About

I'm Christine Stephenson, PT, DPT. I am a pediatric PT who has been working with kids with urinary and fecal incontinence and chronic bladder infections since 2012. Over the years, I've learned that chronic constipation is the underlying factor in almost all bowel and bladder issues, and that families oftentimes feel helpless in treating their child's condition. 

Taking care of a child with chronic constipation, and the incontinence issues that often come with it, can be an incredibly challenging task. Your doctor says to take medicine. Other well-meaning adults imply that it's just your child's bad behavior. The Internet tells you it's all about diet and exercise. But none of these experts provides a comprehensive plan for making your child feel better. That's where I come in. 

My book and the resources on this site will give you a step-by-step approach to addressing all of the causes of constipation in your child. You'll learn what you can do now, what you should do later, and when you should seek more help. Importantly, if you need to seek more help, you'll have a better idea of which professional will help your child the most.
