"Life Works has done wonders for me. All the pain I had been suffering for 4 years—no more pain in my leg, no more pain in my back. I'm able to move and go back to what I used to do!"
"I came to Lifeworks for chronic pain in my neck and back. It has been greatly reduced and I am progressing well. This clinic goes beyond simple adjustments—PT, trigger point injections, and massage!"
"Thanks to Lifeworks (Dr. Matt and staff) for getting me upright and walking again. I'm so impressed with the care and knowledge they provide. So glad I chose them!"
Back pain is rarely caused by a single issue. It's usually a combination of factors: spinal misalignment, muscle imbalances, poor posture, and inflammation—all working together to create chronic pain.
The problem with most treatments? They only address ONE piece of the puzzle. Medications mask the pain. Adjustments alone don't strengthen muscles. PT without alignment keeps problems coming back.

"Back pain is rarely caused by one thing. That's why we take an integrative approach—combining chiropractic care, physical therapy, and advanced treatments to address ALL the factors causing your pain. We don't mask symptoms. We fix problems."
— Dr. Matt Gianforte, DC
Most chiropractors focus only on spinal adjustments. While adjustments are important, they're just one piece of the puzzle. Our integrative approach combines chiropractic care with physical therapy, trigger point injections, massage, and other treatments—all under one roof. This means we can address ALL the factors causing your pain, not just one.
In most cases, no. The vast majority of back pain can be effectively treated without surgery using our conservative, integrative approach. We always recommend exhausting non-surgical options first. Our goal is to help you avoid surgery altogether—and for most patients, we can.
Many patients notice improvement within the first few visits. However, lasting relief requires addressing the underlying cause, which takes time. During your evaluation, we'll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific condition. Most treatment plans run 6-12 weeks for optimal results.
Yes! We accept most major insurance including BCBS, United, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, and Medicare. We'll verify your coverage during your evaluation so you know exactly what to expect. We also offer flexible payment plans for any out-of-pocket costs.
Many of our patients come to us after trying other treatments without success. The difference is our integrative approach—we don't rely on just one type of treatment. By combining multiple therapies that work together, we can often help patients who haven't found relief elsewhere.
Don't let back pain control your life another day. Find out if our integrative approach can help you.
