I’m a dedicated physical therapist who brings to Well in Montclair a wealth of knowledge and experience. A proud Jersey City native, I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Dominican University, where I developed a passion for helping individuals regain their strength and mobility.

With extensive experience both domestically and internationally, I have worked as a physical therapist for professional and semi-professional rugby teams, enhancing athletic performance and facilitating recovery. My expertise has also made me a sought-after therapist for celebrities and influencers in Los Angeles, as well as partners at Goldman Sachs in the New York area, where I focused on tailored rehabilitation and wellness strategies.

I hold certifications in Vestibular and Concussion Management and Dry Needling, equipping me with specialized skills to address a range of conditions. My holistic approach prioritizes each patient’s unique needs, ensuring they receive the highest standard of care. I particularly enjoy working with highly motivated and dedicated individuals who are eager to get back to what they love doing.

Outside of the clinic, I am an avid outdoor enthusiast. I enjoy snowboarding, skiing, tennis, golf, and running. A fan of adventure, I love camping and exploring new places on road trips. My commitment to wellness extends beyond my profession, as I embody a healthy, active lifestyle that hopefully inspires my patients.

Whether you’re recovering from an injury, or seeking to enhance your physical performance, I will be here to support you on your journey to optimal health.

I am a Licensed Acupuncturist and Massage Therapist. My undergraduate degree is in Psychology with a minor in Physical Therapy. These credentials plus my experience gives me a unique ability to use touch to find and address people’s pain effectively. A psychological and orthopedic approach through Chinese Medicine treatment adds a profound effect to my treatments.

With my background in Psychology, Massage Therapy and Traditional Chinese Medicine, I am best suited to treat the body and mind as a whole. Being able to address the psychosomatic component to most conditions truly allows my patients to reach optimal results with their treatment. Feeling better both physically and emotionally, is key. So think of acupuncture for management of pain, stress, anxiety, grief, insomnia, depression, digestive issues, immune system, male and female fertility, sexual function and much more.

Traditional Chinese Medicine can help with many conditions and any patient that I see has an opportunity to make their life better and more manageable. The whole family benefits when each individual feels their best.

My goal is to have my patients feel safe, comfortable, relaxed, and in control while working with me. I genuinely care about each patient and how best to make their lives happier and healthier.

My patient should expect professionalism, care, thoroughness, honesty, and results when working with me. A pleasant experience is a must.

I’m Magin Shumate, Practice Manager at Well In Montclair. I’ve spent over half of my life volunteering in Ghana, tutoring and doing outreach programs in local communities. While there, I was able to spend a year working in a healthcare facility. It was challenging, but satisfying, and where I developed a desire to be in the healthcare system. I am not only very much a people person, but also enjoy the technical side of the business. After managerial training I realized that both of these skills can be used in my position at Well in Montclair.

As one of the trained technicians for the aesthetic side of our practice, I also work with clients during the Emsella or Emsculpt therapies.

I want to make sure that every client that comes to our facility has the best care available and the smoothest scheduling and insurance interactions.

As the founding member of Well In Montclair, I wish for the competent care of physical and emotional issues for all members of my community. I want a system of integrative services to enable our members the ability to be heard “well” in all areas of healthcare.

As a team, our mission is to work with members of our wellness community to find ways to heal from issues related to physical impairment, stressor and restrictions that impair them in living optimally. Our goal is to improve healing outcomes; find preventative methods to maintain longevity; enhance the mood of each member; improve overall coping mechanisms, make solid and meaningful connections to others and enhance and improve all physical and connected psychosomatic issues.

I have been a physical therapist for almost 30 years. My early years of patient care were a mixture of neurologic, AIDS/HIV homecare and orthopedic outpatient post-surgical and trauma rehabilitation. I have treated most conditions related to pain – acute and chronic, movement dysfunction and post-surgical issues.

My approach has always been working not just the presenting physical issue, but looking past this to see what other structures may be implicated. Are there past issues, incidents or emotional states that may create roadblocks in the healing process? How can we best support the individual in our journey together? This could be a patient presenting with pain related to a post-surgical orthopedic condition or a postpartum mother with pain related to the delivery of her child. It is always imperative to gather all of the relevant and necessary information to assist the individual in the healing process

I am a women’s health and pelvic floor physical therapist and love working with women of all ages. This is a logical extension of orthopedic care, addressing dysfunction related to all of women’s life phases - the initiation of menses, pregnancy (if one occurs) and menopause. I am able to assess all conditions and determine the type of intervention necessary, providing internal or external manual therapy, education and prescriptive exercise.

I am also a trained life coach here at Well In Montclair. Coaching is a particular passion of mine, as it is a collaborative way to help someone to explore a situation in-depth; solve a problem; navigate communication issues in a relationship positively or gain insight and clarity about current fixed patterns of behavior. We delve in together to redefine how or why an individual is having difficulties resolving a problem. Issues relating to health questions, stress management, life transition and adjustment, problems in relationship with our children and parenting and communication/partnering disharmony can be issues that we work on in our coaching session.

Collectively, I hope to aid our members in feeling better physically, emotionally and even aesthetically. My intention is to create a space for healing for all ages, genders, and lifestyles. I am proud of our team, their intention and heart. They have a strong commitment to serving all of the members of the Well In Montclair community.
