This place has changed my quality of life
This place has changed my quality of life a million times over! I met Mariel when I had severe shoulder pain and could barely open a door—this had lasted a few years.
Part of the reason I initially went with Mariel is because we talked about my long-term fitness goals, and Mariel said all this was possible through Zenith.
My crippling shoulder pain is now well in the rearview mirror, and we’ve been well on my way to being the strongest I’ve ever been.
If you're looking for people that can help from recovery and then onto your fitness goals, Zenith is definitely the place you'll want to be. This is very high quality care that I would highly recommend.

I have the tools to continue with my fitness goals
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.

Back running after just two weeks
I was having ankle issues and basically could hardly run at all without discomfort. I've never had major issues in 3 decades of running and this was severely impacting my life.
Scheduling PT through my doctor was going nowhere, so after a year of inaction—and honestly, despair—I decided to find PT myself.
I'm very glad a friend recommended Zenith! It was super easy to set up my first visit and Mike Robinson has been terrific at figuring out what was going on with my body. I've seen significant changes in just a few weeks. Mike is clearly invested in not just solving my ankle issue, but also setting me up to avoid or reduce issues in the future.
I was already back running after just two weeks—really wish I'd done this a year ago.
Also, I signed up for the 10 visit option, which turned out to be a good move. Going in regularly has kept me on top of the exercises, and Mike has adapted things as I've improved.
Could not have asked for better care or results!

We will be back with any future needs for PT
My daughter benefitted so much by working out an injury with Jen initially, and then joining the strength/stretching classes for other runners.
It also gave her the opportunity to become friends with other distance runners she'd previously competed against in HS XC and track. I think that was her favorite part.
We will be back with any future needs for PT!

It feels so good to be running pain free
I came across Zenith through a local running class. I had been trying to deal with knee pain through my own strength training and stretching. After no progress on my own, I saw Jesse, who quickly figured out the source was my previous spinal nerve damage flaring up.
My pain was gone within a week following a light stretching and strength regime. I’ve seen several physical therapists for my back, and while they were all generally great, Jesse seemed the most knowledgeable and understanding.
He didn’t force me to do bridges when I said they felt awful to me and instead came up with a different exercise that still helped me build strength in my at-home plan.
It feels so good to be running/moving pain free.

Back to throwing and training full time
I first came in due to tearing the labrum in both shoulders in my senior year of football. I was unsure if I was going to be able to compete in my final year of basketball and track. Lucky enough for me, my friend recommended that I go see Jesse for help. That was the best decision I could have made.
Before I was even able to get in for an MRI, Jesse was able to diagnose the tear — and better yet — start getting to work on treatment. I went from hardly being able to hold my arms above my head with lots of pain and instability, to a month later being able to play basketball every day almost pain free.
I continued treatment all through basketball and into track, where I was still unsure whether I was going to be able to compete in my throwing events. Luckily for me, Jesse was able to create a treatment program that allowed me to come back better than ever! With his amazing help, I was able to work back into all of my throwing events — while also making it to state in all 3!
Following that season last May, I decided to still undergo surgery. Of course, following surgery, I chose to go back to see Jesse for rehab. With his expertise I was able to make a speedy (and safe) recovery. I went from not being able to (or allowed to) move my arm, to two months later having nearly all of my range of motion back. Three months post-op, I was already able to get back to some light weightlifting.
Thanks to all of Jesse's help, after six months I was able to be back to throwing and training full time as a collegiate athlete. Not to brag up Jesse too much, but he also helped me become a better athlete and put together a training program specifically for me outside of physical therapy.
On a final note, though I spent the majority of my time with Jesse, every PT at Zenith is very knowledgeable and professional, and it’s very obvious that they all take pride in and care about their work. If you would’ve told me last year that I was going to miss going to physical therapy, I would’ve called you crazy. After spending the last year and a half in PT and just finishing a month ago, I can honestly say I do.
I highly recommend Zenith to anyone suffering from any kind of issue. You won’t regret it!
