Check out our 5 star review - I’m going to ditto what many others have said here. Jon is professional, knowledgeable, and caring! He is passionate in applying his experience and knowledge to make a positive shift in lives!

I’ve had my fair share of physical therapist experiences over the years, but have yet to run into someone like Jon. He’s years of experience and knowledge shines through with his neuroscience approach to the body, striving to determine the root cause of pain and inflammation. After gathering my history, he suspected the root cause, of which I thought he was crazy, but I thought to myself, roll with this and see where this goes for a couple sessions. Well, to my surprise, Jon was spot on with his suspicion and immediately started working towards pain reduction and strengthening. Not only am I experiencing results in just a few visits, but Jon is also empowering me with knowledge, to me, that’s huge. I too much mention, Jon is armed with unique tools, which provides a variety of options working with multiple client needs. I highly recommend Jon, he’s one of the best I’ve experienced in the industry.

Check out our 5 star review - We had tried chiropractic care as well as another physical therapist and my daughter's injury was making no progress in healing. She then started seeing Jon for her sports injury. He listens carefully and understands both the needed movement for the sport as well as viewing the injury in a holistic way (not just the exact site of the injury). My daughter is significantly better. My husband and son also needed help and Jon was able to get them back to pain-free playing shape! Jon also really cares about his patients - he cares about how they are doing beyond the physical aspect. We are so glad we found the physical therapist we needed and will definitely go to him any time we need help!

Check out our 5 star review - My daughter was injured playing soccer in high school. For the next four years she suffered with hip and lower back pain that failed to resolve with either chiropractic or conventional physical therapy treatment. I was concerned that she would suffer with these pains and be unable to return to her active lifestyle. Fortunately, I know Jon Schultz who owns Optimum Performance Physical Therapy in Urbandale. He is very skilled and talented in dealing with chronic pain. She worked with him for a short time and he was able to significantly reduce my daughter’s pain while also improving her overall function. She can now hike and jog without complaining of hip or lower back pain. Also, her outlook on exercising and being active has been restored. I am pleased that I decided to recommend that she go see Jon at Optimum Performance Physical Therapy. He excels at successfully treating individuals who have given hope of achieving pain relief.

Check out our 5 star review - If you want to get better fast, go here.

Jon is super passionate about getting you better and has a very different approach to 90% of therapists out there. He doesn't pass you off to some tech who might end up leaving you worse off than before, and as soon as you walk into the clinic, you'll see that Jon is doing things that no one else in the area has tried yet, or maybe they just don't have the budget or time to learn. Hard to say why there aren't more clinics like this.

Check out our 5 star review - As a triathlete, parent of a competitive swimmer, and a physical therapist myself, I know how important it is to have a PT who really understands the mechanics of a sport as specialized as swimming. When a friend called me highly upset that his competitive swimmer may have a season ending injury, I knew exactly where to send them. Jon was able to see them quickly and not only came up with a rehab plan for the injury, but also helped them with a plan to build fitness and improve in other areas! The family (& swimmer) were so thankful they were able to see someone like Jon who has a comprehensive understanding of swimming, including the competitive and mental aspects. Jon and Optimum Performance is my first choice for sports, especially swimming, rehab needs!

Check out our 5 star review - Professional, knowledgeable, caring, accommodating and thorough. My daughter was experiencing acute pain in her shoulder just days before the start of the Iowa Girls State Basketball Tournament. Jon quickly evaluated the situation and put together a plan focused on pain relief and the ability to perform her best against the best. He worked entirely around her schedule and put her in the best possible position to be successful. Highly recommend Jon and Optimum Performance for your PT needs.

Check out our 5 star review - Jon’s education and experience definitely set him apart. He has a great space, conveniently located with everything necessary to treat your issues. I’m getting through an unrealized injury from a move. Jon rescued me with a fabulous radiant heating pad and compression belt. I’m continuing my routine workouts and am fully recovered. If you are in need of a PT, I highly recommend Jon.

Check out our 5 star review - I was diagnosed with tendinitis in my heel recently and it got to the point that every step I took involved some degree of pain. While other physical therapists were recommended by the ortho I saw, Jon was the only PT I considered. He helped my daughter work through a tricky high ankle sprain two years ago and I saw firsthand his holistic patient approach at that time. I was able to get in right away, and Jon attentively listened to all of my symptoms, asked me all kinds of lifestyle questions, watched my natural stride, I could go on and on. The steroid I was prescribed was part of my treatment plan, but overall the plan was to correct some things in my stride and other natural behaviors that I never would have given any thought to. The addition of Nordic Poles to relieve pressure on my heel as I walk was part of my regular treatment plan, but I loved them so much that I bought my own pair and tell everyone I know about them. I'm guessing many other places I would have gone would have slapped on the steroid patch and sent me on my way with some stretching exercises. Because of Jon's interest in overall health, activity level, and lifestyle choices, he digs very deep to get to the root cause of whatever is driving the pain you are experiencing. Now that I'm released from PT, I've already received a follow up email to make sure everything is going well, even though I think his goal is to not have a repeat patient. I am one very happy customer!

Check out our 5 star review - I contacted Jon after I injured my back and wasn’t finding any relief after a couple of weeks of rest. As an active person I was feeling very down in the dumps and eager to get back into my routine. Jon was very empathetic and I knew immediately how passionate Jon was about getting me back on my feet. Working with Jon was an amazing experience as he provided me with options and several tools so that I could better take care of myself long term. I am grateful our paths crossed and I would highly recommend Jon. I wonderful experience to say the least!

Check out our 5 star review - When my daughter had shoulder pain from competitive swimming, I had her work with Jon at Optimum Performance PT.. He quickly assessed the source of pain and developed a comprehensive plan to get her safely back in the pool. He is passionate about working with athletes, especially swimmers, and has the specialized equipment and expertise to quickly resolve pain. My daughter has enjoyed working with Jon and her times have also consistently improved due to his rehabilitation. Jon understands what it takes to improve sports performance while also preventing injuries from improper training. I highly room recommend working with Jon at OPPT!

Check out our 5 star review - I was terrified to go to PT after my knee replacement. Well-meaning friends had shared their experiences and used words like: "forced my knee to bend", "drove me to tears", etc. Jon was nothing like that. He immediately put me at ease, never challenging me beyond what I could handle that day. His holistic approach to healing was refreshing. Even though it was my left knee that underwent surgery it impacted my entire body and he addressed specific issues as my body changed and adjusted in the healing process.
Thank you!

Check out our 5 star review - We met Jon years ago and he helped get my daughter, Maggie, healthy after an injury prone AAU season. My son has also been working with Jon on his knee issues using the Breathbelt and dynamic warm ups. Jon is excellent at getting to the underlying cause of the injury (not just treatment and rehab). He has a special focus on posture, alignment and movement patterns. My kids have benefited greatly from Jon's thorough and very personal assessments of them and he continues to be an active part of their athletic careers.
