CHIROPRACTIC assistant
Jenna Hilton
Jenna was born and raised locally. The Truckee/Tahoe region holds a very special place in her heart. She’s always had a love for the outdoors and enjoys the healthy lifestyle it promotes. She currently lives in Tahoe City with her husband Ed, daughter Nora, and goldendoodle Hobbes. Her son, Evan, is in college. After pursuing a career in education and later non-profit development, Jenna’s interest shifted to holistic healthcare. She found Dr. Cathy when she was expecting her son in 2005. Her chiropractic journey fueled her quest for healing and balance. She immediately saw positive changes in her all areas of her life and subsequently two healthy pregnancies and deliveries. Both of her children have had the benefit of chiropractic care since the birth.
When the opportunity arose in 2009, Jenna was thrilled to begin working as a Chiropractic Assistant for Dr. Cathy. Working alongside practice members has been pivotal to her own journey to wellness and a continual platform for learning about true health.
In her free time, Jenna loves spending time with her family and as much time outdoors as possible. She also enjoys volunteering with several local non-profit youth organizations. Jenna is inspired everyday by practice members’ testimonials and commitment to their health. She is devoted to helping people of all ages live to their full potential.
