A Bit About Me
I came to Colon Hydrotherapy after experiencing a lifetime of digestive issues. I struggled with health issues my whole life, went to many Gastroenterologists and had many colonoscopies and other medical tests and diagnosis. I tried many assorted diets and health regimens.
When I was at the point of possibly having part of my colon removed, I finally gave colon hydrotherapy a try. I immediately felt better. To be honest my full healing plan included a plant based diet, intermittent fasting and fresh juice daily. I also did the Andreas Moritz Liver and Gallbladder Cleanse once a month for 6 months.
My health and my life changed in a miraculous way! I never knew what it felt like to have a belly that feels light and at ease. Looking at my own journey with health (and a late in life miracle) - I knew that I had to share this healing modality with others and spread the health:)
My Healing Journey
Pre-Birth
Early Years
School Years
Age 18 - 24
Age 25 - 57
Crisis
Healing
My mother was prescribed Tetracycline while pregnant with me (a drug later determined to cause birth defects).
As a baby and young child I had constant flus and colds. I was prescribed antibiotics over and over. At age 3 my tonsils were removed because the doctor was afraid I wouldn't be able to breathe.
The school lunch program often left me in the bathroom for the afternoon, and occasionally I was sent home. I eventually just made my own brown bag lunch daily.
My digestive issues became almost disabling - I went to Gastroenterologist after Gastroenterologist looking for solutions. Most of the things recommended ended up creating more problems. I had several colonoscopies and was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Celiacs disease.
I tried diets, exercise, different healing modalities and continued looking for a medical solution. My issues only got worse. I eventually developed allergies and sensitivities to almost everything! I had chronic constipation, skin rashes, restless leg syndrome, anemia and terrible hemorrhoids.
I was on a trip to Columbia when things got even worse. A bout of food poisoning left me in a crisis state. At my last colonoscopy the doctor discussed with me the possibility of needing to remove a part of my colon. I was afraid of what my diagnosis would be.
Before I could schedule a colonoscopy, I had my first colonic. I started with 2 colonics a week and changed to a fully plant based diet. Eventually I added intermittent fasting, fresh juice daily and monthly Liver and Gallbladder cleanses. I felt so good and knew that I was healing. It was so obvious and clear that my body was healing that I never bothered to get another colonoscopy. All of my symptoms went away, I lost 55 pounds in the process, and I haven't had even so much as a cold since.
