Frequently Asked Questions
-
Concierge physical therapy is a personalized, one-on-one approach to care that allows you to work directly with your physical therapist for the entire session. At Local Point PT & Wellness, every appointment is with Dr. Christie Kornegay, PT, DPT—no aides, no assistants, and no crowded clinic.
Because we do not bill insurance, treatment is based on what you need rather than what insurance allows. This means longer appointments, individualized treatment plans, hands-on care, and more time for education and exercise.

At Local Point PT & Wellness, you'll always work directly with Dr. Christie Kornegay, a Doctor of Physical Therapy with more than 15 years of orthopedic experience.
Unlike many traditional clinics, we never use technicians or assistants to deliver your care. Every session is one-on-one and customized to your goals.
Our focus is not only helping you recover from pain or injury but also improving strength, movement quality, and long-term health so you can stay active and prevent future problems.
Whether you're recovering from surgery, dealing with chronic pain, preparing for a race, returning after pregnancy, or simply wanting to move better, we create a plan that fits your lifestyle—not an insurance company's timeline.

At Local Point Concierge PT & Wellness, your program is completely personalized and may include:
A progressive strength training program to preserve lean muscle mass
Mobility exercises to improve flexibility and reduce stiffness
Balance and stability training to reduce fall risk
Core strengthening to support your spine and improve posture
Functional movement training for everyday activities
Joint-friendly exercise recommendations based on your current fitness level
Guidance on safely returning to the gym or recreational activities
Strategies to reduce aches, pains, and injury risk during weight loss
Dr. Christie Kornegay has personally experienced bariatric surgery and understands the unique physical and emotional challenges that come with significant weight loss. She combines evidence-based physical therapy with firsthand insight to help you move better, stay strong, and build healthy habits that last long after the weight loss phase.

Client Reviews
“Christie provides me a relief that is immeasurable; she has resolved years of compounded muscle tension from both TMJ and desk-job pains. After a session with her, my shoulders drop a remarkable amount and my jaw muscles feel like they're floating. I cannot recommend Christie enough!!”
— Hunter J.Just over a year ago I was suddenly hit with what my doctor diagnosed as stiff shoulder syndrome. After seeing an MD and a steroid injection I was advised to seek physical therapy.
Dr. Kornegay was able to very quickly assess the situation and offer dry needling and a few simple exercises that made all the difference in my recovery.
She was thorough but efficient, compassionate, and gave me exactly what I needed to get me back to normal! I highly recommend her!
— Heidi H. “Christie is awesome! After 2 years of recurring pain and few answers, I made an appt with Local Point and she’s already helped me get some answers and build a strategy toward healing. She’s very thorough and detail-oriented. It feels great to be noticing a real difference!”
