It's a small space, but well organized and the pacing and rehab experience have been positive and I am seeing improvement.

Major continuity of care problem, please call your insurance if you are having problems with Active…read moreMarin PT switching out insurance rapidly at the end of 2025 or billing you a ton for appointments you booked before 12/28/25. I learned this behavior is not allowed and violates both patient notice requirements as well as Continuity of Care laws and No Surprise laws in the state of California. Forcing a post-surgical patient in severe pain to make a rushed financial decision at the front desk is considered administrative coercion and poor medical ethics. I had foot surgery in mid November and was referred for post-surgical PT for hip and low back at my 12/22/25 follow up with my surgeon, due to issues that developed from an uneven gait in the walking boot. I contacted my insurance for referrals and was referred to Active Marin PT as well as a few others that were IN NETWORK. I was in pain and not sleeping well, so when I called Active Marin PT on 12/23/25, and was booked in for eight appointments beginning 12/29/25, I was very relieved. In my booking call, I provided my insurance information and Active Marin PT confirmed they were IN NETWORK. I showed up, in pain, on 12/29/25 and was told verbally that Active Marin PT had ended their contract with my insurance the day before, 12/28/25, but Active Marin PT would file something called a "gap form" on my behalf to bring their services back IN NETWORK. I was very confused as I had been booked for eight (8) appointments before they ended their contract on 12/28/25, and because PT was part of my post-surgical care. And I had made sure with Active Marin PT that I was IN NETWORK. I was induced to continue with care because Active Marin PT stated a plan (the "gap form") to deal with their contractual changes so my services would be covered In Network. Importantly, no one from Active Marin PT contacted me BEFORE of my appointment to explain they had cancelled their office's contract with my insurance (Blue Shield of CA, not a small provider) and obtain my consent to different charges or give me alternative options. I was instructed to keep my three appointments that week and wait out the gap form, and frankly I was in terrible pain that was making it hard to walk, and needed help at that point. I have since learned that the medical provider must give written notice to all patients when a master insurance plan is changed. I also learned that the Continuity of Care doctrine means my care continues for a period of time at In Network rates due to the booking date of 12/23/25, and I learned about the Post Surgical Care laws. Both laws disallow Balance Billing, or upcharging the patient to enrich the medical practice above what insurance allows. I followed up daily on the "gap form" both with my insurance and with Active Marin PT; after the first week (3 appointments) I became concerned about the lack of progress and I cancelled the rest of my appointments. The reception did not seem to have a handle on when or how the gap form might be resolved. I also asked how billing was going to be handled and no one seemed to know. I moved on to an In Network PT who is great, but I had to wait a while to get in for care. Active Marin's behavior cost me additional time in pain. Flash forward - not only did Active Marin PT NOT bill for the three visits at In Network rates ($15 per visit for me, total $45), they Balance Billed a total of $590 for three appointments. Before I knew the laws, I offered to negotiate the bill. Per my insurance, these appointments would have cost me $15 per, or $45 total. I offered $250 (5X what my bill would have been to try and be fair) in resolution. While I understand business contracts can change, Active Marin PT owed me full and complete disclosure of this change BEFORE booking me in for 8 appointments, taking me on an emotional roller coaster while in pain, confusing me with insurance jargon, and forcing me to start my care over, all while Balance Billing and violating California Continuity of Care Laws and California Post-Surgical Care Laws. Active Marin PT refused to even discuss the problem or work out a solution with me, instead inserting their billing coordinator into a quasi-lawyer position to go back and forth with me. It is important for the community to take extra steps with this business and triple check insurance contracts have not changed before each appointment or risk expensive and fake Balance Bills and a dismissive and rude attitude. If this happened to you, please file a complaint with your insurance company so you do not pay false and expensive Balance Bills like I did. I am out $590 and a lot of headache due to this bad behavior.

I love running, biking, hiking, etc. so when I managed to throw out my back to the point where I couldn't bend over or even put on shoes, I was at a complete loss as to what to do. I got two massages and was adjusted by a chiropractor, but the pain and immobility only got worse. I then made an appointment with a traditional doctor, who would have likely prescribed muscle relaxers and a brace, but fortunately was referred to Jared by my running coach. Jared quickly assessed my body and identified all of the different issues that were causing my back to lock up. He immediately got to work on making the proper adjustments, releasing tension in the fascia surrounding my muscles, and restoring the normal mechanical movement of my body. He also prescribed stretches, exercises and dietary changes that I could do at home. After 10 sessions, my body felt better than it has in years and I now have a much better understanding of my weaknesses and tendencies and most importantly how I can ensure long term health. Jared's objective is to heal his patients and he (unlike many doctors today) is not motivated by creating a reoccurring and lucrative stream of patients with chronic pain. He's also a pleasure to talk to and is incredibly informative. I'll definitely go back for "check-ups" or if I have any future injuries or issues.

Yet when you focus into your body, you can literally feel the muscles and connective tissues unwinding and becoming unknotted. Very amazing and powerful stuff. Jared is also highly intuitive and has a beautiful sense of when deeper emotional issues might be affecting the physical body. He helps you connect with all levels of your being to bring them into greater alignment and ease, and to propel you to a greater level of healing and thriving. I always leave his office feeling lighter, happier and more comfortable in my body. There are lots of therapists out there, but Jared is a true master. I love him!
