Under Mr. Pechin’s mentorship, Dr. Sanders has refined his expertise in treating athlete injuries, seamlessly incorporating these innovative methods into his practice.

Dr. Sanders earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology from Miami University of Ohio in 2015.

He went on to complete his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose, widely regarded as the premier institution for sports chiropractic education.

Returning to the U.S. during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Sanders joined CAP Alternative Therapy and has been collaborating closely with Chuck Pechin ever since.

Outside the clinic, Dr. Sanders cherishes time with his family—his wife, Dr. Angelica (a chiropractor specializing in pregnancy care), their daughter, Zari (a frequent visitor to the clinic), and their maltipoo, Coco. Together, they enjoy hiking, beach outings, and discovering new activities. Dr. Sanders’ personal interests include golf, snowboarding, and surfing, reflecting his passion for an active lifestyle.
