Dr. Brian Arne, D.C.
Holistic Health Practitioner
For nearly four decades, Dr. Brian Arne has helped patients look beyond their symptoms to better understand the underlying factors affecting their health. With extensive experience in holistic healthcare, natural medicine, clinical nutrition, detoxification, and chiropractic, his approach considers the whole person.
At Minnetonka Weight Loss, he applies this philosophy to weight management with a simple belief: weight is often a symptom, and lasting change begins by understanding what may be contributing to it.

Dr. Arne’s passion for this approach is also deeply personal. At around 20 years old, he found himself overweight, lethargic, struggling with brain fog, and simply not feeling healthy. Through his growing understanding of natural health, he came to believe that addressing his nutrition, lifestyle, and toxic exposures was an important part of restoring his health.
That experience helped shape a philosophy that would later become central to the way he cares for his patients: rather than simply masking symptoms, ask why they are occurring in the first place.
Growing up, Dr. Arne watched his father care for patients as a chiropractor and saw firsthand how the body could respond when given the right support. He eventually followed in his father’s footsteps, earning his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Northwestern Health Sciences University in 1986 after completing undergraduate studies at Whittier College and the University of Minnesota.
Throughout his career, Dr. Arne continued his studies in natural medicine, clinical nutrition, acupuncture, detoxification, and biofeedback stress-reduction techniques.
Today, he considers physical, chemical, nutritional, metabolic, and emotional factors that may be contributing to a patient’s health concerns.
His goal is to identify and address the factors that may be standing in the way of progress while educating patients and giving them practical tools to take an active role in their own health.
Outside of the clinic, Dr. Arne enjoys hiking, tennis, boating on Lake Minnetonka, and spending time outdoors with his family.
