Welcome to the

Your Haven for Health in Stone Harbor, NJ

What Wellness Means to Us.. 

​Alongside of Pilates instruction and rehabilitation, our team supplies the island with a home for Physical Therapy and Chiropractic care.  

 

Both doctors prioritize soft tissue therapies and strengthening techniques to align the body. In addition to modalities like cupping, dry-needling, taping, and manipulation, they assess the full picture of you!

 

We believe that your therapies should have as much depth as you do; giving you access to areas of yourself beyond the surface of muscles and bones.
