Welcome to the Bridge to Health

    Welcome to The Bridge to Health website. My name is Bonnie  Groessl, and I want to thank you for your interest. The Bridge to Health’s mission is to provide an integrative approach to health, healing and wellness in a holistic, counseling-based setting. My emphasis is on  helping clients access their self-healing abilities, bridging the gap between traditional and non-traditional therapies. This approach can be beneficial whether your interest lies in achieving optimal health or in dealing with a specific physical issue.

Let me tell you a bit about myself. I have worked in the health care field since 1976, first as a nurse’s aide, then as a registered nurse (1981), and finally as a nurse practitioner (1995). After treating patients in a primary care setting (internal medicine) for the first five years as a nurse practitioner, my practice shifted toward headache and chronic pain management in a clinic neurology department. I have been a migraine sufferer myself since 1982.

Over the years, I have seen how traditional medicine outcomes can be enhanced by therapies that may be considered non-traditional or complementary. I have also learned how our minds can influence our own healing abilities and general well-being. There is much we can do through lifestyle choices and good nutrition to optimize our health and help prevent the onset of degenerative diseases. We can also help our bodies be in the best possible condition to recover from an injury or illness.

My interests led me to pursue additional education and training in several integrative medicine modalities, including nutritional medicine, mind-body techniques and energy medicine. Maintaining the ability to prescribe traditional medications when appropriate allows me to provide a more holistic approach to health needs.

May you have a healthy and fulfilling life, filled with peace, joy and happiness.

Bonnie
