"I wish to thank you for being the first Doctor to "see me". I wish to thank you for extending your deep grace which allowed me to unfold myself and begin this difficult work. I wish to thank you for your perfect generosity, boundless patience and magnificent sensitivity.

These days are lighter and brighter! My spirit & mind are building up again! My body is slowly healing; I am healing! Fantastic, impossible, wondrous stuff!

Christina, I salute the healer, the woman and the enduring soul in you. With deep appreciation, respect and affection"

"I have been seeing Dr. Bjorndal for my on-going healthcare for over five years. Dr. Bjorndal is an extremely knowledgeable and empathetic naturopathic physician. She is interested in bringing her patients to whole body wellness by treating both the physical and emotional root causes. Dr. Bjorndal has a wide variety of safe, healthy alternatives to modern pharmaceuticals that encourage patient systems to re-activate and function efficiently.

My overall health has improved significantly. I am able to manage my weight effectively, I have more energy and am able to handle my emotional challenges without anti-depressants."

"A number of years ago, after a "last straw" moment with mainstream medicine, I came knocking on Dr. Bjorndal's door. I recall having to fill out many pages of medical/personal history that quickly revealed she would know more about me than all of my other doctors combined. That first appointment was tremendously refreshing, as I was convinced of her sincere desire to help me to be the healthiest I could be in mind, body and spirit.

Instead of being handed a prescription for something I wasn't comfortable taking, for reasons that were unclear, I was being educated. Instead of a 'band-aid' coverup, Dr. Bjorndal was digging to find the roots of my health issues. And the more she began to educate me, the more I began to research even further on my own. I was no longer a confused bystander but an active participant in my health - and that was exhilarating.

It was incredibly eye-opening to have a doctor who acknowledged that mind, body and spirit are intertwined and the road to optimum health took a close look at all three. I began, with Dr. Bjorndal's help, wisdom, advice and encouragement, to make lifestyle decisions that would lead me down this path toward my optimum health. It has caused a ripple effect, that continues years after our first appointment, of making educated choices and continuing to find root causes so that I can not just survive but thrive."

“When I met you, I had recently quit smoking and was likely still a little bigger than I needed to be. I weighed (at my peak) 240 lbs and now weigh 170 lbs. when I met you, I was wondering if I would have enough breath to make it to the parking lot, I was on blood pressure medication and was perpetually tired. When my friend asked me if I was interested in Naturopathic Medicine, I said that I was and took it as an opportunity to try to improve myself a little more.

What I wasn't prepared for, was meeting someone who actually took an interest in ME, not just my health ... someone who actually believed in the connection between mind and body and the role of the "owner" of the body as part of a "wellness program". You exposed me to a number of things that eventually turned me into a radically different person, for which I have nobody but YOU to thank. I am now a decade older and in the best health of my life; even hoping to qualify for Boston next year.

I truly think of you almost every single day as I go about my life ... I could be taking a fish oil supplement (molecularly distilled, pharmaceutical grade, of course to eliminate any mercury or other "nasties"), a multi-vitamin, going to the gym, seeing my osteopath, any number of things...even deciding whether or not ("Not" is the answer, by the way) to get a flu shot, and you are part of my decision-making process. I will forever be grateful for the door in my life that you opened ...it is the greatest gift someone can give to another, thank you Christina!"

"I went to Dr. Bjorndal four years ago because there was no place on my body that didn’t hurt. My doctor said I had Fibromyalgia and suggested a treatment of anti inflammatory drugs. Being that I wanted to be healthy I chose to seek the advice of a naturopathic doctor. Dr. Bjorndal listened to my story of life and has helped me not only to nearly eliminate the pain my body was holding as well she has enlightened me to my total body’s wellness.

Through such tools as: morning Pages, miss matched socks, supplements, detoxification programs and never letting me forget I have the power within to change any or all things that were causing my dis-ease ... With her guidance I am looking forward to getting older and finding more freedom from the complaints that I develop when my body, mind and soul are not in agreement ... Thank you very much for your wisdom."
