Chiropractor
Born and raised in the Minnetonka area, Dr. Brian Arne is a second generation Chiropractor who has a passion and desire to help guide as many people as humanly possible to a pain-free life full of abundant energy and inner peace.
As a child, Dr. Brian Arne observed his father treat patients with chiropractic care which inspired a profound and healthy change in the patient’s overall health and well-being.
Dr. Arne has a true passion for health and wellness which is what influenced him to seek a chiropractic education. Preceding his private practice that exists today, he honed his expertise while sharing a group practice with his father and 2-brothers. This experience and expertise give patients of the Arne Clinic the highest quality chiropractic, holistic and natural healthcare, unparalleled by any other practitioner in the Minnetonka and Twin Cities area.
Dr. Arne completed his undergraduate studies at Whittier College in California and the University of Minnesota. He received his Doctorate in Chiropractic from Northwestern Health Science University in Bloomington, Minnesota in 1986.
He also received his licensure in Acupuncture in 1986 and became certified as an Industrial Consultant which allows him to work directly with business. Dr. Arne has spent the last several years in post graduate studies in Natural Medicine, Clinical Nutrition, and Biofeedback Stress Reduction Techniques.
Dr. Arne has over 40 years of experience treating a full spectrum of patients from infant to elderly with a wide variety of disorders utilizing his Natural approach to Healthcare. He has found far superior results occur when combining chiropractic, acupuncture, natural medicine and stress reduction in order to remove the physical, chemical and emotional roadblocks that prevent the body from healing itself. Dr. Arne has a true passion for diagnosing and treating the patient for the underlying causes of the disorder. This type of natural healthcare allows for a more complete healing process to occur.
Dr. Arne practices a holistic approach for his own care which helps him stay healthy and active. He enjoys hiking, boating on Lake Minnetonka, and playing tennis as well as many other outdoor activities with his family.
Clinic Manager
As Clinic Manager at The Arne Clinic, Ellie plays an active role in nearly every part of the practice—from the patient experience and day-to-day operations to marketing and continued growth. Working alongside her father, Dr. Brian Arne, she is passionate about helping people take an active role in their health, feel more confident in their bodies, and discover the tools and support that can help them feel and function their best.
Growing up around chiropractic and holistic health gave Ellie an early appreciation for looking beyond symptoms and supporting the whole person.
She especially loves being part of an environment where patients are encouraged to better understand their bodies and are given the tools, education, and support to make meaningful, lasting changes in their health.
Her favorite part of her role is getting to combine her background in marketing with her passion for people, wellness, and helping grow a practice she genuinely believes in.
Outside of the clinic, Ellie loves traveling, cooking and trying foods from around the world, spending time with friends and family, and, of course, her cat Jazz. Before joining The Arne Clinic, she spent two years living in Madrid, Spain, where she taught English and developed an even greater love for travel, culture, and food.
