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.

“I started seeing Dr. Stella in April ’23. I have struggled with TMJD, head and neck pain for 20+ years. I would see PTs, some specializing in TMJD, and would get relief but eventually the pain would come back.
Dr. Stella is the first PT I have seen that has ever focused on the root of the problem. She knows more about TMJD than my dentist does! My condition is chronic so I don’t expect to be 100% symptom free. But I can say I have less frequent and less severe flares while in maintenance phase (once ev. 4-6 weeks) with Dr. Stella vs. results I’ve achieved going to traditional PT 3 times a week. Dr. Stella also has an amazing wealth of knowledge & techniques. She has used traditional exercise/strengthening based PT along with specialized hands-on manipulation/massage. I am always amazed with how much relief I get from some of the non-traditional techniques. She is also generous with her knowledge and techniques, teaching me tools I can use at home for pain relief between visits. Dr. Stella is down to earth, friendly and caring. I am grateful for finding her on my journey to feeling better.”

“I was dealing with a hip injury that I had for 4 months without any improvement in my symptoms. I was frustrated until I visited Soma Vita Physio & Wellness.
They listened to my story, quickly realized the issues I was dealing with, and created a plan to help me.
After the first session, I already felt so much better, and I could really see the possibilities for healing my injury and improving the injured area.
The therapist’s expertise and understanding of how to properly heal my injury has made a world of difference for me. I am so thankful.
I have a plan and hope that I will be able to heal. If you are serious about physical therapy, you can be confident that you will have success and satisfaction visiting Soma Vita Physio & Wellness.”
