At 83, I’m walking and active thanks to PT

Dorothy H

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Mike is the best! While gardening last summer I overextended some muscles resulting in an inability to walk. I could barely walk from one room to another in my home. I could not garden or swim laps weekly. Within six weeks Mike had me walking again. With regular bi-monthly appointments I continued improving as all the leg and hip muscles were being addressed. Now, I am on a monthly maintenance program.
I can walk as far as I would like, usually 1 1/2 to 2 miles several times per week interspersed with exercise sessions in the pool. I can do laps, but at this point I find specific pool exercises more helpful. I can use the gym equipment including free weights. And I have a lot of really good exercises from Mike to help me for the rest of my life be stronger and healthier.
Mike has given me all kinds of strengthening exercises to help my whole body be stronger. I am very grateful for his knowledge and careful treatment of my various physical challenges. At eighty-three years old I am looking forward to many more active years. :) Thank you, Mike.

What Clients Are Saying About Our Rehab PT

From weekend warriors to elite athletes, our clients trust Zenith for expert care and real results. Here is what they had to say about their experience with our Rehab PT—tailored support that helped them move, train, and feel their best.

Ran a 24-hour race just 9 weeks after a neck injury

I originally started at Zenith (with Jesse) for a nerve injury in my neck/back that kept me from turning my head and certainly from running. With Jesse's help both in session and with an at-home program I was able to recover in time to run a 24 hour race only 9 weeks after my first appointment. I've continued to improve as a runner with regular sessions at Zenith over the past 18 months that have included gate analysis, strengthening programs, and injury consultation. If you have a nagging injury or want to simply improve your running go visit Jesse and the team at Zenith!

Skilled and compassionate physical therapist

I have been seeing Mariel for about 6 months now, and I only have positive things to say. Aside from being nice and easy to get along with, Mariel is very knowledgeable and makes things easy to understand. My body feels so much better after working with Mariel, and the best part is I have learned so much about how my body functions and moves, which has helped me understand how to take better care of myself and prevent future issues. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate physical therapist!

PT helped my posture and relieved neck pain fast

I worked with Dr Mariel Hammond for my poor posture and neck pains. Dr Hammond did a comprehensive analysis identifying my issues and came up with a plan to help alleviate my short term pain issues while strengthening my body to better support itself. the 1:1 sessions are second to none and her education and experience will help you toward relief starting on the first visit.
