“My highly-recommended doctor told me my meniscus would not heal. We proved them wrong.”
Doug came to Lifeworks after surgery, medications, and working with two different doctors who still couldn’t help him. After starting care here, he’s back to using stairs and 99% of his pain is gone.
“Actually getting back to running because of the healing of my meniscus! I’m so excited.”
Teresa was devastated after being told surgery and medications were her only options. After starting care, her meniscus is healing without surgery and she’s on her way to running 100k ultramarathons again.
“I bought a house with no stairs because of my knees, but now I can use stairs again!”
Ferese came after seeing multiple doctors with no improvement. Now the cracking in her knees is gone, she can use stairs again with confidence, and she finally felt truly listened to.
“One of the best investments I’ve ever made.”
Jim came in constant pain with bone-on-bone joints and sleepless nights. After starting care, he gained strength and stability, no longer deals with painful cracking, and drives over 60 miles because it’s worth it.

LifeWorks Integrative Health was founded in 2005 by Dr. Matt Gianforte with a simple mission: to help people find lasting relief from pain without relying on medications or surgery.
After graduating from the prestigious Palmer College of Chiropractic, Dr. Matt saw too many patients stuck in a cycle of temporary fixes and endless appointments. He knew there had to be a better way.
That’s why he built LifeWorks—a truly integrative clinic where chiropractors, physical therapists, and nutrition specialists work together to address the root cause of your health issues, not just the symptoms.
Today, our team has helped thousands of patients across Shawnee, Overland Park, and Kansas City get back to the activities they love—pain-free.

A proven 4-step process to get you moving again and back to living
We assess your movement patterns, strength, flexibility, and mechanics to identify exactly what's causing your pain or limitation.
Based on your evaluation, we create a custom plan combining manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and specialized techniques for YOUR specific condition.
Our hands-on approach combines in-clinic sessions with home exercises—empowering you to take control of your recovery.
Once you're pain-free and moving well, we give you the tools to stay that way—exercises, stretches, and guidance to prevent future problems.

Most patients begin to see improvement within 2-6 weeks, though this varies based on your condition. Some notice relief after just a few sessions, while chronic conditions may require longer treatment plans. We’ll give you realistic expectations during your first visit.
In most cases, you can come directly to us without a referral. However, some insurance plans may require one for coverage. Contact us and we’ll help you understand your specific requirements.
Yes! We accept most major insurance plans including BCBS, United, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, and Medicare. We’ll verify your coverage before you start treatment so there are no surprises.
While you may experience some discomfort as we work through problem areas, therapy shouldn’t be painful. Our therapists work within your comfort level and adjust techniques as needed. Many patients actually feel better immediately after sessions.
Physical therapy focuses on muscle coordination, strength, and movement rehabilitation. Chiropractic focuses on joint function and spinal alignment. At LifeWorks, we often combine both for optimal results—PT strengthens the muscles while chiropractic aligns the joints.
