A native of Maryland, Trevor Wendel began his career in physical medicine as a massage therapist in 2003 prior to moving to Arcata to attend Humboldt State University. He graduated from HSU in 2009 with a degree in Kinesiology and a minor in Public Health.
His background in hands-on care combined with his education in movement science informed his decision to become a chiropractor. He attended Palmer College of Chiropractic West, completed a clinical rotation at the Palo Alto Veterans Administration Hospital,and graduated in 2017.
During his studies he focused on developing and honing a wide variety of manual therapy and rehab skills for both the general and athletic populations and sought certification level training in Active Release Techniques.
In his spare time, Dr. Wendel enjoys hiking and camping in the beautiful county we call home, and spending time with his two children.
