About
Dr. Lyle McKissick

PT, DPT, CFC, MTC, CMP, Cert-FDN

Dr. Lyle McKissick grew up in Wyoming, surrounded by mountains, forests, and wild-open terrain. His life has always revolved around outdoor recreation and active adventures—and still does.

He graduated from the University of Wyoming before earning his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Regis University in 2013. As a lifelong learner, he continues to pursue extensive continuing education—in advanced certifications—to ensure he’s using the best tools and techniques for each patient.

Dr. Lyle is the only physical therapist in Colorado with a Cranial Facial Certification and one of less than 100 physical therapists in the United States to hold this certification.

When he’s not helping people get back to what they love, Dr. Lyle is rafting on a river, mountain biking, skiing, camping, and adventuring with his wife and two daughters.
