Hi! I am Nancy Spahr and I am your certified colon hydrotherapist and certified body ecologist. I am excited that you are inquiring about colonics and would like you to learn more about me and what I can offer you on your journey to perfect health.
Getting "into" this business . . . Often people ask me how I “got into this business”. I became interested in colonics 5 years ago after my first visit with a colon hydrotherapist here in Indianapolis. I was one of those people who held on to the business card for a year and finally, out of desperation, and encouragement from a nutritionist, I decided to give it a try as a birthday gift to myself! The experience was amazing and I wondered why it took me so much time to get the courage to go.
Taking control of my health I have for most of my life had chronic constipation. It never occurred to me that it was a problem. However, as other symptoms began to take over my life, I began to investigate alternative approaches to healing. I had always been interested in looking at health differently. My young children in the early 80’s ate tofu and I had 2 homebirths in ‘81 and ‘82. But as life made many twists and turns, I found myself in a very deep depression and terrible fatigue. That is when nutrition and supplementation began to take a vital role in my life. (I oftentimes believe I could be the president of a supplement anonymous group!) Also, my regular visits to a holistic chiropractor was very important.
As I was making adjustments in my structural body and learning about nutrition, (AKA starting to take care of myself!) my life began to get more under control. Then, my mother had surgery to remove a one-foot part of her colon. Due to subsequent complications, she has not ever fully recovered. That prompted me to look at my own constipation and get serious about it.
Discovering the JJIII During the 4 years I was having colonics, I had the opportunity to visit many colon hydrotherapists and try many different devices around the country. During a vacation in New Mexico, I had a need for a colonic and sought someone in Sante Fe. She had the Jimmy John III device, which was new to me. It was the best colonic I had had in three years and I knew then that this would be my chosen profession. My desire is to offer the most comfortable equipment to my clients and the “bedside manner” that I would want from my colon hydrotherapist. I feel it is important that every client has a basic understanding of the digestive system that would lead them to making wise food and supplementation choices for their personal needs.
And then there was . . . . CANDIDA! During my healing journey, I had the opportunity to experience systemic Candida in a very real and uncomfortable way. It lead me to extensive research and I had countless tests performed by doctors who knew little, if anything, about this condition that over 80% of Americans suffer from. My personal dietary habits have changed dramatically as I gain a better understanding of the causes, symptoms and solutions to Candida (yeast) overgrowth. This growing passion has lead me to the Body Ecology Diet and Donna Gates, who is pioneering a new way (yet based on ancient principles) of rebuilding the inner ecosystem. I am now Certified by Donna Gates and her company to teach and counsel individuals and groups about BED.
Cleansing Waters is growing! My business has expanded to offer Cultured vegetable classes, BED support groups, and regular talks at Wild Oats. I am excited to introduce new and healing products such as the Digestive Care products of Advanced Naturals, Virgin Coconut Oil, Cultured Vegetables, Egg White Protein, Green Drinks, Aloe Gold and Metaberry by Oasis, Raw Butter and Kombu Noodles.
All of this is found at the "colonic suite" at my office on the northeast side of Indianapolis. It is a quiet and personal experience at Cleansing Waters where your comfort is my first concern. And don’t forget the humor. . . . Pooping jokes are always welcome!
