Anthem Blue Cross+5 moreMy name is Arek. I’m a Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in orthopedic and sports-related injuries, with experience working with both active individuals and high-level athletes. I earned my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of Southern California in 2020 and completed advanced orthopedic (2022) and sports (2024) physical therapy residencies through Adventist Health Glendale. My approach focuses on identifying the why behind your pain and creating a highly individualized plan to help you move better, feel stronger, and return to the activities you enjoy. I value clear communication, hands-on care, and progressive exercise, and I believe physical therapy should be collaborative, empowering, and tailored to you, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

What is neck pain?
Neck pain is discomfort in the cervical spine — the seven vertebrae between your skull and upper back. It can present as stiffness, sharp pain, dull aching, or radiating pain into the shoulders and arms. Most neck pain is muscular or postural in origin and responds well to physical therapy, even without imaging or medication.
Common symptoms
- Stiffness or difficulty turning your head
- Pain at the base of the skull or between shoulder blades
- Headaches originating from the neck
- Sharp pain with certain movements
- Numbness or tingling in the arms or hands
- Muscle tightness or spasms in the neck and upper back
- Pain that worsens after prolonged screen use
- Grinding or clicking sensations with movement
What causes neck pain?
Neck pain commonly stems from poor posture — particularly forward head posture from desk work and phone use. Muscle strain, cervical disc issues, facet joint irritation, and nerve compression can all contribute. Previous injuries like whiplash, arthritis, and stress-related tension are also common causes. Your PT will identify which factors are driving your specific symptoms.
How home visits help with neck pain
Evaluation at home.The first visit is a full evaluation in the patient's home. The physical therapist asks about the history and goals, watches how the patient moves in the rooms they live in, and builds a plan of care.
Treatment where it happens. Visits follow that plan: hands-on treatment where it helps, and exercises taught with the furniture, stairs, and floors the patient uses every day.
The doctor stays in the loop.The plan of care goes to the patient's doctor, with progress notes as therapy continues, and follow-up visits run until the goals in the plan are met.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a physical therapist for neck pain near Duarte?
Yes. One of our licensed physical therapists who treats neck pain visits homes in Duarte, along with nearby Monrovia, Arcadia, and Baldwin Park. Visits are outpatient physical therapy, covered by Medicare Part B and major insurers, with no homebound requirement.
Should I get an X-ray or MRI first?
Usually not. Guidelines recommend physical therapy as a first-line treatment. Your PT can identify signs that warrant imaging.
Is this covered by insurance?
Yes. Spark is in-network with Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Anthem, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, and more.
Is in-home physical therapy covered by Medicare?
Yes. In-home visits are covered by Medicare Part B. We're also in-network with Blue Shield, Anthem, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Humana, and other major plans, and we verify your benefits before the first visit so there are no surprise costs.
Will I see the same physical therapist each visit?
Yes. You're matched with a licensed physical therapist for your evaluation and every follow-up visit on the same plan of care.
Do you visit homes in Duarte?
Yes. Our physical therapists visit homes in Duarte and across greater Los Angeles, within about a 20-minute drive of where they're based. The best way to check your address is to get started and enter your ZIP code.
Is this the same as home health?
No. This is outpatient physical therapy that happens in your home, covered by Medicare Part B. Home health is a different Medicare benefit for people who are homebound, and it usually comes with nursing and other services. You don't need to be homebound to see us.
Can I see you while I'm getting home health care?
Not at the same time. Medicare doesn't cover outpatient Part B therapy while you're in a home health episode. Once your home health care ends, we can start. If you're not sure, ask us and we'll check.
Do I get to choose my physical therapist?
Yes. We have physical therapists across greater Los Angeles. You can learn about each one and request a visit with the one you want.
Do you accept my supplement plan?
Yes, we accept most Medicare supplement and secondary plans. When you book, we check your coverage in real time.
I've already reached the Medicare therapy limit. Can I still be seen?
Yes. Medicare covers therapy past that amount when it's medically necessary. Your physical therapist's evaluation and work with your doctor decide whether your care qualifies.
Can I pay cash?
For services Medicare doesn't cover, like wellness and fitness sessions, yes. Your physical therapist can talk through what that looks like, and we'll ask you to sign a Medicare notice (an ABN) before any service Medicare may not pay for.
Can you work with my family member or caregiver?
Yes. Your family member or caregiver can coordinate your care and be our go-to person. They can book for you on our page for caregivers.
