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. After 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.

Happy World Health Day!

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. 💪🏼

🌟 Curious about how PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) works and why so many people talk about it for pain relief and recovery?

PEMF isn’t magic. It’s science-based stimulation of your body’s cells and tissues. PEMF uses low-frequency electromagnetic pulses to gently interact with cells. These pulses help improve cellular signaling, support natural repair pathways, and may interrupt pro-inflammatory processes that contribute to pain and stiffness. 🧠🔬

For knees (especially with arthritis or inflammation), clinical research shows that PEMF can:
✨ reduce pain levels more than placebo in multiple randomized trials
✨ improve physical function and joint mobility when applied regularly
✨ support anti-inflammatory cellular activity that may help protect cartilage and tissue over time.

This means PEMF supports your body’s natural healing mechanisms and is a powerful tool alongside physical therapy and movement.

If your knee pain feels stubborn, PEMF may offer non-invasive, medication-free support that helps you move more comfortably and recover more consistently. 💪🦵

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. ⚡️

Today we celebrate 4 years of Hayley with Sergent Wellness!

Let me tell you the story of how Hayley got here…

Some of you know she moved to Louisville 5 years ago from her hometown in Lincoln, Nebraska. She was finding her place in a new city and looking to move jobs. One fall day in September she happened to open a Tops magazine and landed on my feature 💫 She sent me an email cold - sharing her past work experience in both chiropractic and physical therapy practices and asking if I needed help. My jaw quite literally dropped reading her message. The timing of it truly couldn’t have been better as I was weeks away from starting the process of hiring. Thank you universe 🙏

During Hayley’s time here, we’ve improved the many processes that exist in keeping day to day operations smooth. We’ve added services, grown our reach on social media, and continued to create meaningful relationships with our patients and community partners. Having a small business with a small team means a lot rides on every day and every move. We’ve experienced many seasons together - she’s been a guiding light through them all - bringing clarity, organization, and action to my ideas and ever growing list of to-dos. Not to mention the woman can fix just about anything and her green thumb keeps our plant kingdom thriving. 🪴

Hayley is the face you see when you come through our doors. She’s welcoming and warm to all and her official title of operations manager hardly defines her role here at Sergent Wellness and in my life. Help me in celebrating all that is Hayley and cheers to another year! 🥂

Redefining Rehab and Performance

Julie Sergent, PT, DPT is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and specializes in disorders of muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Dr. Sergent takes a special interest in pain management through use of manual therapy techniques to normalize joint motion and muscle tissue. Even those with chronic and often times debilitating diagnoses such as spinal stenosis, disc bulges/herniations, & ligamentous instability, can achieve relief and remain physically active. 1:1 treatment sessions focus on decreasing active trigger points and working through specific strength imbalances. Dr. Sergent prescribes individualized exercise and recovery programs and provides adequate guidance on exercise modification to keep you moving. In most cases, patients may continue with their desired exercise or training programs with the addition of corrective exercises and soft tissue management strategies. Dr. Sergent guides patients throughout their recovery and equips them to recognize differences in pain so they may take the proper steps next time an injury strikes. Once the initial complaint is resolved, Dr. Sergent encourages wellness or routine visits (usually every 4-6 wks) to maintain good soft tissue health and keep you performing at your maximum potential. Dr. Sergent was born and raised in Louisville, KY. She earned her Bachelor of Health Sciences at Bellarmine University in 2006 and her Doctorate of Physical Therapy 2008. She holds the following certifications and is currently working towards her manual therapy certification through St. Augustine University. Certifications: -Level I & II Functional Dry Needling -Selective Functional Movement Assessment -Functional Movement Screen -Kinesiotape Certified Practicioner -Accommodations from the U.S. Military for her service to soldiers at Ft. Knox, KY.
