Zenith Takes PT to the Next Level — Running Pain-Free

Kanoe B

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

July 16, 2025

I started experiencing a persistent pain in my right hip after returning to running after several years. I am active and participate in sports and the pain was keeping me from my routine runs, races and my overall fitness. Mike evaluated me and got to the root of the issue. He is innovative in his approach and integrates elements of massage into the work. He is fun to work with, communicates regularly and uses humor as we approach some difficult movements that push me out of my comfort zone. After each visit, I receive a set of exercises to complete at home between sessions. As I got stronger, the pain decreased and I was able to return to my routine. We targeted goals, and he continues to tailor each session and prescribe a set of exercises to meet the unique characteristics of my body type and performance needs. I highly recommend Zenith; they take PT to the next level.

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.

Skilled and compassionate physical therapist

I have been seeing Mariel for about 6 months now, and I only have positive things to say. Aside from being nice and easy to get along with, Mariel is very knowledgeable and makes things easy to understand. My body feels so much better after working with Mariel, and the best part is I have learned so much about how my body functions and moves, which has helped me understand how to take better care of myself and prevent future issues. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate physical therapist!

PT helped my posture and relieved neck pain fast

I worked with Dr Mariel Hammond for my poor posture and neck pains. Dr Hammond did a comprehensive analysis identifying my issues and came up with a plan to help alleviate my short term pain issues while strengthening my body to better support itself. the 1:1 sessions are second to none and her education and experience will help you toward relief starting on the first visit.

I hiked Mount Pisgah pain-free for the first time!

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.
