My name is Dr. Ben Kurtz. I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Board Certified Clinical Orthopedic Specialist, and owner of MJ Physical Therapy in Vista, CA. At MJ Physical Therapy, our passion is movement: Movement to repair our bodies, whether in response to injury or simply to improve athletic performance.

Movement to restore our minds, tapping into the natural endorphins released during exercise to flood our brains with feelings of pleasure and well being in the face of the myriad emotional and mental stressors we face in the daily grind. Movement to renew our lives, realizing our goals and returning us to the activities that bring us joy.

The kind and compassionate healing of MJ should be known to all. Dr. Kurtz is youthful, but somehow feels like he has the wisdom of a soul aged 1000's of years on this earth. I can literally feel my body healing during our sessions - amazing!!!

The MJ clinic is incredible! Their personal one on one care helped me get back to 100% quicker than I imagined. If I had any questions, the therapist was there to answer. It was refreshing to know I had support throughout my recovery process! Great staff, incredibly knowledgeable! So friendly! Couldn’t ask for a better group!

Ben Kurtz is a phenomenal clinician. He is an expert manual therapist and it’s clear that he is multiple levels above your average physical therapist. I have referred multiple friends to Ben and they have all had the same excellent experience.

Kevin is a thorough and knowledgeable therapist. He spent the whole hour with me and I swear he has healing hands! He had me back to rock climbing 2 weeks sooner than he promised... gotta love that. Thank you!

This is a terrific place to get physical therapy in the North County San Diego area! The new owner, Dr. Ben Kurtz, was my physical therapist when I used to see him at Rancho Physical Therapy in San Marcos. He left there to start this new place. I had to do a little sleuth work to find him for a new round of physical therapy after breaking my hip. I'm thrilled I found Ben again! It's a commute, but I won't let anyone else to my PT!

I highly recommend coming to see Ben and his team! I have had plenty of PT’s and have never met a more caring group of people! I have had the pleasure to work with Ben himself and Jordan a member of his team. They both have treated me for back surgery recovery, listened to my goals and helped me reach those and beyond way before expected ! They pay close attention to your needs, gear your therapy session to them and push you just enough to help you feel much better leaving than when you walked in.

I have been seen by Melissa Steiner for hand, arm, ankle and other problems. Each time she was able to help me and give me pain relief
during the process. MJ and her first rate staff show kindness and compassion to each person they treat.
We are very fortunate to have Melissa here.

I was referred to MJ Physical by my primary doctor for some ongoing pain I was experiencing. I didn't have very high hopes for a solution with PT, but these guys really know their stuff.
I had significantly better results here than with numerous Chiropractors in the past. I will definitely be back if I have any new pains int he future!
