About Magnolia Physical Therapy
Most clinics manage your symptoms and call it a plan. We built this place to end them: one-on-one with a licensed physical therapist, hands on, the same one every visit.
Our Story
Beth Winkler, PT, Co-Founder and CEO
Beth Winkler and Lisa Taglauer spent years describing a clinic that didn’t exist yet. At least 30 minutes of real, personal manual therapy. A gym stocked with good equipment. Therapists good enough that doctors would refer patients because of the outcomes. They opened the doors in July 2005.
About two months later, Hurricane Katrina and the levee failures hit New Orleans. Like the city they grew up in and love, Beth and Lisa fought back. They took one small, struggling room and built it into three clinics: Marigny, the Westbank, and Elmwood. Twenty-one years on, still independent, still women-owned.
None of that is why you’re here. You’re here because something hurts and nobody has told you why. Twenty-one years of rebuilding taught them exactly what that takes: one therapist who knows your name, owns your plan, and works with you instead of on you. Waiting has never made the answer shorter. The people who do best here are the ones who fix things: their houses, their teams, their families. This is where they finally fix the thing they’ve been putting off: themselves.
“We are open because we care.”
What We Believe
Your plan and your hands-on time stay with your licensed physical therapist, every visit. Our techs and massage therapists support that work. They never replace it.
You’ve probably chased the pain itself before and never found why it started. We find the why, then the ache stops coming back.
You shouldn’t need a punch card. Every plan comes with a graduation date, so you always know how close you are.
Your job, your body, your goals: that’s what your plan is built around, never pulled from a generic sheet.
