Get to Know Us

Dr. Patrick Trenary

Chiropractor

Dr. Patrick Trenary’s path to chiropractic care was shaped by a unique blend of military precision and personal experience. After serving in the U.S. Marine Corps maintaining the complex hydraulic systems of F-18 fighter jets, he sought a new career dedicated to service. The true catalyst for his journey came when his wife found lasting relief from debilitating migraines through chiropractic, revealing to him the body's powerful capacity for self-healing. This profound experience inspired him to attend Palmer College of Chiropractic. After practicing for five years in Louisville, KY, Dr. Trenary returned to his Iowa roots to establish Active Family Chiropractic in Mason City. As a Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioner (CCEP), he offers a comprehensive approach, addressing joint function throughout the body to help his patients achieve their health and wellness goals.
