The Peter Attia Drive
#350 ‒ Injury prevention, recovery, and performance optimization for every decade | Kyler Brown, D.C.

It speaks to a bigger thing, which I'm really degree agnostic in the sense that I hope someday in the future, there's like a more clear certification or degree where there are chiros and PTs and frankly, strength coaches. All three of those people I would trust way more to do a rehab and get someone better. Who would I send my mom to?

I would send my mom to all three of those people if they have certain skill sets and like approaches. independent of degree or credential. Totally. Because the Cairo degree was my baseline training. That's where my license is and all that. But the traditional view of what Cairo is with the manipulations and the adjustments, that's 5% of our week at my practice.

Our practice, we have Cairo's amputees, but you can't really tell who's who because everybody's doing what we call is active rehab. So

One of the things I always tell people, I don't care what their degree is, but if you're going to a rehab clinic and it's one-to-one relationships, so it's not group, but it's one-to-one, and they've got a bunch of weights in there as well as their traditional bands and stuff, now that's an indicator, okay, these guys are going to build me back up to something actually strong, not just make me come in here forever and do rehab purgatory where I do the same micro drill over and over.

We got to build over time. So I'm really agnostic to a degree. But that said, my story, I basically tried to create a residency for myself right out of Cairo school. And back then it was really manual therapy based. I learned a ton. I was by far the lowest guy in the totem pole, which we all know how that works. A lot of time, a lot of learning, but I was there to soak it up.

Everyone always thinks pro sports is the top and it is in a lot of ways, but it wasn't really for me in terms of an official team relationship because I just didn't like that personal schedule. And it was pure chaos. Like you'd spend a week fixing somebody up and then they go out there and get blasted again. You're like, oh, that's a bummer.

It's kind of like when my son builds his tower of magnet tiles and then his sister knocks it over. The look on his face was me every Sunday, you know? So I really enjoy the off-season side. I really enjoy more of the project. And I realized early on that when you're only doing pain relief manual therapy work, there's a lot missing. We're not building people up. We're not strengthening them.

So that's when I just started doing this deep dive as much as I could and learning from as many people as I could about the foot and balance and neuromuscular training and all these other things to where it's a compliment at my private clinic when people are like, what are you? We actually have people come in our office now. We're like, I need to go see my chiropractor later. And

One of my other docs will be like, well, I'm a chiropractor. Like what? I had no idea. And they've seen us for years. So we're probably supposed to identify ourselves better, but regardless, we're solving problems.

No, the way I would describe it is I've benefited from getting adjusted myself. Things get out of whack. Things get stiff. You sleep on a plane where like, that's a real thing, but it's a tool in the tool belt. And the really good practitioners have a bunch of tools.
