Meet Our Doctors
Tilton Chiropractic & Wellness Center is dedicated to helping patients make wise choices. Too many people make a committed effort after they experience a health crisis, forgetting that if you lose your health, nothing else will matter. That’s why I partner with my patients to help them focus on and implement solutions that will pay health dividends for years to come.

Dr. Trent Tilton
Dr. Trent Tilton is the founder of Tilton Chiropractic Wellness Centers, which are dedicated to helping patients change their lifestyle habits. Dr. Tilton earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Science from the University of Iowa in 1996 and went on to earn his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 2000.
Dr. Tilton is married to Dr. Nicole Tilton, who practices alongside him. In addition to maintaining busy practices, they stay extra busy raising their four children. In his “spare” time, Trent is an avid golfer who participates in many local amateur tournaments.
Dr. Tilton’s mission is simple: to help people manage their own health and healing. This can be challenging in a culture that often perceives health and healing as coming from outside the body. Every second, the choices we make either build the body up or tear it down. Dr. Tilton sees it as his responsibility to help patients distinguish between good choices and poor choices.
True health is determined by how we function, not merely by how we look or feel. Dr. Tilton asks his patients to consider what they did yesterday—or what they will do today or tomorrow—that their future body will thank them for. Too often, Americans place more faith in a potion or a pill than in the innate power within their own bodies to heal themselves.

Dr. Bri is a recent graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic, bringing her passion for holistic wellness and exercise science to the practice. With a deep understanding of the connection between the nervous system and overall health, she is dedicated to helping patients achieve optimal well-being through gentle, precise chiropractic adjustments.
Dr. Bri specializes in working with women, children, and athletes, providing care that is thoughtfully tailored to each individual’s needs. She is especially passionate about educating patients on the “fatal conveniences” of modern life—everyday products and habits that can negatively impact health, from household chemicals to the water we drink. By identifying and addressing these hidden stressors, Dr. Bri empowers her patients to make healthier choices that support long-term wellness.
Outside of the office, Dr. Bri is a volleyball coach at both Forest Hills Central High School and Rise Academy, where she enjoys fostering teamwork, discipline, and a positive mindset. Family is incredibly important to her, and she is excited to begin her own family journey with her fiancé, Dr. Jared, when they tie the knot in June 2025.
Dr. Bri is eager to serve her community and help people of all ages live healthier, more vibrant lives. Additional office hours will be coming soon as she continues to expand her care. She looks forward to being part of your wellness journey and supporting you in removing interference to your health.
