Dr. Melissa Maglaque is a Doctor of Physical Therapy who is passionate about injury prevention and overall wellness through the use of mindful movement.
Dr. Maglaque graduated with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy and BS in Exercise Science from Rutgers University. She is a certified Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT), Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS), and Pilates Instructor.
She founded MAG Physical Therapy, Pilates & Wellness in 2018 because she wanted to provide quality one-on-one time with her clients and assist them in finding the root cause of their pain and limitations.
Dr. Maglaque grew up as an athlete and recovered from knee surgery at a young age, which immediately sparked her interest in physical therapy and began her career in injury rehabilitation and prevention.
She has 15+ years of experience treating a diverse population of clients, ranging from those who’ve undergone surgery or are recovering from injury to elite and Olympic-level athletes.
Before moving to Westfield, New Jersey, Dr. Maglaque lived in San Francisco for nearly a decade, where she found Pilates to be the perfect complement to musculoskeletal healing and recovery.
By blending Physical Therapy, functional exercise, and Pilates-based principles, she ensures that her clients reach their goals with safe and manageable plans. Dr. Maglaque enjoys continually learning new treatment methods and incorporating evidence-based interventions into her practice, allowing her to help clients achieve optimal health and wellness.
Clients often seek treatment from Dr. Maglaque when they have failed to improve with more traditional approaches.
