My Story
I was first introduced to colonics or colon hydrotherapy in
2006 when I developed a mysterious illness. I lost 45 pounds and muscle mass in 7 months (without
trying), and felt poisoned day in and day out. It was a very frightening time
in my life, especially when conventional medicine was unable to treat or
understand why this was happening to me.
I approached my first session of colon hydrotherapy with
much apprehension. I envisioned somebody in a tie-dyed shirt with a large
garden hose ready to work on me and feared my colon would explode in the
process. If it had not been for the coaxing of my trusted acupuncturist and my
dire need I most likely would never have experienced the healing benefits of
colonics. After my first session I walked out feeling great, without the
poisoned feeling I had felt everyday for many months. This poisoned feeling
would eventually return the day after my colonic, but for that time I felt
“normal”. I continued on with colonics once a week until March 2007 when I left
the building I taught in. Two weeks later my symptoms disappeared.
Although my symptoms disappeared within a 14 day time frame
I still felt like I had been hit by a mack truck. I wasn’t sure whether my
mysterious illness would return or
whether I would be able to return to teaching. On a leap of faith and possibly
insanity I reluctantly left teaching and went to school to learn colon
hydrotherapy, acupressure, abdominal shiatsu, reflexology and breathing
techniques. I earned my International Certification with the International
Association of Colon Hydrotherapy, (I-ACT.org ) in 2007. I fell in love with the world of
natural healthcare and healing. Soon after, Inner Harmony was born.
One year
later I would develop Stage IV Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma that had metastisized and
developed a softball-sized tumor in the left lobe of my liver. Once again colon
hydrotherapy would help save my life after natural treatments had failed and in
horror, I had to undergo chemotherapy or die.
Prior to my initial illness I was living life in the fast
lane, working as a part-time reading teacher, taking graduate classes an hour
and a half away, being a wife, and a mother of two active teenage boys. I
didn’t think much about my diet and/or my lifestyle choices, which I believe
put me right up front and center to be a candidate to develop some kind of
disease. I grew up on processed and fast foods and
had passed that habit on to my own children.
Both my illness’ caused me to take a much closer look
at my life, my diet and my lifestyle. Through research and study I have since
become primarily a vegan (obstaining from all animal protein). I have learned a
great deal about healing from and
preventing cancer, cancer fighting foods and recipes, super foods, immune
enhancers, digestion and disruptions to digestion that cause disease, herbs and
essential oils for wellness and healing, the importance of an alkaline diet/body and enhancing our body
with the all important probiotics.
As a colon hydrotherapist and owner of Inner Harmony I enjoy
working in partnership with my clients on such issues as IBS, constipation,
candida overgrowth, skin disorders, detoxification, weight loss, allergies,
cancer prevention/survival and using colonics for natural colonoscopy preparation. I
look forward to meeting you and discussing your goals for colon hydrotherapy.
