About Soma Vita Physio & Wellness – Our Story

• Soma Vita Physio & Wellness was founded in 2022, with a mission to help active adults, in the Watchung area get back to the activities they enjoy without surgery, unnecessary time off, or relying on pain medication. Majority of our patient population are active individuals who are having some type of pain or discomfort and are motivated to get back to exercising pain-free. Once patients are pain-free and back to exercising pain-free we also offer a continuation program that services to help them remain strong and pain-free in a safe and welcoming environment.
• Soma Vita Physio & Wellness is an out-of-network physical therapy clinic that specializes in Functional Manual Therapy. By being out-of-network we can treat the patient as a whole and provide more optimal care for our patients. That means we work for the patient and not the insurance companies. We are committed to treating the root cause of pain and not just the symptoms.
• It is very important to us to provide our staff with a lifestyle they are happy to have. One in which they don’t feel overworked, drowning in paperwork, or rushed for treatment time with their clients so they can simply focus on results.
• Life is short... don’t sacrifice your happiness by settling for a job that does not inspire you or encourage and support your growth.

What is so unique about this position? You get to...

• See a reasonable caseload of up to 6-7 clients per day, so that you go home feeling energized and happy about the work you did, instead of mentally or physically drained.
• Focus on your client – and spend one hour with them one-on-one uninterrupted. No double bookings – ever.
• Ability to work with active adults and some chronic/complicated cases who are extremely motivated to get back to moving pain free.
• Easy documentation: We are 100% out of network which means we do not have to cater to insurance companies with elaborate documentation standards.
• Unlimited earning potential and ability to grow within the company.
• You get to treat the patient on a full spectrum, from injury rehab to fitness/wellness.
• You get to wear comfortable, professional “athleisure” wear to work.
• Spend your downtime researching a case when you need to, or communicating directly with your clients when they have questions - instead of filling out insurance authorizations or paperwork.
• Look forward to coming to work every day - because you actually get to practice what you went to school for...physical therapy!
• Have one-on-one mentorship and training every week - no matter your experience or skill level - to practice skills and go over cases.
• Most importantly... you get to use your talents and passion (you know, the thing that made you want to become a PT to begin with) to make a REAL difference in people's lives.

Who should apply for this job:

• Someone who is truly passionate about physical therapy and wants to make a real transformation in people's lives.
• Someone who is looking to work in an environment that is NOT a traditional outpatient clinic - and that is fun and feels like a family.
• Someone who wants to learn and be mentored - we can spend dedicated time every week just to discuss tough cases --> that means newer grads and experienced clinicians, please apply! You'll learn everything you need to become a world-class therapist.
• Someone who wants a small clinic feel but operates with big business ideas! This job comes with benefits and plenty of opportunity for continuing education - just without the burn-out and corporate red-tape.
• Someone who is flexible and open to change as our practice continues to grow and evolve.
• Someone who wants to use a blend of holistic healing and injury prevention to deliver the highest level of results to our clients.
• Has taken the foundational classes or plans to take from the Institute of Physical Arts, or Selective Functional Movement Screen (SFMA)/Functional Movement Screen (FMS)

If the position and our values resonate with you and you want to be part of a growing practice offering something unique to the healthcare system, please send a cover letter and resume.
