He enjoys working with people of all ages and abilities, but does especially enjoy working with those establishing or returning to a work out program, and those pursuing endurance sports.

Owner, Physical Therapist, Eugene, OR

June 4, 2025

I came to work with Jesse by way of my running coach. I had a goal of running the Eugene Half-Marathon this year (2024) and started training back in September 2023.

By November, I had injured my knee trying to push harder during the training. All of November was very painful. That is when I started seeing Jesse for physical therapy.

Jesse and I worked on my mobility, strength and conditioning, running posture, breathing, and all kinds of warm up and exercise routine that had me running faster and longer within a month.

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.

Helped Me Resolve My Back Issues

I’m convinced that Mariel knows everything about the athlete’s body. Nice, intimate facility with plenty of equipment for anything you need to work on. They helped me resolve my back issues and transition into better overall mobility and strength training.

Exceptional Care from Mariel and Jesse

This is a review for Mariel and Jesse: I have had many massages with Jesse. He is methodical, receptive, and thoughtful with every massage. If you have a trouble spot he will definitely spend the time working on it but will budget his time to make sure you end up with a full body massage as well. I have never left without feeling better and that I wasn’t worth it. He is very good at getting the knots and tension out without subjecting you to abject torture. A true sports massage with the benefit of full body relaxation. The only caution I’d give is that he is in a “gym” space. If you do not mind the VERY occasional “sounds of the gym”, you will be fine. However, if you use the massage room as a means of escape into a quiet, serene, transcendent space without ANY external distraction - there may be the occasional thud of a weight. But by no means are the sounds constant. I can still find my peace. I worked with Mariel initially for my back and then my shoulder. I started by seeing Mariel for my back which started to progressively improve and during this time my shoulder flared up. I didn’t need a new referral, I didn’t feel bad about bringing it up, we seamlessly transitioned into working on both without any issue. She is a consummate professional, insightful, and knowledgeable. At the same time, she is fun, laid-back, and gives reasonable advice and adjustments to work towards your goal. I would trust her with any physical therapy ailment I have.
