Dr. Bryon Arena
Dr. Arena was born and raised in northeast Ohio, where he was a straight-A student and a serious athlete in wrestling and track. He was an all-American in football and participated in strength competitions. After graduating from Malone University with a bachelor’s degree in exercise science and community health education, Dr. Arena ran a rehabilitation clinic at a local chiropractor’s office – having been a chiropractic patient himself, he was not new to the healing, restorative nature of the practice. Running the rehabilitation clinic inspired Dr. Arena to pursue his career as a chiropractor.
In 2011, Dr. Arena and his wife, Lizabeth, moved to upstate New York so that he could realize this dream. While at the New York Chiropractic College, Dr. Arena earned certifications in Advanced Human Sport and Performance, RockTape, and Applied Kinesiology. He also revived the Whole Foods Nutrition Club, where he researched and presented the latest in whole food supplementation and nutrition. Upon graduating with a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Arena and Lizabeth relocated to Lexington to open Arena Chiropractic, PLLC, and serve the local community.
Dr. Arena and Lizabeth were high school sweethearts and have been married since 2009. Their family also includes their beloved dogs: a golden retriever named Húsa and an English boxer named Misha. In his spare time, Dr. Arena is in the gym training for his next competition, out and about enjoying the community, or in the kitchen perfecting his smoked brisket.
