Bridge Health Clinic partnering with adaptogen elixir maker
Formulae and Bridge Health Clinic announced they are partnering on the Bridge Health Clinic Adaptogen Program and the clinician-guided Adaptogen Division model.
Bridge Health Clinic in Loveland is the first clinical implementation site, according to a news release.
The program combines individualized guidance from Kristy Fraley, NP-C, co-owner of Bridge Health Clinic; functional-nutrition and lifestyle support from Teri Geiger, CFN, co-owner; and Formulae adaptogenic and botanical elixirs.
“Patients should not have to navigate adaptogens and botanicals on their own,” Fraley said in the release. “This program gives us a practical structure for discussing wellness goals, reviewing health history and current medications, selecting appropriate elixirs, and helping patients make informed adjustments within their broader care plan.”
The Bridge program is available to established patients. There is no enrollment or membership fee.
Bridge currently offers 14 active Formulae formulations, including nine core elixirs, and an exclusive proprietary formula hair-vitality elixir currently available only through Bridge Health Clinic. Additional practice-exclusive formulations are in development.
Bridge Health Clinic is a Loveland functional-medicine clinic offering functional & regenerative medicine, primary care, functional nutrition and hormone therapy.
Formulae is a Denver-based developer of adaptogenic and botanical elixirs.
