Meet Arleen Scholten, Chiropractor & Wellness Advocate
Arleen Scholten
Chiropractor
Arleen Scholten graduated from Northwestern College of Chiropractic in 2001 with her BSc and Doctor of Chiropractic degree. With Dutch roots, she began her career helping establish a thriving chiropractic practice in Amsterdam before moving to the UK — but not before meeting her future husband at mile 13 of the Amsterdam Marathon! Today they share three children, two of whom were born at home in water births.
In 2006, Arleen rebranded her work as Chiropractic 1st, which has since grown significantly as more people choose chiropractic care for natural, research-backed solutions to their health concerns.
Arleen has always lived an active, health-focused lifestyle, making chiropractic a natural calling. She continually invests in advanced training and seminars to stay up-to-date with the latest research and techniques. In 2021, she also became a certified Yoga and Breathwork instructor, further expanding her holistic approach to wellbeing.
Outside the clinic, Arleen is passionate about sport and the outdoors. She has completed 11 marathons, three half–Ironman triathlons, and is currently training for a 6 km open-water swim. She loves running, cycling, swimming, skiing, and more recently has taken up the fast-growing sport of padel. Her own athletic journey fuels her passion for helping patients—from beginners to elite athletes—return to the activities they love and perform at their best.
Over the years, Arleen has collected hundreds of inspiring patient stories: individuals of all ages regaining movement, reducing pain, rediscovering energy, and enjoying life more fully through chiropractic care.
Arleen’s primary focus is education—understanding the root cause of why your body isn’t healing the way it should. She also has a strong interest in nutrition and the latest longevity and healthy-ageing trends (if you’ve heard of it, she’s probably tried it!). Arleen's new Moto is to 'Redefine Ageing'.
If you’re looking to move better, feel better, or return to the activities you love, you’re in the right place.
