Jesse Burlingham brings presence, precision, and purpose to his work as a Licensed Massage Therapist at Zenith Performance and Wellness. He is one of only six certified Master Myoskeletal Therapists (MMT) in Oregon and among just 300 globally to hold this elite designation. His approach blends advanced manual therapy with a deep passion for helping people feel and move better—whether they're athletes, outdoor adventurers, or managing long-standing pain. The MMT certification, developed by renowned educator Dr. Erik Dalton, requires over 210 hours of advanced training in structural alignment, biomechanics, and pain neuroscience. This methodology targets the root causes of dysfunction—not just the symptoms—by combining principles of osteopathy, physical therapy, and soft-tissue mobilization. Jesse’s journey is grounded in service. A U.S. Army veteran and former law enforcement officer, he returned to massage therapy in 2018 with renewed purpose: to deliver results-driven, recovery-focused care that supports both physical performance and long-term resilience. At Zenith, he often collaborates with physical therapists and strength coaches to provide fully integrated care. Clients come to Jesse for more than massage—they come for trusted partnership in their wellness journey. He customizes every session to support mobility, reduce pain, regulate the nervous system, and restore functional movement. Outside the clinic, Jesse is deeply connected to Eugene’s cycling and outdoor communities. He finds renewal through time in nature, backpacking, long distance bicycling, motorcycling and the companionship of his dog, Journey. North Star: To create meaningful connection through healing touch—helping people move with less pain, more confidence, and deeper awareness. Rooted in service, nature, and community, Jesse brings presence and purpose to every session, honoring the human behind the body and the journey behind the pain.

This is the best and only place you need to go for quality physical therapy and personal training. They finally get to the root cause of issues and fix everything impacting your current injury. No longer do you have to just accept the limitations of injuries or work around them, but instead can find a real path towards recovery and get to feel healthy again. And they are great for helping up learn how hard to push yourself, and when, as you correct the smaller movements or muscle imbalances that you go to this place in the first place.

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.

Progress has been substantial with Dr. Mike

I came to Zenith PT for a long standing structural issue after completing long walks like the Camino Santiago (400+ miles) and a recent half-marathon. While we are just starting this journey, the progress has been substantial and I am very happy with Dr. Mike Robinson's approach. It is methodical and gradual. Their website makes it easy to remember the exercises, with the videos, and to keep on track. This is a beneficial partnership in which I am learning how to better take care of myself for sustained results. I highly recommend this group.

At 83, I’m walking and active thanks to PT

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.
