Strength with Care. Healing with Intention. At Zena Physical Therapy, we believe healing begins the moment you feel seen, heard, and welcomed. Our name, Zena, reflects who we are and how we practice—rooted in hospitality, feminine strength, and compassionate care. Founded by two women physical therapists, Zena was created as a response to what healthcare often misses: time, connection, and individualized treatment. We specialize in headaches, migraines, neck pain, TMJ dysfunction, and chronic pain—conditions that are frequently dismissed, misunderstood, or treated with a one-size-fits-all approach. Here, your story matters. We take the time to understand not just where you hurt, but why—looking at posture, movement, stress, lifestyle, and the nervous system as a whole. Our approach blends evidence-based physical therapy with a calm, supportive environment where your body can truly begin to heal. Zena is a space where strength and softness coexist. Where women lead with skill and empathy. Where pain is addressed with curiosity, respect, and intention. Whether you've been living with pain for years or are seeking answers after being told "everything looks normal," you are welcome here. This is physical therapy designed around you—unrushed, personalized, and empowering.

Two experienced DPTs with deep roots in Summit County — and even deeper roots in compassionate, whole-person care.
Erica Walker, DPT is a co-founder and physical therapist at Zena Physical Therapy. Originally from Michigan, Erica has made Summit County her home and has been practicing physical therapy in the community since 2011. She earned her Doctor of Physical Therapy from the University of Maryland in 2008. Erica's approach to care is rooted in the belief that the body heals best when the nervous system feels safe and supported. She works holistically, addressing movement, alignment, breath, and the body's natural ability to restore balance. Her advanced training includes master-level dry needling, craniosacral therapy, treatment of temporomandibular disorders and therapeutic cupping. She has a special focus on migraines, headaches, concussion recovery, and complex orthopedic pain, guiding patients with a calm, intuitive style that emphasizes listening, connection, and sustainable healing. At Zena, Erica is known for creating a steady, grounding presence where patients feel cared for as whole people—not just treated for symptoms. Outside the clinic, Erica finds joy in the rhythm of mountain life and the deep connection to nature it offers.
