About Us
You'll feel safe at Bridges, and for good reason. Our clinic is the only hospital-based center of its kind in the metro-Denver area. We integrate mainstream, complementary, and alternative medicine, working with you to achieve emotional and spiritual balance.
All of our practitioners meet professional credentialing criteria for their specialties and are committed to giving you a level of service that sets us apart. As a member of the Exempla Lutheran healthcare team, we meet the medical center's best-practice standards of care.
Our Mission
Our mission is to bridge conventional medical treatments with a variety of rich healing traditions. Complementary therapies enhance healing and assist with physical, spiritual, and emotional balance. Used with conventional medicine, they give you the best of both worlds. Examples of integrative medicine include use of acupuncture and/or massage to help ease pain and discomfort following surgery, or a special diet to supplement cancer treatment. At Bridges, we only provide proven therapies with high-quality evidence of safety and effectiveness.
Integrative Health Nurse Consultation
Explore opportunities to integrate complementary treatment into your conventional medical or individual wellness plan. Your nurse will work with you to help you choose therapies based on a review of your health history and your goals and lifestyle. She can also provide lifestyle counseling and instruction in relaxation and stress management techniques.
Who can benefit from a consulting session?
- Newcomers who wants to learn which complementary medicine therapies might be most beneficial
- Newly diagnosed cancer patients
- Those who want individualized plans for wellness, stress management or relaxation
- Surgery patients looking for alternative ways to reduce side effects and get the best outcome
