Beth Winkler is a licensed physical therapist, co-founder of Magnolia Physical Therapy, and creator of the H.E.A.L. Method for chronic pain. She has been helping people heal in the New Orleans area for over 20 years and has more than 30 years of experience as a physical therapist.
More importantly, Beth has lived through chronic pain herself. She spent 16 years battling chronic pain, and nothing truly helped until she discovered the powerful role the brain and nervous system play in the pain experience. Once she began applying the principles of neuroplasticity, emotional processing, and nervous system regulation, everything changed — and she finally healed. That experience now fuels her passion for helping others understand that they, too, have the ability to heal.
Beth is currently developing courses for people suffering from chronic pain, as well as teaching her method to physical therapists working in outpatient clinics. She also teaches an adjunct course at LSU School of Physical Therapy and is assisting in the development of the Neuroplastic Pain curriculum at Franciscan University in Baton Rouge. She believes the healthcare system must change the way it approaches musculoskeletal issues by including the role of the central nervous system — and that change begins with education our practitioners.
