Sergent Wellness

Sergent Wellness Tired of the runaround: doctor visits, unnecessary Xrays, MRIs, "take this" "Don't lift that" “Just rest”? Ready to reclaim the lifestyle you love? Knox, KY.

You are in the RIGHT place. Our approach uses tailored recovery plans to support you every step of the way. Sergent Wellness began in 2014 inside a small CrossFit gym on Frankfort Avenue. Dr. Julie Sergent started her practice in a space that barely fit a treatment table, but she had a clear mission: to provide hands-on, patient-centered physical therapy without the restrictions of insurance. Afte

r years of working in traditional healthcare settings, she saw how rushed appointments and productivity quotas often stood in the way of real healing and lasting change. She knew there had to be a better way. What started as a small operation grew steadily as more patients sought out care that put them first. Over the years, Dr. Julie treated patients in a few local gyms and shared spaces before opening her first stand-alone location in the fall of 2018. Opening the doors to this dedicated space was a dream come to life. Over the years, Sergent Wellness has continued to evolve—deepening community connections, expanding techniques through ongoing education, and continuing to grow its wellness team. Through it all, the heart of our practice has remained the same: delivering personalized care, whole-body wellness, and sustainable lifestyle change through advanced therapies like dry needling, movement-based education, postural restoration, pelvic floor support, PEMF, and more. Every patient deserves time, attention, and expert care tailored to their goals. Whether you're an athlete, an active professional, or simply someone who wants to live and move more freely, Sergent Wellness is here to help you build strength, resilience, and confidence in your body.

Back squats not feeling great? No need to give up on squats all together. 🏋🏻

Often if you’re dealing with back, hip, or knee pain, back squats can exacerbate the issue.

WHY? | With a barbell, the load is distributed across your back, placing increased stress on the spine and can cause you to lean forward excessively and hip shift or butt wink as a compensation.

A regression we often recommend is a goblet squat - essentially a squat while holding a kettlebell or dumbbell in front of your chest. This changes the load distribution and is a safer option. Goblet squats may allow greater range of motion/squat depth compared to back squats AND encourage better posture with less spinal compression.
WIN WIN!

Stopping a movement all together is almost never the answer. Part of our work with patients is to help them find the best and safest options to continue to participate in their hobbies and exercise routines to their fullest potential. Small adjustments can make a big difference in helping you move better, feel stronger, and stay consistent. If you’re feeling stuck in your recovery or an injury is holding you back, let us help!

The “best” exercise is the one that works with your body, not against it. Our job is to help you keep living the life you want by finding better ways to do what you love and not just telling you to stop doing it.

The floors have been laid, the weights are racked, the mirrors are moved (for the dozenth time 😅), and the new Sergent Wellness gym is finally ready for patients!!!

We are so PUMPED to be settling into our proper gym space and are excited for the patients we get to support within its walls. And to make it even sweeter - this is the first gym space that is 100% Sergent Wellness. Over the years we’ve shared a gym with our neighboring business and prior to that we used gyms attached to the offices we occupied. Now we’re proud to show off a space that’s all our own!

If you’ve been in the office in the past 6 months you’ve been along with us through the changes, the construction noises, the obstacle course of equipment in the hallways, etc, and we are thankful for everyone being patient with us! Big changes take time and energy and this one was definitely worth waiting for.

Special thanks to Dr Julie’s dad .wiedemer and step-dad for all of their help through the process. Like any renovation / construction project, it comes with many stresses, decisions, changes, and unexpected road bumps; but having 2 dads on board gave her a sense of ease and security through every step. We are deeply grateful for their knowledge, patience, skills and many hours invested! We would not have been able to do it without them.

We love our new space and look forward to supporting our patients with this new office ➡️ gym flow. We’re always looking for ways to evolve and provide the best possible care. This space is going to hold a lot of hard work, big wins, meaningful moments, laughs, tears, kazoo sounds (IYKYK) and we can’t wait for every bit of it!

Come see it for yourself 🤍�Schedule with Dr. Julie today!

It’s hard to imagine physical therapy without the impact of women. They’ve been at the center of it from the very beginning.

During World War I, women stepped in as
“reconstruction aides,” helping injured soldiers regain strength and independence.

It was leaders like Mary McMillan, a physical therapist and the founding president of the American Physical Therapy Association, that helped shape what PT would become and laid the foundation for the entire profession. At a time when women had limited opportunities in healthcare, they stepped outside of the societal box and took risks to build something lasting, something meaningful, something that continues to change lives.

It’s not lost on me what a gift it is to carry that legacy forward, especially getting to care for patients in a way that aligns with how I truly believe healing should look.
Helping our patients move better, feel better, and get back to living the lives they love.

We continue to celebrate the milestones of women in history that have helped make this possible and and who paved the way, leading the change and shaping a future that we are proud to carry forward.

March is both Women’s History Month, and our anniversary month!

Did you know it has only been 38 years since a woman has been able to own her own business in the United States without a male co-signer? 

Dr Julie opened Sergent Wellness in 2014 and it has grown into a thriving, patient-centered practice thanks to vision, perseverance, and our incredible community. From day one, her goal has been simple: provide care that truly puts patients and their health first. 

Over the past 12 years, we have grown into a dedicated team offering advanced therapies like performance optimization, dry needling, postural restoration, PEMF, movement-based education, and pelvic floor support. We’ve built strong community connections, collaborated with amazing partners, and, most importantly, helped countless patients regain strength, confidence, and capability to fully participate in life.
 
Owning a small business comes roadblocks, detours, and moments of doubt, but the rewards of witnessing transformations, growing alongside an incredible team, and following a lifelong passion makes it all worth it.

To our patients: thank you for trusting us with your care, showing up, and allowing us to walk with you on your wellness journey.

To our community partners: thank you for believing in a higher standard of care and helping us serve Louisville in a meaningful way.

This month, as we celebrate women’s voices, leadership, and impact, we’re grateful for the journey, the lessons, and those who’ve walked with us.

It has been one year since Dr Julie began expanding her skillset and diving into the world of Postural Restoration!

Over the past year, she has embraced the challenge of learning this approach and continues to deepen her understanding through ongoing study and future courses.
Dr Julie is always looking for new ways to better serve her patients, and continuing her education is one of the ways she ensures the care at Sergent Wellness keeps evolving.

A special thank you to Dr Julie’s mentor, Danielle Phillips of for her guidance and support along the way.

We are excited to share more about the PRI approach and how it can support your movement and recovery in the coming months.

Postural Restoration, or PRI, is a specialized physical therapy approach developed by the Postural Restoration Institute, that treats the body as an asymmetrical system (because it is one!). 💡

It uses manual techniques and specific exercises to correct imbalanced postural patterns, chronic pain, and movement dysfunction. 🤚🏼

The human body is not symmetrical. The neurological, respiratory, circulatory, muscular, and vision systems are not the same on the left side of the body as they are on the right, and vice versa. They have different responsibilities, function, position, and demands on them. This system asymmetry is a good thing. 👣

The human body is balanced through the integration of system imbalances. The Postural Restoration approach helps your body move more efficiently by correcting imbalances in posture, breathing, and muscle use. 💪🏼

Your body already knows how to heal. Sometimes it just needs the right signal 📡

PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy) uses gentle magnetic energy to support your cells at a deeper level, helping them repair, regenerate, and calm inflammation more efficiently. 💪🏼

Patients often notice:
• faster pain relief
• improved sleep and energy
• reduced stress and muscle tension
• quicker recovery from injury
• better overall resilience and wellness

We use PEMF alongside physical therapy to help your body respond more fully to the work you’re already doing.

If you’re feeling stuck, run down, or just want to support your recovery and long-term health, PEMF may be a powerful addition to your care. ⚡️
