🌟 AAOMPT Member Spotlight: Stephanie Resendiz, PT, DPT, FAAOMPT 🌟
For Stephanie Resendiz, her journey toward fellowship began as a young DPT student inspired by the Fellows she learned from in the classroom and lab.
“I remember sitting in class and seeing how thoughtfully they performed tests and how deeply they understood the kinematics behind diagnosis and treatment. I saw the difference—and knew it would make a huge impact on my treatments and my ability to help others.”
That early inspiration set Stephanie on a lifelong path of growth and excellence. Each year, she continues to refine her clinical reasoning, expand her treatment strategies, and apply new evidence-based approaches to help those facing challenging or seemingly hopeless cases regain function and quality of life.
Stephanie lives in Downingtown, Pennsylvania, and practices at Elite Therapy Solutions in Chester County, where she also serves as a mentor and educator.
“Being an AAOMPT member has helped me surround myself with others who strive to be the best. That drive for continuous improvement has influenced every part of my life—from my own workouts and health habits to my hobbies like tennis and scuba diving, and even how I encourage growth in friends and family.”
In addition to her clinical work, Stephanie plays an integral role in education and research. She serves on the Education Board at Elite Therapy Solutions, where she contributes to course construction, lecturing, and mentoring within their Orthopedic Manual Therapy Residency and Fellowship programs. She also collaborates with Lebanon Valley College on research studying cervical manipulation versus mobilization and its effects on patients with anterior disc displacement and TMJD.
Stephanie frequently lectures to dentists on the benefits of physical therapy for TMJD and enjoys giving back to her alma mater, Thomas Jefferson University, by assisting in musculoskeletal labs.
