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.

Knowledgeable, Caring, and Committed

Dr. Mariel Hammond is very knowledgeable, caring, and committed to her practice. She does a great job explaining her approach, allowing you to get the most out of your PT sessions.

The Absolute Best for Athletes

Mariel Hammond, PT is the absolute best! She is thorough, knowledgeable, and inquisitive — she wants to figure out the root cause of the problem and then sets out to fix it. My daughter's knee pain was affecting her ability to compete at her best as a competitive alpine ski racer. Mariel figured out what was causing the pain and then put together a comprehensive workout plan that constantly evolved throughout their sessions. We have seen tremendous improvement in her pain, and she has gained strength and flexibility as well as knowledge to hopefully prevent further injuries. I highly recommend Mariel Hammond, PT.

ACL Recovery — She Set Me on the Right Track!

I worked with Mariel a week after ACL surgery and she pushed me to get my strength back and set me on the right track! The exercises we did felt very beneficial. Zenith as a whole and Mariel were very encouraging and enjoyable to work with!
