Bio
Stefanie Westring, DPT, PT, is a physical therapist with the Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children Pediatric Rehabilitation Program. She works with a broad range of pediatric conditions from neurodevelopmental to orthopedic impairments in children from birth to 21 years old. While she is trained to work with a variety of diagnoses, she specializes in pediatric headaches and cervical spine dysfunction.
Pediatric Headaches
Pediatric headaches are common in children and often triggered by tension, minor illness and more. However, some headaches may signal a more serious problem. Children who experience headaches that worsen rapidly and increase in frequency and severity may require medical attention.
Westring is part of a team of experts who work to diagnose and treat these debilitating headaches. As a physical therapist, she addresses serious tension in the head and neck and works with her patients to alleviate this tension and the severity of their headaches.
Cervical Spine Dysfunction
For children with cervical spine dysfunction, physical therapy may help them avoid surgery. With this less invasive approach, Westring uses targeted exercises to strengthen the spine and help children overcome spinal curvature and deformities by acclimating them to their posture and positioning.
Stefanie Westring's Training
Westring earned her doctorate degree in physical therapy from the University of Miami and undergraduate degree in health sciences from the University of Central Florida. She gained clinical experience working in a variety of settings, including adult acute care, adult orthopedics and outpatient pediatric rehabilitation. She also has participated in advanced training for the cervical spine as well as the application of biofeedback for chronic migraines.
About Stefanie Westring
In addition to caring for patients, Westring is a member of an Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children outpatient rehabilitation team collecting case studies to formulate a research study on the effectiveness of biofeedback technology coupled with physical therapy interventions in alleviating or lessening symptoms associated with chronic headaches.
She has advanced training and certification in cervical spine management and the application of biofeedback technology.

Not all providers accept the same insurance. If possible, check with your providers prior to your procedure or appointment to verify coverage.
Why do some Orlando Health physicians not have a patient experience rating?
The Patient Satisfaction Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions, shown above, from our nationally-recognized Press-Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question.
Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not necessarily reflect the views of Orlando Health.
Ratings may not be present for certain physicians of Orlando Health Physician Group and Orlando Health Physician Associates because:
- The physician has not yet met the minimum number of 30 patient satisfaction surveys to be eligible for display.
- They may be a researcher or type of provider that does not see patients.
- They may practice in a specialty or office that has not yet implemented the specified surveys used for these ratings.
