Meet Dr. Derik Sanders
From an early age, Dr. Sanders was aware of the benefits of chiropractic care. “Chiropractic has been a part of my life from as far back as I can remember. Growing up playing sports if I was ever injured or if I was feeling sick, my mom would always take me to see a chiropractor.” In his adult years he suffered from a herniated disc and most recently from a ruptured disc. Thanks to the chiropractic care he received, he was able to recover and avoid surgery in both cases.
Chef Turned Chiropractor
Before Dr. Sanders discovered his love for healing, he explored his passion for food and was a professional chef for seven years. When he later returned to school to finish his business degree, he realized that what he was working toward didn’t excite him. While taking an anatomy and physiology class, he was fascinated to learn about the amazing things that occur in the body and how all the systems work together. He changed his studies to chiropractic and went on to graduate from Parker College of Chiropractic in Dallas.
He began practicing in 2006. He joined his mentor, Dr. John Bandy, as an associate before opening up a practice with his father Dr. Mark Sanders. Dr. Sanders opened an office in Marble Falls in 2019 and has been sharing his excitement for wellness with the community.
