LIFT Performance PT was founded with a clear mission: to provide athletes and active individuals in Wichita and the surrounding area with world-class rehabilitation and performance care—without the limitations of insurance-driven healthcare. Too often, traditional physical therapy models prioritize volume over quality, leaving athletes underserved and frustrated. LIFT was built to do the opposite: deliver highly individualized, cash-pay care designed to get athletes out of pain and back to lifting, training, and performing at their best.

Our roots began with Health and Performance Consulting, a practice started to offer general rehabilitation services as an in-network provider. As more barbell athletes, fitness competitors, and high performers sought care, it became clear that something bigger was needed—an approach that didn't just manage injuries but truly optimized performance. That vision led to the evolution of LIFT Performance PT.

At the core of everything we do is the LIFT framework:

• Listen to symptoms – We take the time to understand your pain, limitations, and how they impact your training and performance goals.

• Investigate the root – Through detailed assessment and movement analysis, we identify the underlying causes behind your symptoms, not just the surface-level complaints.

• Facilitate progress – Using hands-on therapy, corrective strategies, and evidence-based interventions, we actively move you toward pain-free function and performance.

• Train to perform – We don't stop at pain relief. We integrate performance training principles to build resilience, restore confidence, and help you surpass previous limits.

This process isn't a one-time event—it is a continual cycle applied throughout every plan of care. Whether you are a powerlifter, CrossFit athlete, Hyrox competitor, or someone who simply loves training, LIFT provides expert care that bridges the gap between rehab and performance.

By staying outside of insurance restrictions, we keep the focus where it belongs: on you, your progress, and your long-term results. LIFT is here for the athletes who don't just want to get back to "normal"—they want to get back to better.
