Best Gym
Fit to Recover
FTR is not your typical bro-lift-things-up-and-put-them-down gym. It's more of a support group for those in recovery that offers fitness classes. Actually, there are four areas the gym advocates: fitness, creative arts, nutrition and community service, and FTR offers involvement in each of them, all while providing an environment of self-care and encouragement.

Best Alternative Medicine
Align Utah
The philosophy here is pretty simple: "We believe you were born to be healthy." Makes sense. For some, their everyday existence is aches, pains and lethargy. But, turns out, that's not how your body is supposed to be, and Align Utah aims to help patients find a way to wellness through nutrition, detox, chiropractic work and functional medicine. Feeling better and healthy isn't out of reach. (SA)

The Joint
Sitting is killing us. Some studies even say that sitting all day is worse for your health than smoking. And posture? There isn't an office worker around who hasn't been burdened with back pain, neck tension or other chair-related spine issues. Lucky for us desk dwellers, there's The Joint, where we can pop in at any time for an adjustment. With package options and no appointments necessary, your back will feel better in no time. (SA)

Many people are filled with dread at the thought of going to the dentist, but shake off those worries because they are unfounded at the office of Dr. Jason Lewis.
