Spiritual Wellness and How Can It Affect You

You may have heard the term spiritual wellness thrown around quite a bit without knowing exactly what it means. Many people use it, but not many people take the time to explain it.

It doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with being deeply religious or living your life according to a strict set of rules and cultural norms.

What Is a Craniofacial Disorder?

A craniofacial disorder or anomaly refers to a category of deformities in the growth of the head and facial bones. Anomaly is a medical term that means “different from normal” or “irregular.” These types of anomalies are congenital (present at birth) and can occur in many different forms.
