Stefani Hemphill

About

Stefani has been a physical therapist for over 20 years.  She began her career in New York City working at New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center in research and burn rehabilitation.  She moved to Los Angeles and continued her career in outpatient orthopedics.  She became a certified Pilates instructor in 2002.  Stefani specializes in Visceral Manipulation, Neuromenigeal Manipulation and CranioSacral Therapy. She is also trained in Neurac, Redcord Corrective Exercise, Gyrotonics, Dry Needling and Kinesiotaping.  She has spent much of her career working in the integrative physical therapy setting. 

Stefani loves the outdoors and hiking. In her years of practice, as well as through her own injuries, she has come to know that if a person is to recover from pain or an injury, it is impossible to focus attention on just the area of symptoms, it is crucial that she work with the whole person and to look for the root causes of dysfunction.

Stefani combines manual therapy techniques along with a traditional evidence based physical therapy philosophy when working with patients.  Her goal is to empower patients through education, providing them with things they can do on a daily basis to improve their physical wellness and quality of life.
