Stephanie graduated from Ithaca College's physical therapy program in 2007 and moved to Chicago to pursue a career in orthopedics. Since then, she has worked in the Chicagoland area, focusing on dance medicine, spine rehabilitation, and general orthopedics.
Stephanie completed her certification in McKenzie Method in 2013. One of only a few McKenzie-credentialed therapists on the Far North Side, she is happy to provide a high level of care to her patients and help them recover from spinal injuries by directing their rehab and helping them take control of their own recovery. Having grown up a dancer and completed a dance minor in college, Stephanie continues to hold on to her love of dance and enjoys helping other dancers address their injuries. She has worked with professional companies around Chicago, and particularly enjoys assisting and educating young dancers to help them prevent injuries. Stephanie has also completed certifications in functional dry needling and office ergonomics.
Stephanie enjoys traveling, gardening, cooking, volunteering, and spending time with her husband and dogs.
