A Bridge To Wholeness
A Bridge To Wholeness, hosted by Jennifer Crisp, is your resource for the latest information on health and healing for the 21st century. Western medicine plays an important role in keeping people healthy but should not be the only option people have. At the intersection of health, we find plenty of proven alternatives to prescription, surgery, and unnecessary testing. We are bringing experts from both sides of the health and wellness aisle together to understand each other and learn how to work together. And to introduce you, our listener, to the many options you have that look at you holistically, not as a diagnosis, as a person, not a patient.
