A holistic approach to movement and health

Transformative physical therapy services that go beyond pain relief.

Recovery Services

Starting with a thorough assessment, we relieve pain, restore mobility, and rebuild function with targeted treatments–so you can get back to doing what you love.

Therapeutic Evaluation

Every session starts with a thorough evaluation by a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy–not just once, but continuously throughout your care. Rather than focusing on a single body part, Midline takes a full-body approach to assess movement patterns, imbalances, and root causes of pain.

Dry Needling

Functional dry needling targets trigger points deep within the muscle to reduce pain, relieve tension, and improve movement. This popular, evidence-based technique uses fine needles to stimulate a twitch response, an involuntary contraction and release of muscle fibers that promotes natural healing. It’s highly effective for addressing both acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, and mobility limitations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a PT session last?

Each session is a full 60 minutes of focused, one-on-one care with your physical therapist. We’re never rushed and you’re never passed off.

How often will I need to come?

Frequency depends on your needs and goals. Most patients come 1–3 times per week, with twice weekly being the most common. We’ll decide together what works best after your evaluation.

How many sessions will I need?

That depends on your condition and goals, but most patients see results faster with this model because each session is fully dedicated to you. On average, treatment lasts 4 to 8 weeks. Post-op rehab typically requires a longer plan of care.

What should I expect in a session?

We’ll start with a full-body assessment to understand what’s going on. From there, sessions typically include hands-on techniques like dry needling, soft tissue work, cupping, or scraping–followed by personalized strength, mobility, and movement training based on your specific needs.

What is dry needling?

Dry needling is a technique that uses thin, sterile needles to release tight muscles, improve blood flow, and reduce pain. It’s especially effective for treating trigger points, tension, and chronic muscle issues. Many patients feel relief quickly and find it enhances the effects of movement-based therapy.

Here’s more information on dry-needling.

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable clothes you can move in, like gym clothes or activewear. You’re also free to come in your work attire, however if we’re working on your knees or ankles, bring or wear shorts. A private restroom is available if you need to change before your session.

Can I use my HSA or FSA?

Yes! Many patients use their HSA or FSA funds to cover physical therapy and performance training.

What happens after I finish PT?

You’ll have the option to transition into a wellness program for occasional tune-ups with no formal treatment plan required. For those wanting to keep progressing, Midline also offers weekly performance training sessions.

Do I need a referral?

Nope! Louisiana allows direct access, which means you can book care without a doctor’s referral. If we feel you’d benefit from additional evaluation or imaging, Midline will help coordinate with your physician. Of course, if you have a referral, we’ll gladly work with it–and we regularly coordinate care with local providers.

Check out the benefits of one-on-one treatment via direct access.

What conditions do you treat?

We treat a wide range of orthopedic and sports injuries, post-op recovery, balance and vestibular issues, and chronic pain. You can review a comprehensive list here. If you’re unsure whether Midline is a good fit for your issue, let’s talk through it.

Is physical therapy right for me even if I’m not in pain?

Yes! PT isn’t just for injury recovery–it’s also for performance, prevention, and overall movement health. Whether you’re training for something specific or just want to feel better in your body, PT can help.

Can I come in for a one-time evaluation or second opinion?

Yes. If you’re looking for expert insight on an injury, your progress, or whether you’re on the right path, a one-time evaluation is a great option. You’ll walk away with clarity and actionable next steps, even if you don’t continue regular sessions.

How do I get started?
