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’m a Licensed Acupuncturist with over a decade of massage therapy experience with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a minor in physical therapy. My experience allows me to use both touch and intuition to find the true source of pain — physical or emotional — and help people feel like themselves again.

My treatments combine the psychological, orthopedic, and energetic aspects of healing through Traditional Chinese Medicine. This integrative approach allows for deep, lasting results — not just symptom relief, but full-body balance.

With a foundation in Psychology, Massage Therapy, and Chinese Medicine, I treat the body and mind as one system. Many physical issues carry an emotional component and acknowledging that connection helps my patients heal more completely.

You can think of acupuncture as support for…… pain, stress, anxiety, grief, insomnia, depression, digestive issues, immune support, fertility, hormonal balance, and sexual wellness.

I sincerely believe that the entire family benefits when one member feels better.

My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and cared for. Sessions are calm, collaborative, and deeply restorative. I want every patient to walk out feeling lighter, grounded, and empowered in their own healing process.

When you work with me, expect professionalism, compassion, honesty, and results. Healing should feel good — and it’s my mission to make every visit a pleasant, healing experience from start to finish.

I’m Magin Shumate, Practice Manager at Well In Montclair. I spent over half of my life volunteering in Ghana, tutoring and doing outreach programs in local communities. While there, I spent a year working in a healthcare facility. It was challenging, but satisfying, and where I developed a desire to work in a healing environment. My list of managerial duties includes front desk operations, staff supervision and training, insurance coverage, client satisfaction and overseeing facilities.

I am also one of the trained technicians for the aesthetic side of our practice, working with clients on the Emsella chair and administering Emsculpt therapies.

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

Cathy Stephenson, BA, MS, BS Allied Health (PT), MSW, MSCAc, Certified Life Coach.

As the founding member of Well In Montclair, my mission is to provide truly integrative care for every individual, couple, and family in our community. I bring together training in physical therapy, social work, Five Element acupuncture, and life coaching - focusing on holistic solutions for both physical and emotional concerns. My wish is for every community member to be “HEARD” and heard “WELL” so healing can be stable and sustainable.

With nearly 30 years of experience, my background spans neurologic rehabilitation, AIDS/HIV home care, orthopedic trauma, and post surgical recovery for complex pain and movement challenges. I approach care by looking beyond symptoms, and consider any past experiences and underlying patterns (physical, behavioral, or relational) that may influence each person’s healing process.

I have particular expertise in women’s health, including cancer and mastectomy recovery, pre/postnatal transitions and perimenopausal wellness. While pelvic floor therapy expertise is available from another specialist in the clinic, I do support women through all life stages with tailored assessment, education and integrative resources. My care for men, women and adolescents includes both orthopedic and neurological cases and I welcome clients with unresolved or multifaceted health needs.

Collaboration is at the heart of our practice. This might include working with your wider care team, life transition issues, stress factors, or supporting you in your relationships and families. The goal is to build solutions that enhance resilience, uplift mood and provide lasting wellbeing.

It was always my intention to build a welcoming safe, secure space for all who come to us. I am endlessly proud to lead a team dedicated to integrative care, prevention, meaningful warm connection, and the best health for each client.
