As a lifelong athlete, I have had my fair share of overuse injuries. I hate to admit that I am getting older and now prone to acute injuries—like pulling my hamstring while running around the coed softball field.

Working with Jesse over the last 8 months has been enlightening in ways that prior PT sessions have left lacking. In developing a comprehensive game plan—including stretching, lifting, running, and plyometrics—I have been able to recover and have the tools to continue with my fitness goals.

In the event I need PT again, I know who to call.

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.

Would give Zenith 10 stars if I could

I can't recommend Mariel enough! She is incredibly kind, patient, and thorough-- truly the best PT I've ever had. She takes the time to explain the biomechanics behind my injuries and how each exercise or technique would help. Mariel is really flexible and intuitive. If something didn't quite work for my body, she always had an alternative ready. She listens, adapts, and genuinely cares about your progress and really tailors your treatment to your personal goals/lifestyle. She also makes herself available outside of sessions in case something goes wrong when doing the regimens on our own which was so helpful. Mariel is also just so easy to talk to-- I genuinely looked forward to my PT sessions! When I first came in, I couldn't run due to a hip and ankle injury and now thanks to her, I'm running pain-free and am stronger and more mobile than I was pre-injuries! Would give her/Zenith 10 stars if I could.

PT helped strengthen more than just my knee

Mike has been so helpful in rehabilitating my knee. Not only did he help me with exercises to strengthen the muscles around my knee, but also showed me stretches and exercises for my hips and low back, which made a big difference. I'm now able to go on longer walks and hikes with limited knee pain, and I look forward to continuing to use the tools he gave me to keep my knee in top shape. Highly recommend!

I love Zenith—PT that fits how I train

I love Zenith! Working with a PT who understands my running goals and can incorporate strength and conditioning into treatment—along with helping me understand imbalances or injuries as they come up—has been so valuable. Thanks Mike!
