About Sean

My name is Dr. Sean Cailteux. I am a native Kansan, having been born in Wichita before moving to Texas at age 2. When I was 11 my mother moved us back to Kansas where I attended middle school and high school in the wonderful town of St. Marys. I continued my education at Washburn University where I majored in Exercise Physiology, and was named several times to the Dean’s Honor Roll. I then attended Parker College of Chiropractic in Dallas, TX where I graduated Cum Laude with my Doctorate of Chiropractic, while concurrently earning both a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Anatomy, as well as a Bachelor of Science degree in Health and Wellness. When I am out of the office I enjoy competing in Triathlons and Marathons, camping, fishing, and really doing anything that keeps me outdoors. I love to go dancing, but you do NOT want to hear me sing! I adore and worship my God, and I love my family. I feel truly blessed to be a part of the Chiropractic profession, for which I have such a profound respect and appreciation. I look forward to meeting you, and to helping you achieve a happier and healthier life.
