10/10 — Life-changing, comprehensive program and treatment!

I had been dealing with chronic neck, shoulder, and back pain for two years following multiple injuries. I was progressively getting worse and eventually could no longer participate in many of my normal activities. Before coming to Zenith, I had been given a permanent disability diagnosis, was being referred to neurosurgeons, and was told I might never feel like myself again or play volleyball. The pain was affecting every part of my life.

Within just two months at Zenith, I am pain-free and back to my former athletic self! Jesse was able to pinpoint the underlying cause rather than simply treating my symptoms, and we were able to decrease my pain and limitations surprisingly quickly. The hour-long sessions were thorough and addressed multiple issues, and I was given a home program that helped me continue progressing between sessions.

As I improved, I transitioned into additional services at Zenith, including strength training, yoga, and group training twice a week. I have my youthful self back!

I'm incredibly grateful to Jesse and everyone at Zenith. The combination of individualized treatment, education, and ongoing strength and movement training has truly been life-changing. I highly recommend Zenith to anyone who feels like they've tried everything and isn't ready to accept a permanent pain or disability.

What Clients Are Saying About Our 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 PT—tailored support that helped them move, train, and feel their best.

Zenith is so much more than a gym

I have belonged to a number of gyms/fitness centers over the years and Zenith P&W is most certainly on the top of my list. I have been weight training for 6 months with a couple of trainers who have been top notch. Currently, I am working primarily with Ropheka Greshom and she is an amazing trainer! She truly listens, takes the time to understand my goals, and knows exactly how to tailor every workout. She's friendly, fun, incredibly knowledgeable, and always makes the gym a place I look forward to being. What really sets her apart is her ability to know when to encourage, when to challenge, and exactly how much to push each of us to help us grow without feeling overwhelmed or getting injured. She creates a supportive environment where everyone feels seen, motivated, and capable of more than they thought possible. I also love that Zenith Performance and Wellness is so much more than a gym. It's a full-service wellness center not only offering exceptional fitness training, but also physical therapy, and massage therapy—all under one roof. The entire team creates a welcoming, supportive environment where people of all fitness levels feel comfortable and encouraged. If you're looking for a place that truly invests in your health and well-being, I can't recommend Ropheka and Zenith Performance and Wellness enough!

Training That Got Me to Division 1

Ropheka is an excellent trainer who cares about the whole person. She took the time to get to know me, my goals, and what I needed to succeed. She has helped me become stronger, quicker, and more confident by tailoring my training to meet my goals in and out of season. Although the workouts are challenging, she makes them enjoyable by encouraging you throughout. These workouts have been an integral part of preparing me to play Division 1 volleyball.
