We love the surrounding nature and how amazing and friendly the people are. We love camping, hiking, and anything that has to do with the outdoors and plan to instill the wonders of nature to our family. We also love the fact that Utah is one of the most family-friendly communities we have ever been to.”

Holistic vs. Wholistic

This is just my opinion: Holistic to me is everything and anything natural that will aid in the healing process. Wholistic means whole person healing. There are 3 main components of healing that make up a wholistic approach to healing. Mind, Body, and Soul. Now doing all things natural is the way to go for any healing situation, yet encompassing each compartment within the person is a different subject.

Being a truly wholistic healer to me, means that one is working on the whole person, Mind, Body, and Soul. Emotional healing supersedes physical healing and Soul healing supersedes emotional healing. The question is, how do we heal the Soul and what do you mean by “soul healing”? The only way to heal the soul is to understand what the soul really is. I will not go into detail about my interpretations about what the soul is here, but I will say that you don’t heal the soul. The soul heals you.

Family Chiropractic

Momentum Chiropractic is a family focused practice meaning we love adjusting the whole family, including infants and children. It is so important to help you child’s spine develop in the best alignment as possible. Give your children the gift of Chiropractic and help them take as less medications and medical interventions as possible as they age. Kids heal fast and they do not require as much or as frequent adjustments as adults do. Kid’s take lots of falls and have so many opportunities to misalign themselves. These slight misalignments can turn into problems as they age. Let us remove these tensions from their body before they get a chance to grow worse. Its like good hygiene for the spine. You wouldn’t go a day without having your children floss and brush their teeth. Well, the same goes for their spines. Children do great with once or twice per month. Some only need to come in once or twice per year.
