About Dr. Stephanie Long:

Dr. Stefanie Long received her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Hardin Simmons University and trained in her post-doctorate studies in pelvic health through the American Physical Therapy Association.

"I became passionate about women’s health therapy in 2011 after being treated as a patient following the birth of my first child. I struggled with incontinence and pelvic pain and, after just a few visits, my symptoms began to lessen. This led me to pursue certification in this area and go on to help women with similar concerns! I’ve seen hundreds of clients through the same processes!

I have been a practicing physical therapist for over 15 years. I have treated patients in pelvic health, general orthopedic, post-operative conditions, sports injury rehab, and also pediatric patients with both neurological or orthopedic conditions and incontinence/bed-wetting issues.

I have 3 kids and am married to a wonderful husband who has helped me make this dream possible. On the weekends, I play taxi to each of my 3 kids and love to watch them play soccer, dance, play French horn and speed cube."
