I am a physical therapist specializing in chronic headaches and neck pain. I enjoy treating Headaches, Neck pain, and any musculoskeletal condition.
I like working at Simply Physio because of the great team environment.
When I’m not working, I enjoy restoring old cars, the Casino, and being with my dog Gabi.
Stephen is truly the headache whisperer. He knows exactly what spots to focus on to bring you much needed relief. Having had a cervical spinal fusion, he really helps with my neck which is the source of my cervicogenic migraines. When I’ve had a few extra issues along the way, he’ll even squeeze me in on his lunch break. He and the office staff are top notch!
Over the past 6-8 months I have seen drastic improvement when it comes to my migraines, sleep, and general quality of life. The staff is some of the kindest, most caring and understanding individuals I’ve met.
I’ve used Stephen for all my physical therapy needs. He never disappoints. Go see him and you can thank me later
