- Misti G.
Stella’s technique is not cookie cutter. There are literally 5 physical therapists in the state of NJ who specialize in Functional Manual Therapy; Stella is one. I had hurt my lower back and after just one visit with her, I felt better immediately. She mindfully takes the time to address, not just the injury/issue, she goes beyond and finds the root. Stella is so in-tune, she can pick up past injuries without even being told; therefore, alleviating the old “problem” and resolving any residual and/or current pain. I have gone to regular physical therapists for years and until setting foot in a Functional Manual Therapist’s office, I can truly say that their care supersedes the basic physical therapy that is in place in our healthcare system today. Very skilled and in-depth, I highly recommend working with Stella.

“If there were a ten-star rating, I would give it to PT Dimitrakakis. She worked continuously with excellent results, on my jaw and neck because of my TMJ issues. She was very dedicated on my wellbeing and me getting on the road to recovery…Love Her!!”
- Megan Y.
“Working with Stella is the best decision I’ve made post-partum. I felt my upper and lower body were disconnected and suffered pains in various parts of my body after giving birth and breastfeeding for two months. I went for chiro after my first baby but wanted something more comprehensive this time. I stumbled upon Stella’s practice in a mom forum. She helped me understand my issues and developed therapies, a total of seven sessions, including soft tissue relaxation and exercises to help me become stronger and more mobile. It’s a liberating experience and absolutely worth it. Stella is knowledgeable, professional, and caring. I love her as a healer and friend.”
