I am thrilled to be able to hike Mount Pisgah again, for the first time in five years without knee pain!!

I highly recommend Mike Robinson at Zenith. Mike helped me understand and manage pain, provided a wide range of strategies, and took a holistic approach. The sessions are focused on treatment, rather than testing for insurance/billing purposes. He taught me how to progress with the exercises and use weights for the first time at age 60, patiently teaching me good form, so as not to hurt myself. It was a very different experience than my previous physical therapy, and proved to have excellent results.

Mike’s encouraging, positive, approach, along with the exercises he shared on Zenith's websites, and seeing improvements each week, kept me motivated. Zenith have a great online system, making it easy to set one’s own appointments. Although they are geared to runners, they do support people who are not, or are wannabe’s. Highly recommend them.

5/5 would definitely recommend Zenith

I had a great experience at Zenith! Mariel, Mike, and everyone else were incredibly helpful in getting me back to running after a bout of Achilles tendinitis. I felt like the workouts and feedback Mariel gave me were unique to my circumstances and the personal touch seemed to make the recovery go much more smoothly. 5/5 would definitely recommend Zenith Performance to anyone looking for a PT!

Mariel has helped me find my glutes!

Mariel has helped me find my glutes! I have had an existing right knew issue for a long time and before coming to Zenith and Mariel. Since the very first day I have been blown away by the professional help and knowledge! Great homework exercises and demonstrations for proper form has helped my knee feel normal again. Mariel is extremely personable and fun while still maintaining that professional material to hone in on issue areas. I will be recommending Zenith and especially Mariel, to anyone and everyone looking for a physical therapist!

PT helped me avoid surgery and rebuild safely

Mike was fantastic. I came in with a meniscal tear with no great surgical solutions. I hadn't run for several months and was worried that my running days might be behind me. But after 6 months or so, I've built back to being almost where I was before. There was no rush and no pressure on my rehab. Just a steady progression that pushed me forward.
