Brigham Chelson, Office Manager
He was born and raised in a small town in East Idaho called St. Anthony. He grew up with a love for sports; both playing and watching. His ability to play sports was stopped early on because of a rare hip disease. Between wanting to improve his golf game and postponing a hip replacement for as long as possible, Brigham is passionate about learning how to live a healthy life, which rooted his interest in becoming a part of our team, and has begun his own Wellness journey here at Elevation Now. Brigham has spent the past two years as a staff assistant in the Idaho state senate, so naturally he has a passion for politics, his family (including his beautiful bride Ally), and in the future hopes to attend law school.

Coach Kait Christopherson, Fitness Trainer
Born and raised on the shores of Lake Erie in Pennsylvania, Kait’s been in motion for as long as she can remember. Her dad had her in a pair of hockey skates around the time she could walk on her own two feet and she spent her childhood skating on frozen ponds in the winter and running through the woods and swimming in the lake in the summer. As she grew up, play slowly turned into a passion for health and fitness and after a series of traumatic injuries left her in daily pain by the age of 25, she found herself drawn to both holistic chiropractic care and mindful forms of exercise like yoga, Pilates, and hiking. She realized then how much power we, as individuals, have to reclaim the health of our bodies and our minds through an integrative approach.
