Health & Nutrition Services:
This page briefly introduces you to the services offered at Bridge to
Better Health, LLC. Each modality presents a different view into your current health status and
they are valuable tools for people seeking natural ways
to build and maintain their health.
At Bridge to Better Health, Sherri Lund offers the following services:
The services offered at Bridge to Better Health were chosen with you in
mind. Sherri Lund has searched modalities that provide a painless form of
analysis, allowing her to quickly and efficiently uncover areas of your health
that are out of balance. With her training, she can give
recommendations that can help restore that balance that your body desires. To
read more about a particular service, click on the title you are interested in.
Why do you offer more than one modality?
While at a conference, Dr. Jack Tips compared getting a
health analysis to buying a home. In the example, someone interested in
finding out more about this house could look through the front window and get an
idea of the condition of the home from that angle. Maybe there's carpet,
tile or hardwood floors. Does the wallpaper need to be replaced?
This would be similar to having one type of
modality done, for example Iridology.
Getting another view from the side would give additional information such as
the condition of the kitchen appliances. Still, a peek from another window
would give even more information. In utilizing several modalities such as QRA,
EFT and Eyology, Sherri can broaden her understanding of your health picture. You
have the opportunity to understand your body in a
new way, how it is affected by your world, and how you can make the most of your
life.
Quantum Reflex Analysis
 Quantum Reflex Analysis (QRA)
is one of the main pillars of this practice. This technique helps promote rapid recovery,
first by allowing us to
restore the body's energetic field. One of the first steps to health is to
restore the biofield. When the body's energetic field, or biofield, is
disrupted or chaotic, it's unable to function as efficiently as it is designed.
In addition to uncovering imbalances within the biofield, QRA also helps
uncover organs and glands that are weak as well as pinpoint specific nutrients that
can rebalance these weaknesses. With these things in place, your body has a
greater capacity to heal itself.
The technique associated with QRA is the Bi-Digital O-Ring, a university-proven
muscle testing system. Sherri includes a nutritional consultation with this
option.

 Another
major facet in our office is DITI (Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging) or
Thermography. Thermography is a non-invasive clinical scan used to detect and monitor a number of diseases
and physical injuries. These digital images show the thermal or
temperature abnormalities within the body.
Medical Thermography may be helpful with the following conditions:
Thermographic images are taken by qualified thermographers certified with
ACCT, the American College of Clinical Thermology. These images are then
interpreted by specially trained medical doctors who then provide a report for
the client and his or her health practitioner. For more information,

NAET uses a combination of energy balancing, testing, and treatment
procedures from Oriental and Western medicine to balance the body. Dr.
Nambudripad has been using these techniques since 1983 and has seen stubborn
conditions such as ADD, eczema, and even autism symptoms clearing once allergies
have been addressed and the body rebalanced.
Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET) is a painless, natural, and
non-invasive treatment used to desensitize, reduce, or permanently eliminate
various food, chemical, and environmental allergies.
Allergies may be known, such as when you start sneezing immediately after
smelling an allergen. But many people have undisclosed unknown allergies
that my not manifest immediately upon contact. These can go unnoticed forever,
causing the body to constantly react and eventually developing into a painful or
otherwise dis-eased condition.
Most health practitioners will admit that it isn't just eating good food that
counts, it is what gets into the cells, what is assimilated, that actually feeds
your body. But what if your body reacted to something in, say broccoli or
spinach, even if it was organic? And what if your body reacted to sources of
Vitamin C? Then anything you consumed that had Vitamin C in it would cause a
reaction. Your body would resist the goodness it needs and health issues would
appear. The immune system has to have Vitamin C available or it is only a matter
of time before something develops.
Depending on the person, an allergic reaction may manifest in a number of ways. In one
person, an allergen may bring on depression, in someone else they may have joint or fibromyalgia pain, in another person, they may struggle with brain fog.
Fortunately, Dr. Nambudripad's vast experience in Western and Oriental
medicine provided a breakthrough. Now people are finding freedom from allergies,
known and unknown, and living a normal life.
In her book, Say Goodbye to Your Allergies, Dr. Nambudripad says NAET can give relief from multitudes of commonly seen health
disorders, those that originally started with some allergic reactions. It
requires patience on the part of the practitioner as well as the patient. Sometimes
people experience immediate relief but many people need a number of office
visits to feel better, especially with long-term health issues. While it does
not work in every case, statistics show that it offers satisfying results to
more than 80 percent of allergic patients who receive proper NAET treatments and
cooperate with the practitioner.
NAET is not a magic cure. It is hard work based on proven Oriental medical
practices. If you are willing to work hard, and willing to make changes in your
lifestyle, Dr. Nambudripad says, "you can get relief of any allergy-based
medical symptoms" mentioned in her many books.
Clients interested in starting a NAET program are encouraged to read Say
Goodbye to Illness or Say Goodbye to Your Allergies. They may also
listen to the audio version of Say Goodbye to Your Allergies. You may
purchase copies on line at www.NAET.com
or, to save on shipping costs, you can come by our office. We have these books
as well as others available.

Emotional Freedom (EFT)
 Research
shows that more than 85% of all illness may be related to emotions.
This is the statement that caused Sherri Lund to investigate further and became the topic
of her dissertation. Insomnia, digestive
issues, high blood pressure and the like are obvious ways our emotions can
affect our health. We've found that emotions can affect it in other ways, too.
A person's emotions are closely tied to their thoughts and beliefs, and they weave in and out of the
physical body, bringing either strength or weakness as they go. EFT is
phenomenal in rapidly helping people let go of pain on many levels and
empowering them to move into areas they felt unable to go before. Family
life and self-esteem can be greatly changed for good.
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is the modality used at Bridge to Better
Health for emotional and personal breakthrough and it is another major component
of our practice. Sherri is excited about the
possibilities available for people that use EFT.
She has launched
www.ExperienceBreakthrough.com as an offshoot of Bridge to Better Health and
invites you to visit that site as well.

A build up of toxins can cause someone to appear older than they are and make
them feel as if they are older. Wrinkled
skin, aches and pains, and muddled thinking are a few signs of aging that can be
reduced as toxins are removed.
You don't have to be a fan of Botox to want to look good. There is something
very attractive in someone who is healthy and confident. However, it isn't
enough to just exercise and eat right. While these are important for health, exercise and good food do not address the toxic build-up that looms
inside.
One approach to anti-aging is through detoxification.
Many people are realizing the need to detoxify the body from pesticides and
other chemicals, but there are additional toxins that can put a burden on the
body. Some of these toxins can come from external sources such as heavy metals
or they can be created internally because of imbalances within the body. The
bottom line is that toxins need to be removed for the body to feel and look
really good.
Many practitioners recommend doing a general cleanse once a year. That is good
advice for just about everyone, although we recommend that pregnant and nursing women
avoid detox programs. (We do think it is wonderful for both parents to
go through a cleanse to prepare for pregnancy, however.)
At our office, we recommend a variety of cleansing methods depending on the situation and the person.
One type of detox we use that may set us apart from other practices is the
ancient form of mudpacks. These are an efficient way to remove toxins and
to alleviate some of the burden on the kidneys, liver, lymph and other organs.
As the body is detoxified, the toxic load is lifted and the body can focus its
healing energies as it was designed.
Even negative emotions are a form of toxins that can affect how you feel.
Whether the toxins come from heavy metals, chemicals, drug residuals, or some
other source, safely removing them can dramatically bring a new sense of
well-being. At Bridge to Better Health, we use QRA and EFT to help with the
detoxification process.

When your pH is in the correct balance, you not only feel better but many
practitioners say your body is less likely to have candida, infections, and other
serious conditions such as cancer.
Most people today have bodies that are too acidic. This can happen because of
diet, stress, and negative emotions. Having a body that is too alkaline can be a
problem, too. In fact, most sick people have their pH out
of the desired range. The body works best when it is in balance and it is
constantly striving to maintain that balance. Your pH levels can be markers to
see how balanced you are.
Proper pH is a reflection of oxygen levels within the body and when the pH is
too acidic or too alkaline, all systems within the body are stressed.
There are three fluids used to check pH: blood, urine and saliva. At Bridge to
Better Health, we recommend you periodically check your urine at home to
determine what your pH levels currently are. The desired range for urine pH is 6.4-7.0.
Foods, emotions, infections, and conditions within the teeth can all affect pH
levels. Balancing pH is unique to each individual and is affected by lifestyle,
health history, and current symptoms. In considering all of these things, we
make recommendations and then follow-up to see how the pH is responding.
Having your pH in the optimum zone is one of the main steps to health and we are
happy to help you get there.

Iridology
 Iridology (pronounced eye'-rid-ol-ogy) is the science of studying the iris or the colored portion
of the eye. Trained Iridologists interpret the markings within the iris as they
relate to inherited weakness, your ability to “bounce back” after an illness,
and how quickly you might respond to a nutritional program. Other signs can
reveal such things as areas of stress, inflammation, toxicity and more.
The information discovered in an
Iridology appointment helps clients know more about their bodies and how they
can support it. This appointment is helpful for people and does not
interfere with work you are doing with
other doctors or natural health practitioners. For more information,
visit the Iridology page on this website.

Sclerology
 Sclerology (pronounced
scle–rol'-ogy) is the interpretation of the sclera or the white part
of the eye. With this modality, Sherri studies the red lines, various
colors and gels seen in your eye to help locate the root cause of a current
issue. Finding the root cause enables Sherri to make recommendations that
will be most effective in your recovery. It does not interfere with
medications and can be integrated with both orthodox and complementary medicine.
For more information, visit the Iridology page on this website.

Eyology
 An Eyology (pronounced eye–ol'-ogy)
session merges the Iridology and Sclerology modalities, providing a wealth of
helpful information. This appointment is longer because it incorporates
all aspects of the Iridology and Sclerology appointments into this one Eyology
appointment. Because in this appointment two modalities are combined, this session provides
additional information and helps strengthen the recommendations Sherri makes.
Most clients interested in an eye analysis choose this type of appointment. For more information,
visit the Eyology page on this website.

Saliva testing allows us to see your hormone levels and if they are in balance.
These tests are easily taken at home and sent to a lab who provides the data
that we then go over a few weeks later. This Report of Findings includes a
review of this data and a consultation with recommendations for a program unique
to your situation.
Saliva panels may be recommended with conditions that include:
- Painful menstrual cycles
- Fibroid issues
- Estrogen dominance
- Low sex-drive
- Loss of hair
- Mustache growth on a woman
- Infertility issues
Men benefit from these panels as well. Since they can have low
testosterone or elevated estrogen, both of which have their own list of
symptoms, it is important that these hormones be balanced.
Saliva panels are also easy ways to monitor your health program to confirm
that the things you are doing to correct hormonal imbalances are working.
These tests are non-invasive and take very little time to do.

Environmental
Protection & Consultations
 More
and more people are getting concerned about environmental pollution caused from
EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies). Some people have noticed dramatic changes in their health when
these environmental and energetic toxins are cleared from their home or office. Memory issues,
headaches, fatigue and the ability to concentrate are just a few symptoms that
have decreased or diminished when these are addressed. Environmental consultations
can be held in our office or, for a more specific appointment, conducted in
the home or office you are most concerned about. For more information, visit
the Environmental Health page on this website.
