My Physio For Life - physical therapy & wellness center

Fantastic experience: very caring and helpful

Fantastic experience: I don’t believe there is another PT organization that could beat the comprehensive hands-on treatment, body knowledge and awareness nor professionalism that is shown to every client that walks in the door.

Fantastic experience: Great facility, great doctors, and great service.

Fantastic experience: My son is playing basketball pain free Thank you Doc Will! We were afraid that his final year in high school he was not going to be able to play because of his back injury. Amazing watching him play like he used to! After 10 seccions and you motivating him to put in the work at home he's back! And he looked forward to each section with you. Thank you !!

Fantastic experience: Everyone is so welcoming and they seriously know what they are doing. One laser session and my tear in my hamstring already starts to feel better. I’m putting off surgery to work with them to heal me.

Fantastic experience: Such a great place for rehab. If you can see Dr. Bynn , she is great at her job. Listens to your needs and addresses all of your concerns. I am telling everyone about this place. Another plus is the whole staff there is friendly. Great energy at that office. Thank you Dr.Brynn, I havent felt this good in a long time.

Fantastic experience: Drs Ilana and Will were the epitome of caring professionals. Their knowledge and skills reduced the reasons I went to their clinic. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who suffers from body aliments or motor limitations.

Fantastic experience: Exceptional and amazing doesn’t begin to describe My Physio. Walking in, I was always greeted with a smile. Everyone is very personable, especially Brynn. She was a phenomenal physical therapist and always ensured I felt comfortable and had the tools I needed to rehabilitate. Highly recommend this physical therapy office.

Fantastic experience: I have recently began seeing Dr. Ilana and find her to be the most knowledgeable PT I have worked with. All who work in her office and friendly. I highly recommend her.

Fantastic experience: I have tried physical therapy in the past but never saw any improvement but for the first time in 8 years, I finally see progress thanks to My Physio for Life. Dr. Brynn is extremely knowledgeable and dedicated to helping me achieve my recovery goals. She is very patient and explains everything in a way that makes sense. The clinic is clean and well-organized, and the staff is always friendly and supportive. I feel confident that I'm in good hands and look forward to continuing my progress with their help.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ilana is an extraordinary physical therapist. She has helped me recover from an extensive back surgery. Her valuable and specific treatments addressing my personal injury have been phenomenal. In fact, more effective than any past physical therapy I have received over the years. With her care and expertise I’ve been able to move forward with balance, strength and movement. The environment at My Physio for Life clinic welcomes everyone with a warm and friendly feeling. Her variety of exercises, focus on goals, innovation and hands on approach makes me confident in recommending Dr.Ilana to help anyone heal from an injury.

Fantastic experience: My Physio For Life impressive because it is a modern facility with state of the art equipment and most important, a wonderful staff. My therapist , Dr. Brynn has helped me to regain function and strength in my knee after surgery. She is intelligent , skillful, intuitive and patient. I appreciate the continuity of having her as my sole therapist. Other P.T. facilities have therapy split between a therapist and an aide. Having been to other facilities for treatment, Physio has surpassed my expectations.

Fantastic experience: I was visiting San Diego and injured my shoulder one day. I called My Physio and Dr. Ilana was very empathetic and took my right in. She worked with me during the duration of my visit. I’m so grateful to her! Her practice is professional, she has deep knowledge - I learned a lot from her - and her methods, treatment, and exercises were very effective. If I lived in the area I would definitely continue with this practice! Highly highly recommend My Physio for Life.

Fantastic experience: Dr Ilana is wonderful! She figures out what is the root problem and uses a wide range of exercises and techniques to address my issues.

Fantastic experience: This place is stellar on many levels. I happily drive 45 minutes to have access to Ilana's expertise and cutting edge technology. She is able to provide objective data about my strength bilaterally to set up an individual regimen to show my areas to focus on, and follow my progress. Its a great way to stay motivated in between sessions. Plus the atmosphere is vibrant, clean and spacious.

Fantastic experience: I am so impressed with Physio for life. I suffered from sciatic pain for years and in 8 weeks I am completely pain free!! AMAZING! Every time I show up for an appointment they are ready for me and always full of great new exercises. I highly recommend them! Nancy Ruggles

Fantastic experience: I am incredibly grateful for the care I’ve received from my physical therapist, Dr. Illana. She is an expert who tailors her approach to meet my specific needs and demonstrates a genuine passion for health and wellness. Dr. Illana creates a safe, encouraging, and kind atmosphere, and she values input from other skilled physical therapists, especially Dr. Will, who is also very knowledgeable. Their collaborative approach and use of various techniques have been instrumental in my recovery. Thanks again to everyone at My Physio For Life.

Fantastic experience: Friendly and talented staff. I was treated for a knee injury which they not only improved but taught me how to strengthen the injured area. Nice facility with state of the art equipment and techniques. If you’re in pain, check in with My Physio so they can treat and inform you regarding your injury.

Fantastic experience: great personal care, significant results after a few visits. couldn't be better!

Fantastic experience: Really impressed with my Physical therapist Dr. Jonathan Cabral. Very knowledgeable and personable.

Fantastic experience: Feeling better after every session with Dr. Ilana. My shoulder pain is already far less after only three PT sessions. Heartfelt thanks!

Fantastic experience: My rehabilitation care for my reverse shoulder replacement was excellent. Doctors Will and Ilana helped me achieve my full range of motion and strengthening so I could return to golf after 3 months of progressively challenging rehab exercises. This is the third time I’ve used My Physio for Life and I highly recommend ;them for any physical rehab issue, as they really do get to know you so they can custom tailor your rehab program to your needs.

Fantastic experience: Such a great team here. Can’t wait to get more appointments.

Fantastic experience: I cannot speak highly enough of My Physio For Life! Their exceptional care and expertise not only helped me recover from a knee injury but also ensured I could walk down the aisle pain-free on my wedding day. From the welcoming atmosphere to the personalized treatment plan tailored to my needs, every aspect of my experience at My Physio For Life was outstanding. The therapists' dedication and professionalism were evident in every session, and the state-of-the-art facilities contributed to my swift recovery. Thanks to their commitment to excellence, I achieved remarkable progress in a short period. If you're seeking top-notch physical therapy services Drs Will and Ilana got you covered! They are the gold standard! Thank you for helping me heal and allowing me to cherish every moment of my wedding day!

Fantastic experience: My Physio for Life has been amazing in helping me prepare for my first marathon. Dr. Brynn is helping me focus on strengthening muscles with small exercises I can fit in with my training schedule. The therapists are super professional and eager to tailor treatments to your individual needs and goals. Also, don't miss out on trying the red light laser therapy here!

Fantastic experience: First: as a veteran they worked with the VA relentlessly to get my approval focusing on my quality of life. Once approved Dr Ilana was able to adapt to the different body complications. She spent time explaining the plan of treatment and then changing based on me injuring myself. The most beneficial part of treatment was the laser therapy and the traction. Sancar the front desk admin very professional helped with the auth process and worked with my schedule.

Fantastic experience: The physical therapists here are knowledgeable and kind, offering personalized care for every client that comes through the door. They work MAGIC with their laser therapy, providing noticeable improvements in pain management and recovery even after the first session. I can't recommend them enough if you're in need of rehabilitation or just general wellness support!

Fantastic experience: have seen Dr Ilana twice now for chronic issues related to a Bakers Cyst I've had for several years behind my left knee. I have been treated by two other PTs for this, neither of which felt there was much to be done aside from strengthening muscles and keeping them limber. Enter Dr Ilana. She has convinced me that with a series of laser treatments and consistent strengthening and stretching based on an explicit program that the cyst can be reduced in size and, more importantly, the activity limiting symptoms can be substantially minimized so that I can continue pursue lifelong loved rigorous exercise. Base on the first ten days and two visits, I am convinced!

Fantastic experience: Ilana is a fantastic PT. I’ve been seeing her since the dawn of the pandemic. She has helped me heal from lower back pain and neck pain. She is a gifted massage therapist as well and teaches exercises to keep me in good shape. Her kindness and empathy is a rare commodity these days. We wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: Dr Ilana is very knowledgeable, kind and professional in her practice. Welcoming to new patients.

Fantastic experience: My husband had a new knee recently, he’s 83 and was not doing his exercises in a timely manner. His surgeon said he would have to remanipulate his knee under anesthesia if he couldn’t get better flexibility. We heard about My Physio for Life from our daughter who My Physio was treating for a Pickleball injury. We decided to give them a try. Not only did My Physio prevent my husband from a knee remanipulation, they also helped me with my lower back pain and our daughter’s pickleball injury. Thank you Dr.Ilana and Dr Brynn for such wonderful care.

Fantastic experience: Have Plantar Fasciitis in both feet and now have a bone spur on Left heel. I thought for sure that I was going to need Surgery for the heel as it was noticeably inflamed and swollen, hot to the touch and I was in pain with every step I took. My doctor sent me to Physical Therapy. I was VERY skeptical about how physical therapy was going to solve anything with the bone spur in the heel. After 15 sessions at MY PHYSIO FOR LIFE, I now have no pain in my heal, the swelling and heat on my heal is gone and I can walk without pain. Dr Ilana is incredible. She not only focused on therapy for my heel, but took a full body approach to what was causing the inflammation and pain. Worked on Balance, Spine alignment, Stretching, Gait and therapy for the foot and heel. I am now a believer in what Physio For Life can do for a persons wellness. Thank You Dr Ilana !!!!

Fantastic experience: This has been an awesome experience. Focus has been on multiple body parts with exercise, stretching, massage therapy and laser. Dr Brinn and the staff are friendly and create a family atmosphere. They care tremendously about the veteran community.

Fantastic experience: My experience is 1000% (yes, one thousand) positive. Dr. Ilana knows her stuff and provides excellent, skilled, knowledgeable therapies, individually tailored to each client. What she does is a total GIFT of skill. I highly recommend her for any health issue you may be facing, along with the typical reasons to see a physical therapist. She is a "HEALER" !!!!!!!! See her before you commit to any tradition medical therapies, especially drugs and surgery. She is a true "functional health therapist". Her staff are also excellent, cordial, and engaging.

Fantastic experience: I have only started my treatment four times and each time I have experienced improvement in my injured knee. The pain has drastically decreased, my mobility and flexibility has improved significantly. I can now do stretching and squats with ease which I have not done for years. I have eleven more sessions to go and I am very confident that I will be able to be physically active again without pain.

Fantastic experience: The staff at MPFL is amazing. Dr. Ilana and Dr. Brynn are so professional and focused on their patients. They take time to really understand their patients’ goals and then work to achieve them. They use the latest technology (like laser therapy) and also exercise-based therapy. They are doctors of PT, so they really know what they’re doing! Sancar at the front desk is so kind and helpful too! He has worked with my schedule and insurance (VA) to make sure I got the treatment that I needed. I have had a lot of PT in the past but MPFL is different. It is fun, effective, and focused on total wellness. I would highly recommend MPFL to anyone needing PT or even someone just wanting to get in better shape or become more mobile/flexible. MPFL is great!

Fantastic experience: One of the best PT I have found in the North County Area. My daughter worked in this industry for the last 11 years locally. Basically, I’m very familiar with the area and choices. I have to say Ilana was a breath of fresh air. Ilana took my knee from barely moving with a walker to back to 3+ miles a day. I will definitely be back.

Fantastic experience: Ilana is by far the best PT I have ever seen. She spent dedicated time understanding my issue, diagnosing and educating me on the condition, and provided me with excellent treatment solutions. Unlike other clinics I've been to where the PT is trying to get through patients as quick as possible, Ilana spent ample time actually treating me with a variety of innovative techniques. She truly cares about her patients healing and makes you feel heard and hopeful. I have been so impressed with Ilana and the clinic and I'm already seeing progress in my healing after just a couple sessions - this is a big deal seeing as I went to 2 other clinics previously with no resolve. I would absolutely recommend going to see Ilana - from wherever you are located in San Diego or beyond, being in her care is worth it!

Fantastic experience: I recently had several sessions at My Physio For Life physical therapy…Dr. Ilana Tunca was awesome she changed my perspective on PT and how new technology has changes the way it’s being done in nowadays. This place has all new equipment’s which make it easier and a lot more convenient doing PT. I highly recommend this place to anyone who’s in pain, I promise you’ll receive the most up to date treatment you’ll ever experience in your life…especially those fellow veterans who are in constant pain…they have laser treatments that will help you heal quickly. Thank you Dr. Tunca. “S”

Fantastic experience: Excellent! Dr Llana’s approach & techniques are different & better than any other PT therapy that I have ever experienced before. I have has great results. Highly recommend My Physio For Life.

Fantastic experience: If I could give 1000 stars, I would. Wow. Just wow. If you are a zebra who is suffering from crushing chronic pain, weakness, hypermobility and lack of dexterity or have an injury of any kind- this is the PT for you. I have never experienced such caring and knowledgeable therapists in my 25 years of chronic illness. I will have immense standards, because Illana raises the bar to astronomical heights with her kindness, wonderful nature, and expertise. Thank you so much for bettering my body and building me better, faster, stronger than before. Ps. The massage table and laser therapy are straight fire never saw those before, and wow!!!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Tunca is great with diagnosis and spends more time 1-on-1 with patients rather than handing off to an assistant after initial consultation. The office/clinic itself is clean, well-maintained.

Fantastic experience: From my first appointment, the staff have been nothing short of professional, accommodating, and kind. They have amazing equipment. From the traction machine, to the massage table, to physically challenging and strengthening exercises there is nothing they havent been able to have 2-3 options per issue if any specific exercise causes discomfort as well. I would highly recommend this physical therapy clinic to anyone.

Fantastic experience: For three years I have been suffering knee pain. Had to quit playing handball. Thought about selling our condo since it was a struggle dealing with the pain going up and down 13 stairs. My Scripps surgeon showed me my X-rays - one big bundle of arthritis. He agreed I needed knee replacement surgery but at 80 years old he suggested I try physical therapy before surgery. But after 2 knee surgeries, one ankle surgery, rotator cuff surgery... and weeks and weeks of physical therapy where seldom did I end up with the therapist I started with and always felt like was caught in a money making mill, I was totally against PT. My wife raved about My Physio For Life. I reluctantly made an appointment. Fast forward 6 weeks. Yesterday, my wife and I took a two mile walk on a concrete sidewalk. NO PAIN. I navigate the stairs in our condo. Ocassionall will have pain at level 1 or 2 that I can deal with. I sleep without having to have pillows under my kness. And cut my swim time, 1,500 meters, by 8 minutes. Dr. Tunca is remarkable and, in my opinion, she is at a level far above what has been avaiable for far too long. Her focus, when you are at her facility is you, you, you. My big upside, I do not have to endure the pain of knee replacement surgery.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Dr. Ilana for about a month now for ankle pain when running. It was unfortunately misdiagnosed by a different clinician at another office, and I was getting nowhere after 8 weeks of PT twice a week, lots of massage, chiropractic appointments, and no running. Within about 2 weeks of seeing Dr. Ilana, she had me test out my ankle on a run. She has helped me using many different modalities, including strength, rolling, cupping, massage, and laser. I came for the laser hoping it would solve my problem, but it takes more than just that, and she has had the patience and encouragement to get me healthy and back to doing what I love. I am currently working my way back to start prepping for some fall races, and I couldn’t be more thankful for her help.

Fantastic experience: I genuinely cannot say enough positive things about the folks at My Physio for Life. Ilana is so talented, knowledgable and clearly passionate about helping people and is aiming to do amazing things with her clinic. I've been to multiple PT's through the years and nobody has ever taken as much time to explain things as she does and she goes out of her way to use kind/non-shaming language, and provide a compassionate and safe space for healing. I have not only felt progress and a reduction in pain since working with her, but I feel more equipped with the knowledge and skills to help myself should symptoms ever reoccur in the future.

Fantastic experience: Ilana and staff are very friendly. The environment is clean, peaceful and full of state of the art physical therapy equipment. Ilana genuinely listens well and tailored stretching exercises to accommodate my injuries. Her fun, caring, positive mindset and attitude makes me want to push myself to improve and strive to work hard to reduce if not eliminate my limitations. I'm excited to return for more sessions without fear of judgment.

Fantastic experience: I started Physical Therapy about 6 weeks ago. Came in for a left knee pain and lower back consult. Started twice a week and I am feeling stronger and the knee pain has subsided. Dr. Ilana makes the time go by quickly with lots of different exrcises and treatments. She's the best.

Fantastic experience: How could I forget the hands of a healer?? You won’t forget either if you just read this review, then contact the clinic to engage in services for mind and body. Acute or chronic pain, immobility, weakness, or to simply maintain the mojo, My Physio For Life is in charge of my physio for life. Trust me. Crystal says so.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Tunca provides an amazingly welcoming and warm environment in which I was able to trust my recovery for MMA to. Her team does so without sacrificing quality of care and friendliness - I can't recommend this facility enough!

Fantastic experience: Dr.Alana helped me get off my cane through laser and massage therapy after my hip replacement and a plan for at home strengthening exercises and I recommend her highly.

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at My Physio for Life. Dr. Tunca and Sancar were incredibly welcoming and friendly. They made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout my treatment. The facility itself is modern and clean. Dr. Tunca was professional and very knowledgeable. She was also very patient and encouraging. I give this facility five stars and would recommend My Physio for Life to anyone that is looking for a great PT facility.

Fantastic experience: After suffering carpal tunnel for over a year and having gone to another PT office with no results, I am thrilled to have found Dr. Ilana. She is very knowledgable, attentive, and caring. After just one treatment and with the exercises she assigned, I noticed less pain, and by the fourth treatment I had almost no symptoms. She and Sancar are very professional. Their office is very clean and organized, and I am always greeted very warmly. I highly recommend Your Physio for Life.

Fantastic experience: I will say I was hesitant at first to go to any physical therapist. I was referred by a friend at my gym. She mentioned some kinda heat laser and joes it’s got feeling awesome and I should try it. I figured what the heck. My 1st time in it felt like I had been there before and Ilana was warm and attentive. She’s straight to the point but you feel heard. After my 1st secession it was really easy to make a plan and do more then just heat laser. Her husband works the front desk he’s pretty quit but he’s got a great sense of humor. I feel much better my right arm went from feeling like I wanted to pull it off to I can move with out pain. My plantar fasciitis is way better. I was given tools and tips in how to stay healthy in my after during work outs so I stay strong. They are a great team and I think you should try it out.

Fantastic experience: If I could give 1000 stars, I would. Wow. Just wow. If you are a zebra who is suffering from crushing chronic pain, weakness, hypermobility and lack of dexterity or have an injury of any kind- this is the PT for you. I have never experienced such caring and knowledgeable therapists in my 25 years of chronic illness. I will have immense standards, because Illana raises the bar to astronomical heights with her kindness, wonderful nature, and expertise. Thank you so much for bettering my body and building me better, faster, stronger than before. Ps. The massage table and laser therapy are straight fire never saw those before, and wow!!!

Fantastic experience: A friend suggested I contact Dr. llana Tunca at My Physio For Life after I told her I was having severe muscle spasms in my lower back. Dr. llana, is by far the best physical therapist I have ever had. She is hands on and was genuinely interested in my recovery. After the first visit, I felt better and over the course of my treatment, I am walking without pain and have regained mobility where I can resume normal activities. I feel better equipped to help my body heal because of the conversations about body mechanics given to me by Dr. llana. I believe the road to recovery would have taken months, not weeks had it not been for the treatment I received. The "My Physio Life/ PT App" -with video shows you how to complete each at home exercise. Her facility is clean and calm. She is continually looking for the best equipment to keep up to date with treatment options. Sancar, the Patient Engagement Specialist at the front counter always greets with a smile. 5 Stars, Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I had an awesome experience with Dr. Ilana. I came in for an unexplainable sharp pain in my Achilles heel and she diagnosed the problem in the first few minutes of my appointment. Then she got to work with different massages, stretches, and exercises to help relieve the pain and prevent it from coming back. She has an app where you can review your stretches and exercises that include video tutorials and number of reps to complete each day which was really helpful in my recovery. After a few sessions I was able to go on walks again with no pain! Her office in Oceanside is really clean and modern with lots of parking. Her and her husband who helps out around the office are so friendly and inviting. Highly recommend this place for any physical therapy needs!

Fantastic experience: As I am doing my home exercises tonight, I wanted to stop & share how grateful I am to have stumbled upon Dr. Ilana and her new, clean office here in RDO. I have chronic knee/hip/back/pelvic/you name it issues for about 12 years now & have seen many specialists & DPT’s in my day. She did her best to fit me in right away & to my surprise, she was able to help me find relief after the 1st visit that I almost cried. She is very knowledgeable and kind that I thought it would be nice to recommend her to others what a great asset she is to our community here in Oceanside. I’m still working on myself with her and I am so happy she was able to help me get started because I was really having trouble getting help anywhere else. Although my insurance does not cover my visits, I still think they are worth it :)

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend My Physio for Life. Ilana made a massive difference in recovering from two severe ankle sprains. Just after the initial visit, I saw immediate improvements, and after three weeks, I can start running again and do all my physical activity. We recommend her to all of our friends and only hear great things from everyone who works with her. She is highly encouraging and cares about your well-being. I plan on returning for other back/shoulder pain that I've been experiencing over the last few years.

Fantastic experience: I have received the best therapy ever! One-on-one with my Ilana is unique and so personalized!! I feel at home here. I have low back pain and SI joint issues and I had previous treatment with no results . First time seeing Ilana I already feel better can’t wait for my next appointment. Highly recommend !

Fantastic experience: After being rear ended I suffered chronic pain for over a year. I saw multiple orthos, and at least 7 physical therapists. When I met Ilana I knew immediately she was coming at my back pain from a different angle. After seeing numerous professionals and feeling less than optimistic, I was shocked at her expertise and thorough approach to tackling chronic pain. I dedicated myself to her recommendations and to this day utilize her exercises, stretches and postures. Ilana thinks about chronic pain in a very unique way, and I found she was the only person that was able to provide me with any kind of relief. She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and provides a very comfortable atmosphere.
