About Derek
Dr Derek Ginter was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba and graduated from the University of Winnipeg with a bachelor degree in biochemistry. After graduation Dr Ginter went on to pursue his doctorate in chiropractic from Life University in Marietta, Georgia. Knowing that he wanted to help people achieve and maintain optimal health and performance, Dr Ginter became involved in many post graduate training seminars acquiring knowledge in a wide range of chiropractic techniques from more traditional techniques to the newest gentle and low force techniques. With a passion for family wellness, Dr Ginter has completed over 120 hours of study in Chiropractic Pediatrics from the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. Dr Ginter has also completed over 100 hours of postgraduate training in extremity adjusting and sports related injuries from the Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioners Program. Dr Ginter obtained his acupuncture certificate from McMaster University and is a licensed acupuncturist.
After graduating with honors (Summa Cum Laude) from Life University, Dr Ginter went into practice at a very busy wellness clinic in Seattle, Washington. Soon after, Dr Ginter and his wife Belinda opened a wellness clinic in Kelowna, British Colombia. While in Kelowna Dr Ginter frequently spoke to many groups and organizations on correcting and maintaining a healthy spine and nervous system and achieving overall wellness through balanced nutrition, exercise, and reducing stress. Dr Ginter also organized and ran a non-profit program for individuals with HIV and hepatitis to receive chiropractic care at no charge to help build and maintain a healthy immune system.
After a few years in Kelowna and upon starting a family, Dr. Ginter and his wife Belinda decided to move to Toronto to be closer to his wife's family in Peterborough. Dr Ginter has been in practice for the last 10 years in Ajax and has decided to open a second location where he currently lives in Oshawa with his wife, his daughter Natel, his son Gavin, and their dog Winston.
