Jennifer Stone graduated from Texas State University at the top of her class in 2009. Since then, she has completed her orthopedic residency through Evidence in Motion and her pelvic floor training through Herman and Wallace. Jennifer practices in an outpatient orthopedic setting, where approximately 60% of her caseload is made up of what has traditionally been called "women's health" patients. Jennifer passionately believes that every physical therapist has a responsibility to educate themselves about the pelvic floor and to understand this integral part of the body, regardless of who their target demographic may be. By contrast, the importance of the pelvic floor as part of a complete structure cannot, in her mind, be overestimated, and she is committed to teaching in a way that places the pelvic floor muscles into the body as a whole.She is committed to making the pelvic floor accessible to the everyday physical therapist and placing tools for intervention and inclusion into every therapist's tool box. Her passion for teaching and commitment to improving the way this part of the body is cared for by all physical therapists is the driving force behind the development of the EIM pelvic floor certification. Outside of the physical therapy world, Jennifer enjoys spending time with family, enjoying the great outdoors in her home of Columbia, Missouri, and pursuing her hobbies of babywearing, knitting, and playing board games.
