Rebekah Lund, Owner, FDN-P, CCT
"Unlike many young women, I was lucky enough to be exposed to the power of natural healing at a young age. My mother was a traditional naturopath and nutritional consultant and I had the opportunity to see first-hand the impact that diet, lifestyle, strategic supplementation and detoxification could make on challenging health conditions while I worked in my mother's busy wellness center.
It was also here that I was first introduced to medical thermography and the vast benefits of this technology. I completed my certification as a clinical thermographer in 2009 at the American College of Clinical Thermology (ACCT) in Florida. I was also promoted to be operations manager at the wellness center for some time before it closed in 2014 due to the owner retiring.
This was when I decided to take a big leap of faith and opened Bloom Wellness Center. I wanted to continue providing thermography scans to our thousands of clients and from what I heard, my clients were pretty happy about that decision!
Countless times, clients asked if I would ever become a naturopath like my mother and for a long time I wasn't sure if that's what I wanted to pursue. But over the years, I continued to watch my thermography clients struggle with their health conditions despite seeing some of the best providers in Houston. I saw case after case of clients being treated for specific conditions or symptoms that just wasn't paying off in the long run because the underlying causes were not being addressed.
It was essentially my relationships and deep care for the wellbeing of my clients that inspired me to pursue further education and certification. Becoming a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P) was one of the best decisions I've made on my journey and I am honored to serve my clients in this new capacity.
As an FDN-P, I am trained to take a much deeper look at an individual's health history, symptoms, and advanced functional lab tests to identify the root causes perpetuating dysfunction in the body. Instead of trying to bandaid symptoms or treat separate pieces of the body, I take a root cause, whole-body approach. In addition to the customized protocols, my ongoing coaching throughout my clients' programs is a vital part in creating the accountability they need to see lasting results.
Whichever service you choose to utilize here, whether it be thermography, ultrasound, or health consultations and labs, we are honored to partner with you in pursuing optimal health."

Once you meet Bethany, you'll be put at ease. Not only is she an experienced certified thermographer (certified through ACCT in 2007) with an attention to detail and efficient with your time, but she is very personable. Clients commonly mention how relieved they are after their first scan because she made them feel comfortable, heard, and less anxious. Bethany believes that she is meeting each client in the middle of their own unique health journey and that they deserve her support and high standard of care to help them navigate their next steps.
Spending time with her husband and children is one of the highlights of her day! She loves trying new coffee shops and cafes around town, looking for fun outdoor spaces to take the kids, trying new recipes, and having gatherings with friends and family.
