Dam to Dam here I come!
I went to see Todd Schemper in Des Moines. I am a runner who had been plagued by plantar fasciitis for the last 3 years. With Todd's help I now have that under control; and more importantly know what was causing it!
The staff at Kinetic Edge is so knowledgeable n encouraging. Thank you Todd for your expertise along with James n Kati. Abi greets me with a smile, opening the door n always wants to know how I am. Thanks all for cheering me on!
I was very impressed by the whole body approach to wellness. Todd didn't only concentrate on my area of concern (frequent headaches & backaches); he saw how my body worked as a whole, from the feet to the head. He also taught me to breathe - I honestly could not activate my core muscles before he creatively worked with me, teaching me how to "find" them. I plan to see him periodically for reviews on posture, breathing, and overall fitness. The rest of the team is very kind and helpful. Our son have a few appointments with Todd who did a great job being creative and helping him know how to move in fun ways that didn't seem like exercise. I think everyone would benefit from a couple sessions with these therapists; there are so many little things (posture, breathing) that can make a big difference in how good one feels!
My daughter was the first in our family to see Todd. As a new runner, she was experiencing hip pain and it was affecting her gait. Todd was able to pinpoint exactly where she was weak and imbalanced and within a couple of weeks of diligently completing his prescribed exercises, she was back to running pain-free. Seeing the success she had, I began to see Todd for neck and shoulder soreness that I’d had for years and had accepted as normal. Knowing I practiced yoga regularly, Todd showed me how to make adjustments to my breathing and postures to help release the tension in my neck. These were simple adjustments, but they’ve made a huge difference. I highly recommend Todd and his staff at Kinetic Edge Physical Therapy.
Todd tailored the treatments for me and my pace. And his approach was to empower me to be able to help myself after an initial period of working with him.
After many, many years of running with no serious injuries, I ended Dam to Dam this year with a very painful calf muscle. When nothing I was doing on my own seemed to help, I called Kinetic Edge and began working with Rick Hill. It was clear from the first meeting, which included a thorough analysis of how I walk and run and how my muscles react, that I was right where I needed to be. The advice and exercise program Rick gave me has made a huge difference in all aspects of my running, not just getting over the one injury. Fingers crossed that I stay injury free, but if the need arises, I will definitely be back. I highly recommend this team to anyone who needs physical therapy for any reason.
