxes while moving. They not only controlled my pain with the very first treatment, but restored the full function of my body quickly and effectively with just a few treatments. And they provided me specific exercises with diagrams and instructions that are easy to understand, that did wonders for me to contribute to my recovery.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm a professional athlete that has been undergoing an intense amount of injuries and surgeries the past 4 years. I've been working with Kris the past 3 weeks and am already seeing results in pain and stiffness reduction throughout my entire body. I have been to numerous physical therapist & sports medicine centers, and Kris by far has been the most effective. As far as sports performance and body functionality goes, Kris is your guy!

Experiencia fantástica: Integrated Physical Therapy helped my recovery with precise treatment that address my injury With timely helpful Therapy. I highly recommend Integrated Physical Therapy and their therapists for all your needs

Experiencia fantástica: The staff at IPT was commendable, from the front desk clerk, to the friendliness of the owner, to the expertise of the therapists. Recently my husband and I have both been patients for 3 different target areas. With the excellent guidance of our therapists we have both strengthened our target areas and are on the road to recovery. Thank you so much.

Experiencia fantástica: For those of you who are looking for an excellent Physical Therapist, I would highly recommend Dr. Leanne Pettit, of Integrated Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine, located at 1515 Linden st., Des Moines, Iowa. Leanne has been treating me for a "frozen shoulder" issue, and she has worked diligently and with much knowledge, care, kindness and professionalism in helping me heal from this condition. I have had a very fine experience working with the rest of the staff at Integrated Physical Therapy as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Efficient and effective PT. You will be please

Experiencia fantástica: Very knowledgeable, friendly and effective staff and very good facilities.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly staff, Clean clinic, knowledgeable staff members who want the best for you.

Experiencia fantástica: Stephanie has done a great job working with me to alleviate pain and to start strengthening my shoulder and arm.

Experiencia fantástica: Stephanie was very helpful, provided exercises and she likes to tire you out.

Experiencia fantástica: They are very knowledgeable and caring. They make you feel like your problem is very important to them.

Experiencia fantástica: Stephanie is caring and compassionate and worked magic on my injured arm! Everyone is so nice here.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Kris is the BEST! You experience his passion for physical therapy first hand each & every visit.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Kris is an expert, but he manages to make treatments fun. I really appreciate his knowledge and bedside manner.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been suffering from lymphedema in my legs for years and have spends thousthousands of dollars on compression socks, etc. Only to be introduce to Laurie Eickoff and her lymphedema PT. My legs are looking better and I feel better.

Experiencia fantástica: Recently diagnosed with lymphedema and having no clue what to except with decogestive therapy I went in with an open mind and full of hope. Laurie and the staff are knowledgable, friendly and the therapy is actually working!! Cannot wait for my next session and the kinesiology tape works swimmingly, you wouldn't believe it. I'm getting my compression sleeves soon. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Kris is awesome and very personable. He actually listens and then provides recommendations based on the issues I’m experiencing with my body. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I'm a very pessimistic person and by the time I was recommended to Integrated Physical Therapy I didn't believe I could be helped. However beginning the first day the staff and Dr. Kristopher Van Houten were all open, friendly and helpful. He was always honest and upfront with treatment and what he could or could not do. Turns out just as stubborn as me . And continued to think up and try new things to help. I not only continue to go, I trust him and the staff. I also would recommend them to anyone and everyone.

Experiencia fantástica: I was very reluctant to attend physical therapy but after two weeks of googling hip stretches, walking with a limp, and overall slow recovery, I gave in. I’m very happy I chose this place! The staff is very knowledgeable, kind, and attentive. My range of motion has dramatically improved and I’m walking a lot better. The stretches they’re showing me have actually helped, and this is coming from someone that HATES stretching. Also, I didn’t even know I could massage my scar tissue to relieve sensitivity and swelling. It looks a lot better now than it did before. With all that said, I’m very happy with the services provided here.

Experiencia fantástica: I first went to Tate Van Houten for physical therapy on my hip because it was very painful and I couldn't walk very well. We had a family trip to Disney planned and Tate helped me to walk all the Disney parks with my family FAR better than I ever thought I would! I then had a hip replacement and immediately went back to Tate and he has made a WORLD of difference in my recovery. I know of others who have had hip replacements that didn't do as well as I did and I totally credit Tate for that! Tate has a very through understanding of how and why your body's doing what it's doing and how to correct it. He's also very patient with me, listens very carefully to how things have been going and I never leave with unanswered questions or without a clear understanding of what I should be doing at home. I would, and do, recommend Tate to anyone with physical therapy needs! He's a lifesaver!

Experiencia fantástica: I drove from Kansas City to visit Integrated Physical Therapy on the 24th of July, 2019. Tate Van Houten is the therapist I had arranged to see because he is one of only 200 practitioners of a technique called postural restoration, or PRI (Postural Restoration Institute.) I spent a great deal of time studying the science online but felt I needed a practitioner to put it all together for me. The mission of PRI is as follows: “The Postural Restoration Institute® (PRI) was established to explore and explain the science of postural adaptations, asymmetrical patterns and the influence of polyarticular chains of muscles. Our mission is based on the development of an innovative treatment that addresses the primary contributions of postural kinematic movement dysfunction.” In my words, unlike most any other therapy you might receive, Tate and his crew understand the importance of posture and muscle imbalances from the inside out, meaning not just, “I have a sore knee or shoulder,” but he can tell you why it hurts or is underperforming from the perspective of our anatomy and the way our bodies are formed and work together. This means if your knee hurts, it is quite possible there is a misalignment going on in your foot or your hip, or some other part of your body that is causing it. Most of us are right side dominant, which I did not know. Our diaphragm on the right side is much larger than our left. Something as simple as this can allow those of us with incorrect posture to permanently twist our bodies to one side or the other and forever suffer the consequences of being out of balance. Glutes quit firing, calves take over, feet turn out, ankles get weak—you name it, postural imbalances are at the root of much of our pain and frustration. I am an older athlete, mainly a runner and cyclist. If I have an imbalance, it gets exacerbated by the thousands every step I take or revolution I make. For me, weak glutes from my body being twisted and out of alignment has caused meniscus surgeries, dead-butt syndrome, gate imbalances, bunions, and back problems. Isn’t it crazy that the thing we spend most of our time doing—living in our bodies—is the thing we know the least about? Integrated Physical Therapy and Tate Van Houten is your alternative. His knowledge seems endless to me. What’s more, he’s been able to retain it, speak it, explain it, teach it. He is a great guy and spent an extraordinary amount of time working with me to be sure I understood the principles behind what I needed to do to fix my various imbalances. He listened to my questions—and I had plenty—without making me feel rushed or that he was trying to get me out of there. He was truly interested in discovering what could help me and did everything he could to ensure I had a plan to make myself better. I left with a dozen handouts of really helpful exercises, along with information on how to do everyday things like sit, cross your legs, stand, work at a desk, and the proper way to sleep on your side. Fascinating! The office is conveniently located, the staff friendly, and the facility clean and well-equipped. If you are struggling to find a solution to pain, injury, or you just want to walk better or perform better at a sport, go see Tate. The choice to do so will be the best one for your body you might just ever make.

Experiencia fantástica: I've used Integrated Physical Therapy on and off for the last 3 years. I was treated a number of times by Tate Van Houten before hip replacement surgery. I'm currently getting physical therapy by him after significant foot surgery 2 1/2 months ago. After 8 weeks of immobilization, I started therapy with Tate. After a short time, he had me walking using crutches followed by only walking with a boot. I'm on the verge of eliminating a need for the boot. I can't express my appreciation enough for all the help that Integrated Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine has given me to get me back to health.

Experiencia fantástica: After stem-cell procedures on my knee, Regenexx advised that I go to Integrated PT and Sports Medicine. My experience has been positive in that my physical therapist is knowledgeable about stem-cell therapy, patient with an old guy like me and is able to answer all of my questions about my PT exercises and daily activities. Everyone at the center is friendly making my visits pleasant.

Experiencia fantástica: Laurie and her team are excellent at their jobs! All of my questions were answered and the instructions for therapy was hands on. I'm using therapy at home to get back on my feet! Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: Very knowledgeable and helpful at helping people feel better

Experiencia fantástica: Always great results from a caring team!!

Experiencia fantástica: Andrew does a great job! Everyone in the clinic is so nice and helpful!
