What clients say about the cupping here
“Brennan has been working on my shoulder rotation for the past 3 weeks and I'm already feeling a noticeable difference in the range of motion and ability to weight lift.”
“From the moment I called to make an appointment, to my last visit today, I can honestly say I was treated with respected, compassion, and professionalism.”
“They were extremely helpful in explaining the exercises and making sure I was doing them correctly.”
“I felt comfortable with everyone and always felt as I could ask any question that came to mind.”
“I recently had a total knee replacement and Mike, Michelle and Anna (and the office staff) helped me exceed my orthopedic surgeons timeline for the recovery so I could return to work early.”
“The large environment is clean and professional and doesn’t feel clinical.”
“My favorite thing about going here is how welcoming and genuinely friendly everyone is.”
From the reviews
Flex is an outstanding facility! I had some pretty bad sciatica and my doctor referred me to get physical therapy. I chose Flex and I am glad I did. Mike has a great facility and a very professional team. Mike provided the initial analysis and I then worked with Michelle for the next 4 weeks.
FLEX Physical Therapy in Council Bluffs is a 5 star rehabilitation facility! I recently had a total knee replacement and Mike, Michelle and Anna (and the office staff) helped me exceed my orthopedic surgeons timeline for the recovery so I could return to work early.
When mobility and safety are your primary goals in your daily life, Flex Physical Therapy is the place to go. I have been in physical therapy for over six years due to age-related balance and mobility issues. I have tried two places other than Flex in that time, but I always come "home.
Outstanding service by a very professional and caring staff. I have had chronic shoulder issues for years and they worked diligently to help me improve my range of motion and reduce my pain. They took the time to get to know me and treat me as an individual.
What to expect from your first cupping session
New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.
